Anyone have missing points with this card? Was approved and points showed up on first statement correctly but were never dropped into my existing BW account. Called CS and was told they were in limbo as BW account was not noted on account. CS assured they would be put in shortly. Still no points. Common practice or unusual practice?

Most people re-apply after 6 months, I think (I usually wait longer). Some re-apply as soon as 3 months.

There have been mixed experiences, I'm sure, but re-opening in a month will likely result in MBNA re-opening your old account. You would receive no bonus in that scenario.

How long before AS points expire btw? I have 25k, but that's not enough for a single flight. Perhaps I will apply again next year so I can at least reach 50k but I don't know..

Has anyone had the following experience with the MBNA Best Western MasterCard?
This is my MBNA activity:
Date Description Item Points Transferred
08/16/2016 Points Transfer Transfer 156
07/18/2016 Points Transfer Transfer -3,893
06/16/2016 Points Transfer Transfer -20,003
My Best Western account only shows the 156 points received. Why are the other amounts in negative figures and not received?
