It's not just that it's on the website today (as it clearly shouldn't be). How many people signed up in the last month expecting the card would give them rollover SQM at the end of this year? After all, that's exactly what the advertising and terms and conditions said. AC *knew* such people were signing up having been told something false. They just didn't care.

In fact, these changes have been in the works for years. Sure, it's hard to market a credit card when you are planning to change the benefits. But that's their problem, it's not an excuse to lie to your customers.
What are you expecting here...truth in advertising? From an airline that every 3rd week runs a "Sale" where the sale fares are higher than you could have bought the day before?
