Hi there! Long time lurker, first time poster!

Sorry if this has already been answered. I have searched to no avail.

I currently own 12k annual points (purchased secondary)...Originally this was a Trust E/ Type Y...During the transfer process it was changed to a Type A and my Earn Date was changed to 08/01. According to a friend of mine (who know a ton more about this stuff than I) this process also bumped me from a Type Y to a Type A.

I would like to add some more points. I have found another packages of 11k that states it's a Trust E/ Type A Earn Date of Nov 1. I did the math on the advertised MF and it works out $.045 / point + $320.

Now my question. If I purchase this package, will I have to pay multiple bases since I am on two different Earn Dates? I can buy the package if I only have to pay the one base, but I don't want it if I have to pay 2 bases.

Thanks for your help. I really appreciate these forums and everyone that shares their expertise...they are extremely informative and I've learned a lot from just reading.

No, you will not have to pay two base fees. Be aware when combining A accounts I have been told funny things can happen - you may find everything will switch to your new A date. Best source of information I have found is Jim (bocabum1999@yahoo.com). He is well versed in the issue and extremely helpful.

So will the new deed be bumped to a Type A in the process as well? Or does that even matter, so long as both my deeds are in Trust E?

Thanks
