points can be used for the AF.

Statement credits: If you have the exact number of points or more required to wipe away a charge, you can wipe away the entire charge.  If you have fewer than the exact number of points, you can only redeem in 2500 point/$25 increments.

Example: If you have an $87 charge, and 9000 points, you can wipe away the entire $87 charge.  If, however, you only have 8000 points, you can only wipe away $75 worth of the $87 charge (2500 point/$25 increments x 3).

hope you're right
I can't imagine they would limit people to only redeeming charges over $100.

Seems like this is confirmed.

Quote
  • Decrease in rebate – the 10% rebate on travel redemptions is now a 5% rebate on all redemptions
  • Increase in minimum redemption – travel redemptions will now require a minimum 10,000-point ($100) redemption
  • Changes to what merchants are eligible for travel redemptions
  • No more free TripIt Pro subscription

Seems like this is in effect for people who applied 7/1/2015 and forward. Changes for existing members seem to be in September.

Even if you're  buying a house, you can still buy Amazon gold box deals and stuff like that :)

Unless you have the Arrival card, i believe you will lose the points.

I am sometimes accused of overthinking things. I am still mulling over whether that accusation has merit.

I applied for my Arrival on Sept 30th 2014, does that mean I'm screwed and won't get to keep the old version until August 2016?

Man that card was short-lived. What a fantastic example of poor planning.

Does this card give rental car insurance? (Want to use points for the charge)

Thanks!

Look upthread. Basically,  put the rental on a chase card like umpe and then after you return,  switch to arrival. I have done it plenty of times

Points Guy: Barclaycard Confirms Arrival and Arrival Plus Changes
Received their new information packet yesterday. Still a good solid card. The 10k minimum mileage redemption is annoying as I used to redeem them legit.
