if i used my visa card on the 29th but it didnt post until the 1st or second, what month is that transaction counted as?

here is the answer,
also it sounds like they are warning not to do the 12 $1 transactions, anyone had a problem getting their points?


Thank you for your e-mail. Visa check card transactions are counted for the month that the transaction posts to your account. So if a purchase made on July 29th doesn't post to your account until August 1st, then is would be counted as one of your "August" transactions. Please note, mileage awards are part of a marketing program designed to attract customers who choose BankDirect for their ordinary day to day operating account. The program requirements are easily reached by any customer with normal purchases and bill payment. We reserve the right to deny mileage requests for any obvious attempts to meet the technical requirements of the program without normal activity. If you have any additional questions, please contact client support at 1-877-839-2737.

Thank you for your business,
Client Support

Yep, tried that already a couple nights ago, no response from Dan. I sent him a PM as well.
I assume he's unable or too busy.
Or... maybe he wants people who are fighting to reach a million miles jump in.

In the meantime, I'm losing potential miles each day that goes by while my money is sitting around waiting.

Same here... still hoping for a referral. 
I can try a different group, I guess, like FT, but I'd much rather give the opportunity for bonus AA miles to mishpacha    :P

theres no reason why it shouldnt
unless they find that alot of people are pulling their money and they need a better incentive, but i dont think that will happen

You should still get miles but it won't count towards lifetime

Considering his DDF signature reads:
Quote from: Dan's DDF Signature
Email me for a Bank Direct AA mileage checking account referral bonus: dan at dansdeals.com

It's fair to assume he can still send you one.

Has anyone tried to fund this account using Chase's bill pay feature? (Where they send out the check for you)
I just don't have any checks left and i'm trying to think of a free way to fund the account

If checks are the only problem, ask the bank for a cashiers check. Should be free.

Now if you want some checks for dirt cheap, this deal seems to never go dead http://www.dansdeals.com/archives/13658
