So I was under the understanding that real time rewards for travel purchases earned you 1.5 cpp on redemption. Indeed my first RTR redemption for an Uber charge gave me a value of 1.5cpp. I then received a RTR notification today asking if I wanted to redeem 6500 points for a charge. Since I so far have only been putting travel charges on the card I said yes. Now I have had a chance to see what the 6500 points were for an it was for a $65 EZPass charge.

Is EZPass considered travel by US Bank for purposes of earning 3x?
If a charge earns 3x should I be able to redeem points at 1.5cpp or is the list of categories for 1.5 cpp RTR redemptions different than the list of 3x earning categories.

Hoping to understand a little better. Regardless, I will call to ask if they can make a 1 time exception.

Thanks
