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).

No official time limit. If you're approved, you'll get the bonus.

I had an experience with their fraud department a couple of days ago and was able to do it all online. Took 2 minutes

I got disconnected after ten minutes and Called the number on my card and got transferred to fraud immediately. I transferred to cs to get compensation for the long wait and disconnect and was told they are having delays and it's normal. I pointed out that I only had issues with the number in the email but not the one on my card and she claimed in just got lucky. Load of garbage but I squeezed 500 miles from her.

IINM, The reason sw works best is that even if you cancel immediately the charge still posts. Some other airlines just cancel the transaction so you have to wait to post before canceling.

So I guess the difference is being able to cancel right away with SW whereas JB you have to come back to cancel.

No opposition. I just have previous experience with JB (from Ritz-Carlton). So I wouldn't mind doing something that's familiar to me not to end up in this thread  http://forums.dansdeals.com/index.php?topic=33898.0

Do you have to call them to receive the statement credit or it's automatically triggered pggm style?

Yes. Yes.

Is this true even if you downgraded Arrival Plus to Arrival (and still have the Arrival card)?  I know they're different products, but because the points transfer, I was wondering if it's an issue.

Don't you have to go online and redeem the points against the charge?
Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

Thats part of the process. It will then be a statement credit. No need to call them.
