That is all well and good but does not help me, I was trying to mop up the 200$ before the fee hits in February
:-)
The UA travel Bank was the easiest 200$ -I would buy 100$ x2 on the family cards and then 2 days later all done!
Any good ideas now deeply appreciated
The DL and WN options are not easy
For DL you need to buy a gift card - then pay from that card then add funds from Amex - then the funds disappear in 1 yr when you cancel ticket
WN - you have to progressively book more and more expensive tickets and pay with Amex !
Gets a bit complex with 10 cards for family and friends
Help!
can we start a petition to UA from Amex freeloaders (I mean card holders) asking for travel bank?
