So you are paying $6 in fees for 768 miles; that's 128 miles per dollar, plus whatever you use to actually make the purchase. If you use these VGC for purchases that would others only earn you 1 mile or point per dollar then the 768 portal miles are just extra, in exchange for the $6 fee. The only issue is that it's $2k/month maximum.

I used them for my health insurance premiums, monthly utility bills, and to pay some medical bills last month. I plan on doing the same this month.
