It's the norm
There can be a list of reasons why it could happen.

Those can come pretty fast as well. If they don't automatically follow the bonus points I usually Chat to ask for availability. Just did this on four accounts last night and was successful 4/4 .

BUMP
Using a platinum? I find that BPs are more prone to this than other cards. Usually something like that would happen bc they track your spending algorithms and flag things that seem out of place. Not always as fraud
Think away the box.

Remember who pays for DDF. You foot the bill; you make the rules.
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

but when ddf becomes a place that only tells you how to follow the rules, then it will only be useful for n00bes and the experts will move on to somewhere else
