For the churners amongst us this shouldn't be an issue- get card, charge $750, cancel card after miles post. But for many people this will be a problem/concern.
This has started in July 2009 with AT&T Universal Cards issued by Citi. I think I even reported this somewhere in this forum, but can not find it now. So this is not new, unless they are doing it across the board.
