Earlier in 2015, Capital One discontinued the Aspire World Travel card and transferred existing cardholders to the Aspire Travel World Elite card, with the promise that the 10,000 points anniversary bonus would be grandfathered in for existing cardholders.
Has anybody here received their anniversary bonus? I just received my anniversary statement, but no 10k bonus. (Secure message sent, will update)

What happens when you transfer out e.g. MR points to a 0 balance and then Amex tries to reclaim MR? Do they put it as outstanding balance by conversion? Deduce it from future MR earnings? Try and deduct it from whatever you've spent/transferred it?

They have no problem putting the MR balance in negative. Not sure what would happen if you attempt to close an account with a negative MR balance, though.

got the MBNA Best western Credit card number since October, I don't have Best western rewards account that time, CSR said I need create a rewards account number and give to them (which is weird since I know Chase Marriott and AE SPG will give you new rewards account number when you don't put reward account number on application)..............Anyway on Nov 13th I called MBNA and give CSR my Best western rewards number : , but till today my Best Western rewards account still haven't got 40K points bonus, I called MBNA and escalate to manager, they said MBNA can't see when the points is transfer to Best Western rewards account and which account number it goes to, they suggest me to call Best western to find out........ I called Best western and they told me they search under my name only show 1 account and it's 0 points........I got run around by MBNA and Best Western and goes to nowhere

I had the same problem in March with Capital One and Delta because of some sort of bugs with my last name which contains a dash... Neither CO or Delta would recognize the problem. So I escalate the problem on the Delta part and the supervisor made a conference call with me and someone from Capital One by calling the customer service...
So they end up fixing the problem and Capital One call me a few days later to apologize : they doubled the sign-up bonus as a gesture (indeed I lost my time with 3-4 calls + one hour in the conference call).

FYI I got the RBC Avion card December of 2014, a few months later I switched over to the RBC BA and rec'd the 30k BA Avios. November of 2015 I product switched back to the Avion card and did not receive another 15k welcome Avion points. I waited until 2 statements had closed to be sure, then I called, was put on a long hold and then was explained that product switching back to a card you've previously had will result in no welcome bonus.
