I have read on this forum somewhere that if you have a miles earning credit card, make purchases, then transfer that balance out to another card, that you still earn miles on that money.

However, when calling Delta AMEX and United VISA both told me that you DO NOT earn miles on transfer in NOR transfer out.

Can anyone clarify this point? Thanks

The WN (Southwest) Visa allows you to earn 5,000 "miles" (actually 5 credits) on balance transfers executed during the first 90 days.
