AA cancelation policy on flight booked with eGF / electronic gift card
What is the current AA policy for cancelation on domestic basic economy (Most restricted) flight booked using AA eGF? Does the 24 hour still apply? If so, does refund go back to those eGF? or to a voucher that expires?

When I did this a few weeks ago with e voucher (not basic economy though) the refund of the evoucher issued as a paper voucher....
not ideal but at least the expiration date was extended to a year from the paper voucher issue date.
24 hour policy should still apply

Form of payment is not relevant to either the DOT rule or AA's more liberal cancellation policy. The sole question is the form of the non-cash part of the refund. While the paper voucher is an outdated PITA, it is roughly the same thing as a card in terms of impact.
