Chase, Citibank, AMEX are real sticklers now for compliance. So if what you are saying is true, those bloggers would not have the links any longer; or you are saying that Chase, Citibank, AMEX (etc.) have decided to NOT enforce compliance standards on BA bloggers. Which I know is not the case.

The credit card affiliation is between the individual blogger and credit card company, and they are responsible for proper compliance. Sure, they will get warnings, but there is a reason it is not so easy to get direct links anymore.

So, I am confused.
