Awful. I called Barclays just now. They advised that I can’t change the billing cycle that quickly. It takes a full cycle to go into effect. And paying the card balance doesn’t do anything.

And I’m not sure how practical taking a flight would be on such short notice.

QQ would I need to complete the flight to get the miles. Or just book it? I’m guessing complete it. Because I already have some frontier flights in Feb.

Thanks!
