There was a guy on another thread I use -- the one about funding accts with a CC--and since a certain acct option is no longer available, he said he was out of luck when trying to spend $1000 more on an AMEX to get a certain status.

I think he said he does buy the US mint coins, but I think in the case of trying to, say, reach a status threshold before a cut off date or something, paying a tax CC fee could be a good reason to do things... I dunno, it does depend on the user and their particular situation.
