I know on Amex PayPal f+f is frowned upon… But has anyone any idea with other cards such as barclays ba or virgin? Do they also keep a strict eye on this?

If you are having to ask the question, then you have a potential problem. As above, it’s all fine until it isn’t if you chose to game the system.

OP- I’d love to know how much/often you were putting through PayPal F&F.

I’m nervous to use it even for legit reasons!

probably around £10k to £12k per month.

I’m going to leave it now, wait for the full 2 years because SUBs will re-appear. If AMEX dont want it after 2 years then I suspect its game over.

How long did they tolerate that for?

Ah £10k – £12k pcm Amex/PayPal F&F, its like the good old days of IHG Mastercard>Curve>NS&I>Bank>IHG Mastercard rinse and repeat. When the fun stops, stop!

I would worry about HMRC as well if you cycle credit like that… but seems like 10k isnt a big enough fish for them to fry!?
