I have a comment regarding living in the US. I just tried to sign up for MyPoints to get the 750 MileagePlus Miles but was denied. MyPoints CS told me it was because I'm verifying through an IP address not in the US or Canada and the program is only available to US and Canadian residents. I tried to explain that I am a US resident on a RTW trip and won't be back in the US for a long time. They were adamant that there is no way around the foreign IP address as residence verification.

Anyone have any luck with a similar situation?

Thanks.
