AOPA rebate gone?

I got the letter today from AOPA too. It says that beginning in Jan of
2007 you'll earn one reward point for each net retail dollar charged to
the card. You'll earn double points for every net retail dollar spent
and over 4000 qualified FBOs and other select aviation merchants. The
points can be redeemed for cash, merchandise, gift certificates, travel
and more. The letter didn't give any indication of what a point would be
worth. I'm also not sure what net retail dollar means but it smacks of
some legal mumbo jumbo to disqualify some or all of a purchase from
receiving points.

I got the letter today in the mail. Mine wasn't sent by MBNA, it was sent
by AOPA and didn't mention the 2 point thing, just a list of "Rewards
points" and went on and on about how it would be unlimited and applied to
all purchases but double for FBO's or something. I bet it will end up being
another 1% card.

A friend of mine just sent me an email that he got a notice from MBNA
that the AOPA 5% rebate would be discountinued after this year and
instead he would get "2 points" for every dollar spent. I haven't
checked my mail yet today but I didn't see anything about this on
AOPA's web site.

More likely it's to disqualify returns from earning any points.
