Credit balance on Amex platinum
« on: May 13, 2013, 06:41:10 PM »
I just got the credit from doing the PMMG now i have a credit balance,
Should I call up and ask for a check? Or will I be risking an FR?

I rarely use the card so I'd rather not spend the credit

Ended up cancelling some flights so now have a credit balance of near of close to 10k, can it sit on my amex card, or I'm better off calling for a refund? I'm thinking such a big refund may raise a red flag possibly, is it better to wait then for it to automatically refund?

You can also have them transfer the credit to a different amex card that you use for spending

                        Go to Account services > inquiry and dispute center > open a payment dispute and you can transfer it from there

Yes but having a near 10k credit balance wont raise any red flags?
Thanks!

If you're really concerned then why not MS it out and take 1-2% haircut.

Good chance they will look into it, not worth it to worry

If the charge and cancellation, and everything else on the account is legit, I wouldn't worry too much.
