it shouldn't be this hard
Is there some way to look for an Economy but not Basic Economy fare a month a time? The United web site will show me Economy fares for a month at a time, but I cannot find a filter to exclude Basic Economy fares. When I choose a date, I can exclude Basic Economy fares, but as soon as I change the date, that filter is cleared. How could I search better? Thanks. (Same question for Google Flights; is there a switch to exclude Basic Economy fares?)

I have run into this twice now, so I would like to post it here to see whether any one has ideas why it is happening.
When booking an all-UA itin that costs more than my Travel Bank balance, online booking fails complaining about "issues processing your credit/debit card."
On the phone, UA agents can help finish it without issue. So there is no real issue with my credit card.

the difference after UA TB should be charged to the card. but u get an error? this is for any card on file?
. I was mulling a flight purchase, but TB would be better
