$850 usually in FF language amounts 85,000 points.. So a net advantage of almost 50,000 points or $500..

What was the logic to devalue the points?.. Was there added value having the Esso points over AE points?..

And where does the BA points come into play.. or is that another name for Esso points?

From my calculation you earn 1 Esso point per dollar spent, but only 1 AE point on $3 spent on gas..

So when you converted the AE points to Esso.. did you get triple the amount of Esso points or more?
