That is what I remember when looking at AMX cards -- why i questioned- in the e/m amx sent - depending where u clicked it had two different offers -  one with language and a better offer without language

So from when was it that you could cancel your platinum and get the 450 back, 60 from opening the card or from when they charge you, which is more like 90 days.
Saw it posted here once but can't find it.

Based on the new AF?
but why a new af and a partial refund used to be they just refunded minus green af
Was always like that. You get a PRORATED refund on the old AF, and then get charged the new fee prorated from current date up until the original anniversary date.

Plat Biz card

 if book airfare with MR points you  gets 30% back in pts -- is the 30% on just the air portion? or on the total air tkt price ( tax-yq etc)

Last year's airline fee credit posted on 1/1/16 - does that mean I have gotten my credit for the year? Purchase on MXP went through in December 2015
