Reply To: Finding companion voucher rather annoying

[AJA]

@NL I didn’t say you were responsible for the trolling so not sure why you resent me pointing it out?. I was responding to your direct reply to me disagreeing with me that there is any criticism of the OP. I gave a list of examples of that criticism.

I do agree that you need some flexibility and that OP will have to modify their approach in order to get use of the vouchers. But that is a criticism of the voucher. I also agree with OP that it is extremely frustrating and annoying when you do search and find no availability. The voucher is supposed to be a reward for spending £10k and soon to be £15k per annum on the card. It is somewhat counterproductive if people find it difficult to use. In fact the extra availability that opens up now is an attempt to make the voucher easier to use. BA/Amex didn’t do that to be magnanimous. That must have been as a result of feedback that too many people were finding it difficult to use.
