It is still a pending charge 3 days later so I'm hopeful that the final charge will post in January, but I'm very worried that I will lose the $700 2025 MQD I was counting on. Has anyone ever successfully challenged a transaction date?
Well, I've got some bad news for you. It appears that Amex uses MST for it's transaction dates.
