I hope you are too! My concern is, how is Apple going to know who to contact? I spoke with Apple in the USA last Monday and thay said the problem was on Chase's end. ???
On a side note, I tried paying for the products with points and using my CC to pay for the taxes. Still got the "no can do" B28374 error code. Today the taxes showed up as a charge on my CC transactions on the website, but then it was credited back to me. Again, ???
All I know is I've been paying for 2 CSR CCs (one for me and one for my wife) for years now and this is the first time I've tried to redeem points. We've accumulated over 600K and, If I don't get to use the points for what I want, then I'm seriously considering cancelling the card and leaving Chase altogether. There are other rewards cards that will give me airport lounge access!
