not exactly true...you can float the 3k from card to card for as long as you want...just make sure the 3 cards have different closing dates:cool: You are effectively using a credit card company's money to earn points/miles/cashback. This is one of the best way to use MS.

Floating it for MS purposes is one thing, but doing it because you cannot afford to pay you tax bill is an entirely different thing. Whatever floats your boat though, but I would not be worried about earning miles and taking holidays if I was that low on funds that I needed to float a 3k tax bill indefinitely.

For some it is not a discount but rather a negative interest cash advance - you are paid to take their money and use it.

Aha. So it's possible that "someone didn't get the memo!" :D

I'm guessing he thinks a large portion of former VR purchasers will be moving over to OV.

Frankly, I don't see it. OV is quite a bit more involved and time-consuming for MS purposes in most situations.

I asked her to try and she then stated it was in an e-mail and today would be the last time she would let me do it. Of course it worked and I was able to buy OV cards with a CC.

Frankly, I think she was clueless but it did worry me that there could more changes on the way now that I have WM BP, BB and Money Order all in play when I was just doing VR previously. Hopefully, not but I am posting here to see if there are other reports about an e-mail or if this is just a clueless CVS manager.
