I think you should do a story about the broken Cap1 rewards transfer to airlines.

I’ve been prevented from transferring for a month now, as have others.
In addition, people are being subjected to lenghty fraud checks (Yes, really, fraud check to convert miles!) , to the extent the award flights are gone by the time the miles make it to the target airline.

This is really shameful and they are being tight lipped about how long it will be to fix this bug.

A 8 figure balance in flexible points isn’t enough for Gary he wants to be a billionaire.

Hardly surprising for those who read points/miles blogs such as this. I view it as the price I pay for getting information I might not otherwise gather on my own, which is also why I don’t use ad blockers when viewing sites such as this or non-subscription news sites.

My main problem with this post is the recommendation to use the C1 travel portal for booking flights. Good luck during times of irregular operations! I much prefer to book air travel directly with the airlines.

With a generous initial bonus, strong earning potential, and valuable benefits, it’s definitely worth considering.

The earliest cooments date from November 2021 – more than a year ago. If these old cards must be flogged again and again, at least update the wording.

The link they sent me to upload all this stuff didn’t work. I decided not to cancel my Chase Reserve card as planned and instead just cancelled the new Venture X. At least my daughter got a sign up bonus out of it.

@Ned – I booked a flight on Capital One’s website two days ago. That said, you may have to deal with Capital One Travel or pay a fee to have an airline take over your reservation to make changes.
