New opportunity for FF miles from credit cards?
In today's Los Angeles times there is an article about a new internet service from BanK One in Chicago which allows you to send money to another person over the internet. The article says that the funds can come from your checking, debit and CREDIT CARDS in increments of $500! Details didn't answer all questions (ie how often can you do this ala Chase and Beatta and whether or not the transfer will be considered a purchase or cash advance).
Other than the $1 service charge
, sounds pretty good? If there are no other "catches", 500 miles at a time for $1 is $.002/mile!
