Mortgage to Miles Conversion Table
I enjoyed the article on miles for mortgages in the current issue of IF. I was encouraged to hear that getting miles did not necessarily mean paying a higher rate.
I have a few follow-up questions that I did were not covered in the article:
1 - Is there one page summary anywhere that breaksdown what mortgage companies are affiliated with what FF programs, and a brief description of how the relationship works?
2 - Do any of the mortgage companies that participate in this program offer "no cost" refinance options? If so, are they eligible for miles?
Thanks.

I think that there needs to be a separate forum for these programs:

Is the article available online? Previously the articles were maintained online, but the site has been redesigned and I could not find the link to the magazine articles.

I am in the process of a re-fi and was told by a broker that NW and CO don't charge the broker, but DL requires 1/2 point. I'm not sure what he meant by "don't charge", but I took it to mean that if I use NW or CO programs, he would not charge me, but if I asked for DL miles, he'd burry a 1/2 point extra in somewhere.
