If adding an AU to a Platinum account for transfers, cancelling within x (60?) days should result in full refund, correct?
I remember when a coke was a nickel, and you could buy VRs in OD.

I added green AU to biz plat online last week. Should have a drop-down menu to choose which type of card you want to add.

This was a personal platinum, and didn't have the option.

I ended up calling, and the rep wasn't able to go down to a green, (DROPR?) but in this case was able to do a platinum without paying extra.

Is there any point in my dad adding me as an au to his 15 year old discover card? It will show as brand new on my credit, not 15 years old. Or will it?
