I didn't get credit for a B6 Even More Space separate post-ticketing transaction. When I called about it, making it very clear that it was a qualifying seat upgrade fee, the rep "opened a case" with the credit appearing within a couple of weeks.

Frontier Airlines - DEN Membership - Travel credit question
I'm trying to book frontier airlines tickets for the first time for family (4 tickets). I see that if I join DEN the DEN discount flight overall price (lower by $125) is coming out lower than the membership price ($99).
I also have the BOA travel rewards card that will reimburse the frontier DEN membership price.
Will Frontier DEN membership price of $99 show as a separate transaction in the BOA site? Want to know if this will be reimbursed as part of the $100 annual travel credit.

I had upgraded my Alaska seat to premium and was charged $148.99 on 10/05 but it is not reimbursed yet. I am wondering if it needs a manual override. Anyone had success calling?

I probably missed this, but Cardcash doesn't even seem to be buying AA gift cards anymore. They were the other option for laundering the credit.
Update -- something must have changed, because I cannot find any site purchasing AA gift cards.

Update to my previous post, my trip got cancelled at the last minute. I have no other flights scheduled for the year. Are there any options for monetizing the $100 credit other than a Southwest gift card?
Update -- I just checked Cardcash again, and they are buying AA gift cards again, offering $80. So slightly better than the $76 for SW.
