Just wanted to share my experience. I was super pissed about the changes to the 1 night free term, having 4 cards between me and my SO and having just payed over $300 in AF 3 months ago pretty much entirely for this perk.
I called and received almost no help from the reps, so I filed a complaint with the CFPB and got a call back a couple days later. She offered me 7500 points but would not refund the AFs. About a week later I got a letter stating if I call her and close the accounts, they would refund AFs. So I did just that today. Existing reservations that used the free night bonus still stand, even after closing.
Just wanted to share as an FYI incase anyone else is as disappointed in this change as I am.
