A friend wants to use my AA airline points if I’m willing to part with them for a fair trade in $$. He wants 70k points and I initially quoted a conversion of 1.15 cents per point (based on research). Is this reasonable? Don’t want to rip him off but also don’t want to loose out as well. Any big loss on my end by giving away all the points I have on AA that I should think about?

So the National Consumer Helpline really works.
I had filed a complaint against Goibibo, who delayed my flight cancellation request until 1 day before departure hence the airline charged a higher cancellation amount.

A friend of mine introduced me to the portal when I filed a complaint explaining the matter in detail, uploading Twitter DM screenshots, where the company was clearly denying responsibilities on the above.

Took 2 months but today my refund was initiated by Goibibo.
