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).

Is there any purpose in keeping this card open?
 Or downgrading is a better option to a avoid the $89 AF?

 Has anyone tried this to use their points?

I was given the 70k spend bonus twice by mistake. What's the likelihood of a clawback?

Long story short: Two phone reps gave me different dates for when I had to spend the 5k for the bonus. After spending it before the second deadline but after the first(by mistake), I called and asked why the miles weren't posted to which they said the matter would be escalated. Now, a  week later, I open my account and have 150k miles.

Curious to know what happened in the end .. ?

Spoke to a supervisor? Apparently it can take some HUCA.

Had success with supervisor. Pretty strange that reps can’t but supervisors give 1k points downgrade bonus.🤔

Will this still be the same, Get 5% miles back to use toward your next redemption, every time you redeem.
 once I downgraded to the no annual fee card?

If that isn't a feature of the no AF card, than I'd guess not. I'm sure that's something a phone rep can answer prior to downgrading.

Does Uber work for redeeming Arrival+ points? If ya, will buying a $100 Uber GC directly from Uber qualify for points redemption?
