5. Why Amex Changing The Ameriprise Platinum Offer Is A Huge Blow To Me 

This one still cuts meet deep.  It was such a good offer for those of us who have been doing this for a while.  On the positive side it’s not like Amex would have given me the card anyway.

4. Hong Kong Airlines Wants a Favor from Those Who Grabbed Awesome Mistake Fares

3. How I Got Put on an Internet Blacklist for Checking Gift Card Balances

This is horrible,  I hate those captcha verification things to begin with. Buying and selling gift cards is a big part of my points earning so this is something I want to avoid for sure.
