When you are buying miles you are buying a pig in a poke, and AS tells you “this is your pig and this is your poke.”
Probably a decent idea, if dated given that this thread has been dead for months. Note that Elliott is on the record as thinking FFPs are scams.
Another T&Cs worshipper. Corporate to consumer T&Cs (especially the ones displayed as part of a long text) mean nothing because they are unilateral, one-sided, not been the subject of a fair negotiation and made to protect the corporation.
