Maybe I'm not reading the right forums but I've NEVER heard of anyone getting shut down for using a business card for personal spending.
I remember back when I had the Amex Plat Biz card and people would say, Amex wants you to be spending at Whole Food and not Walmart (if you know what I mean...) but over the last year, I realized that's just nonsense.
I used my card all over the place, and didn't have a problem.
When I read about people getting shut down, I've noticed two things in particular, a lot of them had a Chase checking account or/and a lot were spending and then paying off their debt repeatedly over a month to free up the credit limit. But almost all the reports I read had people manufacturing spend.
The two exceptions I remember reading about was one who lost 380k because something totally unrelated to MF, and the other because (back when vanillas were available at OD) spent close to $50k exclusively at Office Depot.
