As far as I know, this 32 credits offer is a special targeted offer available only to those who received the e-mail (or, maybe, also sent out in snail mail).

As others have indicated:

Be happy!

It's a great deal!
Thanks for the reasonable response. It amuses me that some people LEAPED to the defense of the credit card company as if I was trying to steal food from a homeless person. Most (all?) credit card companies will bend you over a barrel in a second if they can and point to the 47 pages of fine print as justification for doing so. I was just asking what the rules are in regards to cancellation. If they worked in a way that allowed me to cancel, I'd have no problem doing so. If not, no big deal.
