Default SUB vs OTP

I got subbed in November and did another PMU trip for the OTP commitment during the same footprint. I was paid the original SUB trip credit value (kept the travel bank as well) and was paid the 125% for the PMU trip for the NOV bid period so my DEC 15th check was very nice. I called crew pay before the end of NOV to see if they could just elect not to pay me for the trip I was SUB'd for but they said they couldn't do that and would be taking the money back during the Feb 15th check so I put the extra money in the bank minus the taxes to use in FEB. It will actually be a good deal in the end because my FICA taxes were already maxed out for this year so it's a 6% bonus in a way, but you just have to be aware of when the money will come out and save it.
