Sure it takes a minute after some thought, but I doubt many people would think to take the steps to do it.

I know I'm an .... But it's not as simple as saying, "read".

Care to PM me details of how to find apply for the US card?

Probably because that would be an unnecessary extra step that requires more time and would decrease the amount of MS available.

For example:

Scenario 1: CC -> VGC -> VB -> WM BP

Scenario 2: CC -> VGC -> WM BP + CC -> VB -> WM BP

There are other scenarios. But scenario #1 is a very inefficient use of VB.

Yea, but do we know for sure that the transaction remains as CA, because chase initially processes it as a CA transaction as well, and then later reverts it to sale.

I decided to bite the bullet and do a test load for $1 to see how the transaction posts. If I get charged the $10 CA fee, I'll let you guys know.

TIA

Reposting, as I haven't seen any responses - anyone able to assist with this?

NW buxx with BoA AS card
 
anyone uses BoA AS card to fund NW Buxx, and get the miles for the loading? Thanks

Is there any cost effective way of liquidating US buxx other than Walmart BB or USB atms, neither of which are available to me? Seems e-loading BB is a no go now with the Buxx.

MO's at your local grocer?

As others have mentioned. CSP is NOT a CA. Showing as a "Sale".


Online, Mail, or Telephone transaction
+ 1 Point per $1 earned on all purchases 517.50

Update:

SUCCESS! :D:-::D

Using the Citi AAdvantage Executive MC, the TD Go load was pending as a CA but posted as a purchase under "Professional Services - Not Elsewhere Classified."

Go forth and complete your 100k mile minimum spend, ladies and gentlemen. ^

If you had set your CA to 0, you would have known this already at time of load. It is easy to set the CA to 0 and leaves you with no headaches

Didn't people who set their CA to 0 have trouble making loads in the first place? I thought I had read that earlier in the thread.

Either way thanks for letting us know, this will be handy to meet the $10k spend without cannibalizing other more lucrative MS cards

i think you're right. it starts off as a cash advance than gets converted to a purchase, or something like that.

How come no one uses the NW buxx card? It seems that most people here prefer US or TD
