Are you losing those 800 because you didnt get to 3000 before 12/31 or will they then fix the 3/1 ratio as a year-end number? Does anybody have any clarity on this?
They credit you with the 10k, after a multi-week lag, every time earn another 30k, with no effort to back-date. So, normally I'd say you should be ok. However, now that they're moving away from that batching effective Jan 1 (supposedly), God only knows how they'll handle that transition.
