In all seriousness, even with screen shots I would be nervous relying on a p*rtal to track and pay, correctly.

Ok so someone tell me if I'm off on this idea:
I'm trying to hit the spending threshold on my Amex Business Gold card - can I sign up and pay $525 for 73,000 miles, then sell the miles (making a profit) and payback the credit card?

Why does this thread keep getting deleted and reopened?? Is this supposed to be a tease?
By the way does Dan get a referral for every match...? ;D

Hey guys been a real while since I posted, just wanted to mention that match.com is horrible with refunds but per their terms and conditions/bbb rules they agree to/applicable law(s), they have to refund of requested within 3 business days so anyone can still call if they bought on Friday.

They are sneaky and if you ask to cancel and for a refund they will say "ok, we will cancel auto renew' make sure they also commit to canceling the membership and refunding.

I think there's more of a discussion on this in the comments of the 'onemileatatime' post on the deal.

What did you miss out on?
Spending $600 on Match.com and then fighting for a refund because it's not being honored as advertised?
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Update: your right i see that now people reporting issues.. I guess you have a sense for these things before hand so didn't post on DDMS. Thanks

Luck with points or luck with a match??

if points, match may not be up, but eharmeny is for like upwards of 100 points per doller...I did match deal, they are pending for me now and they dont count the add-ons so even if you paid $600 you get only around 30k points, your chocie to fight for refund, points etc.
