Put a payment of $52k through my VA High Flyer card a couple of days ago and received a phone call from Citibank.
First question was did I authorise it, then I was grilled whether or not it was a "business" purchase. I was asked whether or not I still worked at ABC company and what was the nature of the business etc.
After I hung I though there goes the points for this transaction and hopefully they don't look back at previous transactions as there is roughly $60 to $80K per month to the same company, although normally it is for amount of around $30k each payment.
Received my statement today and the points have been allocated 59,500 in total.
Might give this card a rest for a month or two.
