Totally agree – this is more likely to result in a full account audit and closure rather than you getting any refund.

I’ve benefited to the tune of 350k+ points over the last couple of years doing the revolutionary shuffle and when I got hit with a £125 cash advance fee in July, on my regular £2.5k cycle, I just took it on the chin and moved on. Had a few good trips on VS metal out of those plus the 2-4-1 vouchers and more to come.

The last thing you should be doing is drawing attention to unusual patterns of transactions if you want to hold onto your VS card – you would be wise to look for other opportunities instead!

Fully agree with this poster. I have had multiple NYC UC trips, numerous 2-4-1 vouchers, and a load of points to half the price of my holiday. I got stung last month for £285, however, although annoying, I do not want to push my luck. I have done very very well out of this to date, and will accept my penance and move on.

Interesting to see the outcome of your complaint.
