legality of charging for negative MR balance

Amex clawed back my 100k AFTER I was able to transfer them out leaving me w/ a negative MR balance. Anyone know of actual examples where they charged for negative MRs following account closure? I am wondering if they have any legal right to do so, considering that they can simply forfeit any accumulate MR points if you cancel. I cannot find anything about it in the terms/conditions. Thanks

Might be better answered in the Amex forum...

You might want to look at the terms of the program as well and see what they say though on quick inspection I did not see anything relevant.

I very much doubt it, but stranger things have happened. Keep us updated.
