I just think its scary, even for 'average' customers who may be working for an employer on shaky financial grounds, if indeed, AC is able to use denial of future (fully-paid) service to an individual as a form of recourse against non-payment. A fly a bunch on AC for a mining company that stops paying its AC flight pass bills, and you get denied when you try to take your own family to Florida for a vacation after you're terminated sort of deal.
I think the difference here is that your company has
stopped paying it's bills vs a charge back from the credit card company. And presumably AC is contacting everyone imaginable at your company to collect payment. And presumably you book your family travel through a separate TA.
