New payment procedures for 2011 FSA's

[Deleted member 17588]

I just want to confirm with my fellow AA coworkers the new procedures for 2011 FSA's. The PayFlex MasterCard was very handy in paying for RX's, doctor visits, etc. Do I understand correctly that we will NOT be issued a new card for 2011 and must pay all costs upfront and then be reimbursed? If this is indeed the case, I'm in the dark about how the reimbursement process will work. Will this entail sending paperwork/receipts through the mail and waiting for weeks to get my money back via a check? Or will there be a different method? I appreciate any info on this.

Thanks!!

If I've understood what info has been put out, your scenario is correct.

Yep, back to the old way..Pay up front, submit expense, wait for reimbursment!

Probably had too many of the flex plan cards used in casinos, strip clubs and Hawaii resorts for non-eligible expenses.

That would indeed be the American Airlines way...

No accountability for offenders and instead punish everyone for the actions of a few.

Same story over and over, then when questioned about the ignorance...Blame the Unions.
