I purchased a ticket for my daughter with my travel bank funds adding her elevate number to the reservation. I have always received credit for any flights taken with travel bank funds. I am being told now that she will not earn credit for the flights because travel bank flights do not earn points. Does not make sense since I originally spent the money on a VX flight which I cancelled and put in travel bank and used to pay for this flight. Do I chalk it up to the Dallas Call Center gold line being untrained and ignore the fact that her reservation reflects 0 points to be earned on flight and deal with it later? Or have things changed? After all, the receipt reflects the fare paid.
