disconcerting...

Found some in TX. Manager rang me up. I commented that I hadn't seen these in od in a while. His reply: "yeah, chase made us pull all of them before because of people abusing 5x points. We worked it out so these cards no longer get points, so I don't think many people will be buying them." I played dumb, but he had that "I know why you're buying these and you're going to be disappointed" vibe going. Wouldn't surprise me; as chase can site the t&c about cash equivalents.

He was pretty well informed about manu spend. I told him I didn't know what he meant, as I use them to pay my taxes because they're debit.

My billing cycle just ended 2 days ago. So anyone who bought these with an upcoming cycle end, please post what points you got, if any...
