I haven't been able to get in for hours now.

I've tried off and on since early morning, no luck at all. I thought it was a problem with my User ID or password. It just hangs and then errors out.

Is there any low cost or quick way to do this such as going to the self check out line in a store and paying separately for each item? Or paying a bill electronically in small increments?

Haven't bothered to try to login over the past 2 days,...but back in April, there was a day where you couldn't log in for about 14 hours.

I wouldn't worry about it.

Comcast will let you do this, for example. Ebay too. I think with BD though, you have to have at least a few different merchants to qualify. Knowing how strict they are on other things, I try to make all of mine unique transactions, for anything that's just a few dollars.

Not an issue. Of the required 36 transactions needed for the Visa checkcard bonus,...I believe 32 or 33 of mine were through eBay/PayPal,...ranging from $.30 to $1.90. I mostly purchased low cost, "electronic trading cards", which didn't involve shipping costs.

My 5,000 mile bonus posted 2 weeks ago.

Even at the cashier counter you can still split up purchases into small transactions. I have to do a monthly 2 x 5 Non-Pin transactions on 2 Chase Continental Business Checking Accounts which would carry the linked personal checking accounts both free of maintenance fee AND allows the linked Freedom credit card to earn 10 bonus pt and 10% bonus on each purchase (a very good benefit I may add, making the Freedom earning rate to 5 to 10% if structured it properly.)

My preferred method for the Non-Pin debit card trannies is to drop by drugstores like Walgreen or CVS when their weekly ad have some 0.25 price items and do the 2 x 5 trannies in alternate cards, be done in less than 10 minutes.

It's not time yet. It would happen at the end of the business day.

Not that I'm very optimistic . . .

As are mine. Huh. Earlier than expected.

Let's just hope they submit the file to AA tonight so we get the miles tomorrow.
