I just cancelled mine today. They prorated and gave me back ~$82

Just ask...

Note that you will need to spend your entire points balance if you have any beyond the 100 points you've recently earned. I don't remember if you have to before you cancel or if you have a grace period, but it's short if you do.

Other way is to get another amex card and link the rewards membership accounts! Once you cancel the prorated amount automatically comes back to your personal card. Even the points dont expire or get forfieted

Hi guys,
Need help,I am joining
VMware Banglore on 27th June. During interview I told them I need wfh. They said it wil be wfh this entire year. Only mistake I did was i didn't permanent wfh. I took for granted like once I join i can opt for it ( as my VMware friends had said we can opt for it)
Now the offices have started, I am scared if they call me to office , I have 14months son, not willing to leave him n go for office.

So if I ask manager to give me permanent wfh will they agree ?
