Barclays says I can redeem for any travel related charges from the past 120 days.

Does my account go into a negative balance if I don't have any recent charges since my statement closed?
You get a statement credit when redeeming, so if you're currently at $0 and you redeem for $100 you'll then be -$100 and can ask for a check to be mailed to you.
