Update: Seems like the issue is now resolved.
Currently there seems to be an issue with the Bank of America Premium Rewards $100 travel credit posting, a similar issue is also occurring on American Express cards that offer airline reimbursements. This has happened on the American Express cards before and the worry is always that gift cards no longer work. From what I’ve been able to tell nobody has received a reimbursement on the Bank of America Premium Rewards card since June 6th-June 7th, that includes people making purchases that should qualify and even includes the application fee for Global Entry (this is a different benefit, but it’s interesting that a statement credit still hasn’t posted). It’s always possible that Bank of America/American Express are making changes to how these travel credits work, but I highly doubt that’s the case and I suspect that there is a backlog/some other issue at play and it will be resolved sooner rather than later. If you’re worried, you can always wait until the issue is resolved/we know more to make your purchases to ensure you’re only making purchases that will be correctly rebated.
Small Update: The dates above are for the Bank of America travel credit, American Express seems to be more recent/might not be an issue at all.
Hat tip to Pointsmiles
Given recent GC issues on Delta/Southwast, do we have any successful recent (post 6/23/19) reports of cheap flights on JetBlue posting credits?
6/19 Bought AA GCs with BOA PR on 6/19. Credit posted 6/23. So looks like this issue might already be resolved?
Thanks, let me update.
DP on BoA Premium Rewards: Delta upgrade charge posted 6/18, credit posted 6/22
DP. My BofA app finally showing the $100 AA gift card credit. I bought gift card on June 7.
Missing DL $50 gc credits posted today
Paid for SW early bird check in and taxes with BOA Premium Rewards June 3, 2018. No reimbursement yet.
Credit for both taxes and early bird check in posted today.
If it’s useful:
$100 SWGC purchased on 6/5 and 6/10 with reimbursement on 6/8 and 6/13 respectively.
With what card?
3 days so it sounds like Amex. I wish people would just post complete DPs instead of half of the info which is basically useless without a complete report.
they are n00b. thats why. they assume there is only one CC per bank so we know what they are talking about.
I don’t know if it’s related, but my travel credits on the Altitude have also stopped posting. They were posting automatically up until ~2 weeks ago, then stopped.
The application fee for my global entry application posted on 06/07 as well and haven’t received a statement credit either. My most recent statement closed 06/17.
Did not get reimbursed for legitimate incidentals charge that posted a week ago.
I called BOA on Saturday about my AA seat upgrades purchased 2 weeks ago with my Premium Rewards card not posting. A case was opened but have still not heard from them. The person didn’t seem to know why it hadn’t posted. Also upgrades & Global entry purchased on my wife’s card & no credit given yet.
