ALASKA is shutting down your accounts and taking away points!

[D93]

WARNING!  WARNING!

This talk about AS auditing accounts is real stuff and not some common BS story on FT. I have opened quite a few (or maybe I should say A LOT of) AS cards recently and downgraded/closed them, never sold a single mile, only used them myself once to fly EK F.
My AS account is currently under audit and there's no one to talk to. I called AS they told me the audit is from BofA and to call BofA. I called BofA and they told me to call AS. Made a conference call between AS and BofA and got no where, they just kept saying "you need to wait until we finish this audit and we don't know when that will be".

Just a side note, they told me my account was under audit since June 2nd, interesting that they never emailed me or contacted me regarding this and I only found out when I tried logging in yesterday (6/16) and I got the infamous "your account has discrepancies" message.

Anyone that has a nice size AS account, and/or has opened - closed/downgraded cards recently - get ready to battle because this isn't looking pretty.

Yes, others have PMd me.

 I tried logging in yesterday (6/16) and I got the infamous "your account has discrepancies" message.

is this just displayed instead of your account info?

[Aj3042]

Yep I was thinking the same.

[D93]

is this just displayed instead of your account info?

Yes, that is their way of informing you of an audit.

[jameswacht]

Would closing/downgrading the cards heighten the risks?

[DMYD]

Would closing/downgrading the cards heighten the risks?

I did that and I am good, but I guess you cant know what they really look at.

[APoshiterYid]

So I just read 8 pages to find 2 reports of any issues. Wow.

Mainly 3+

[Baruch]

Mainly 3+

How about 2bm churners?

[Yehoshua]

FWIW the first and only time I applied for 3 cards (2 personal, 1 business) for both me and DW was last December. I have no notices of audits on either account.

[avrumy22]

And he credits RTC in the post.  Yes, MMS and RTC were both at the Monsey seminar and after seminar DO and promised not to divulge anything.
No honor.

For those looking for proof....

He's probably the most dangerous (and selfish) blogger around because he explains everything in baby steps so everyone can do it (even those who shouldn't and those who can't keep their mouths shut).

Can i also see from rtc please.

[Chapshnell]

I can only imagine the audit dept listening in to these recorded calls.. the excuses why we needed so many cards.. I'll bet you BOFA is looking for new workers in the credit review/recon dept.
