anyway of paying fee and first charge prior to fee posting?  when i try to pay the 2 amounts combined on the site it tells me you cant pay more than whats been charged.  do i have to send in an actual "check" for the full amount to get it to go through?
Make a $89 charge to your grocery, and pay it off

If you're thinking about applying for the 50k offer, it would be really awesome if you used my referral code. PM me your email and I'll send it right along.  ;D

I tried and it didn't work. I think you gotta pay 89 more than what was charged to the card.

Nop. My bonus posted after having two $89 charges (Grocery & AF) and paying only one of them.

I was referring to paying it before the fee posted in order to force the points to post on the first statement

We are on the same page here, assuming the AF posted together with statement closure.

Need 60k points on this card for a ticket-- what's my best option of getting the last 10k points (x 2 cards?) Can I transfer UR points to US Airways, or do I just need to MS the points I need?

Alternatively, is there a way for a family member to transfer his US Airways miles into my account for free? I asked a rep and was told it wasn't possible, wasn't sure if there was any way of going around that.

Thanks

Thanks for these links-- some people really don't know how to read!

Next question: just called and was offered an additional 5,000 points upon spending 1,000 over 3 months, or double points per dollar up to 8,000 points for gas, groceries and utilities. Is Target considered a grocery store for the purpose of this calculation?

Yes, I said I wanted extra miles in my account, and I said I felt bad that I had missed out on the referral bonus miles opportunity etc, so the rep offered me those 2 options, and allowed me to have that added to my husband's account as well (chose the 5k bonus for 1k spend, don't know why I was hesitating!)

someone got it waived by saying it wasnt worth it since the companion pass benefit was going away
