been saving for months, finally got to 3700 and decide to cash in and get the A1 and pay the difference with cash. but it says they have to review my points and could take 7 days. Anyone else have this happen? ty. Doug
Quite common. It’s just another step to make sure you’re legit. Chances are you won’t be waiting the full 7 days though. 2-3 tops
The same thing happened to me, but I didn’t have to wait long.
why wait ? you know you can get those cards all one after the other and just leave them in your account ?
From now on, get the card the moment you got the points. Don’t wait, the rewards program will change again, soon. The points will be reduced in value.
They Expire after a year. Was saving as many as I could.
What is the source of this info?
source: trust me bro
I gathered around that same amount of points, but I always exchanged them for the cards as soon as I could, I did get a few wait messages, they were never full weeks, but as some others say, 2-3 days. I do believe you are limited to exchanging a limited amount of cards per week as well. I figured if I didn’t gather enough points in a year to get what I wanted, then I would get what I could.
The amount of points per card has stayed the same since the beginning, but that is not written in stone, so it is a possibility it could change at some point.
Correct. It is max. 13 cards per week (starting Sunday).
I thought it would be less. So that limit doesn’t cap OP trying to redeem 3700 points all at once.
In any case, trying to redeem a P1P or greater from points would be an exercise in patience.
was saving for a x1 which could take 6 months,? 8 months? a year? cards expire after a year…
My crystal ball. I predicted correctly the points reduction decision. The next is point inflation when redeeming them.
Good to know the source :).
My crystal ball says no inflation in the foreseeable future. When the A1 mini was released, mine predicted the arrival of a full-sized A1.
