I know the mice print says we can change anything at any time, even make YOU pay US for the miles, take your firstborn, blah blah blah. I also know that just 'cause it's in writing don't make it enforceable. Call me naive, but how can they get away with this?</font>
It's strangely comforting to know that this sort of lilly-livered whingeing is not exclusively the domain of Australians.

Unless I'm very much mistaken, YOU freely chose to join the AA programme, and YOU were given adequate notice of the terms and conditions of that programme - including AA's right to alter or cancel at any time.

So what, precisely, is the nature of your complaint?

I've really had a gutfull of this sort of girly crying about everything that doesn't turn out exactly as expected. In case you hadn't noticed, there's just a touch of the "dynamic" when it comes to the nature of the world we live in.
