She said now that I will earn AA miles - is that right? Even though this was originally a BA award flight?

No, you don't earn miles on an award ticket.

Getting ready for a 2BM+1BM (bait and switch) with Citi. I live in NJ where they pull EX.? I currently have my EX frozen, has anyone been able to get them to pull other CR on recon? Have they pulled anything besides EX in NJ recently? Is there a possibility of them automatically pulling TU or EQ when they see that EX is frozen?

IME and others, they don't budge. You will need to unfreeze your EX.

I'm still not sure if I am going to pull the trigger. I need to hear the response to your question first.

Yes, and even then, there have been reports it doesnt work with Chase biz apps.

I dunno where you heard that I did it more than once.

When they ask why its frozen and to please get a one time pin.
I tell them I unfroze all 3. I'm not sure why you are having a problem. maybe it takes time?
Why don't you try a different one and see if it comes up.

I'm glad to know it worked for you.

I'm simply reporting what has been reported here on at least 3 or so occasions IIRC.

Chase business cards requiring you give them a pin to unlock EX is a fairly new rule, but as far as I know unbreakable. Many HUCAs without success. Chase personal will let you pull another agency though, as will BOA. Citi and amex will not.

Nicely done. Did you get the points on the amex yet? Another hard pull?

Does this work like Delta? Meaning, does a GC purchase of $20 trigger the full $150 credit?

Did they approve it, or convert it? (the difference being whether you will receive the bonus or not)
