Long story short had a refund come into my amex gold – had already transferred the membership reward points (around 15k) to BA. I refunded a hotel and have a negative points balance on amex of around 15k. I plan on cancelling my amex gold in a few weeks as first year is nearly up. Would this be a bad idea? What happens if you cancel a card with a negative MR balance?
nth will happen but don’t expect they will welcome you back
