For the balance of the promo, I called in to Customer Service, had them look up the promo rules, and then had them make the payment in such a manner that it qualified. I don't know what I did wrong, or what CS did differently. I only learned that Customer Service will make a "qualified" bill pay for you....and you should just let them handle it.
