Why do you think they are misinformed. That seemed like it came from higher up and a CSR didn't make it up. They definitely are capable of clawing back the miles

Capable? Sure.

Likelihood given the past occurrences? Near nil, except for a UA clawback I've heard of through the grapevine.

Most times a rep says that it's either a scare tactic, and/or they're simply uninformed or misinformed.

I'm going to keep 1 card open to be safe and if they try and claw back on the other card I closed, I will use the SM as backup because they didn't say anything about clawback in it to me ;)

did your points already transfer out?
why only 2x,xxx should be 5x,xxx

Posted on Monday but not transfer out, where can i transfer to other than making award booking?  I'm not sure why they mention 25K+ instead of 50k+ It looks like they only threaten to claw back the later bonus miles not the first purchase. I haven't close it yet because of this.  :-\

That was my plan until I got informed about the claw back and now undecided.

I just wanted to confirm that the second 25K hits 6-8 days after meeting spend threshold or it only posts after statement closes (i.e. United Miles)?

Neither.

Posts about 5-10 days after statement close.

A lot of people upthread mentioned that they canceled or downgraded already. So either they are done with reading this thread or they had no clawbacks yet.

Would it only happen after the 2nd statement closes?

The SM didn't mention anything about clawbacks. It sounded like the miles wouldn't be accessible, which is obviously false. I'm still a little nervous.

You will usually still get a second statement if you closed the card after the first one ended already.

Delta has been clawbacked also.
Only on DDF does 24/6 mean 24/5/half/half

@CV, what do you think. Is there a real concern for clawback, or is it the usual CSR scare tactics?

I really have no idea. I was shocked to see BOA close accounts for 2/3bm. Not the bank I know that has been used and abused for many years.

But as we've seen with US Airways, payback can take time to come.
