anyone have loyalty points expire at an online casino

so i just got an email saying i lost like 27k loyalty points because they expired. didn’t realize they had an expiration on those, especially since i thought i was being careful about activity. usually i focus on roulette bonuses, so i’ll cash points for free bets every now and then, but apparently there’s some fine print on inactivity or calendar year resets that i missed. i keep most emails but maybe i ignored a notice, not sure.

does anyone else actually track when these points are set to expire, or is it one of those things where you just expect to get burned if you don’t use them fast enough? with the way promos come and go, it seems like some casinos are almost counting on people forgetting. is there a best practice for squeezing some actual value out of these points before they vanish or do you just need to set an alarm for yourself?
