damn...

wish I read this before redeeming $425 towards $1000 airfare!

this ... is kinda stupid IMHO. If you allow for statement credits, you should allow me to pay in full. I guess they want me to carry a balance and earn them some interest

Looks like I'm going to have to beef up the MS and make sure I have enough points.

What is also irritating is that I was planning on using the 10% rebate towards the same purchase, which you can't do either
