Has anyone else been having this issue?
Have you had any success convincing Chase that these are actually bonus categories?
The Chase ink preferred officially states "Earn 3 points per $1 on the first $150,000 spent in combined purchases on travel, shipping purchases, Internet, cable and phone services, and on advertising purchases made with social media sites and search engines each account anniversary year."
I have charges with "AMI MAGAZINE" which I cannot seem to get 3 points per dollar as they didn't code themselves properly with Visa. I told them I have the physical advertisement that was placed and I didn't buy $1,000 worth of magazines but to no avail. Maybe if I fax a copy of the ad they will have it looked into.
Similarly, I have charges with AirBnB and VRBO that register as travel, but when booking thru other vendors for the same vacation rental, it does not register as travel.
Thoughts or input.
Thanks
