Expiring miles ?

Hi Manilo

Yes, any mileage activity on her FC account will make it another 3 years before they expire. So, a Virign Wines purchase will do it, as will a MR transfer from Amex, or a short flight with BMI

Are you USING her miles for mco or do you just want to retain them?

Yeah, I missed out an "etc, etc,....", sorry

Cheers

i just want her to retain them, so it looks like a case of wine is in order
many thanks for all your advice
manilo

am i right in thinking that a virgin credit card earning miles is the best way to extend the life of miles as it adds miles every month ?

Yes Steve, any activity on the account extends the life of points, so having a number fed in every month is great.
