You probably can't have nice things because you're not very nice.......

It is if you call and get a rep to them to apply a credit for you

That isn't very nice, disagreeing with members here doesn't make you a not nice person.
Or he's just right...

True.  But saying things like, "I hope Amex claws back every dollar." does

Unlikely
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.
