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).

Asking here because it's so similar... Does anyone know if a cancelled southwest anytime flight would work for blue sky from American express as well (7,500 blue sky points can be redeemed for $100 statement credit against a travel purchase)? Will try it out but curious if anyone can report. Thanks.

There are some data points of delta working and some that don't - best bet is buy a ticket and refund next day, but within 24 hours, and hope it posts. But why mess around? Southwest anytime ALWAYS posts and works for everyone.

Barclay's shut down my card before I had a chance to get my travel credit (do the travel spend). I already had the points tho. Any hope?

Barclays is 2.1etc now. If you value UR at 1.41+, then freedom would win.

I asked this on a new thread, but realized it should have gone here.  So here goes.

I have a second Barclays card with a $25k limit.  They won't waive the $89 fee, at least not when I asked via SM and I don't think they will downgrade.  Does it pay to keep it for the line?  I have the same issue with an SPG.

Thanks.

open a new card and use the old line as leverage

Why would a new issuer care about my line elsewhere?
