How I got one more activity today...

Me walking into dry cleaners in Boulder, CO, where I do not live:

Pater: I'm going to be your weirdest customer today.
Guy: Why is that?
Pater: I'd like you to charge me for something.
Guy: For what?
Pater: Whatever you'd like. The cheapest thing you can charge me for... maybe for one shirt. Or can you charge me for like a hanger or something.
Guy: We don't sell the hangers. We give you credit if you bring one in for .02.
Pater: So could you charge me .02 to buy one.
Guy: No. I couldn't put that in the computer.
Pater: Okay, then just whatever you can put in your computer.
Guy: Are you going to have your shirt drycleaned?
Pater: Not unless you can do it while I wait, and you don't mind me sitting over there without my shirt on while I'm waiting.
Guy: I do mind.
Pater: I don't blame you. I'd mind too. Then you can just charge me.
Guy: For what?
Pater: Like I said, whatever you want.
Guy: Okay, whatever you say. That'll be $1.87.
Pater: Here, put it on this card.
Guy: Sign here.
Pater: Thanks. Have a great day. Told you I'd be the strangest customer today.
Guy: Well, he wasn't a customer, but there was a man dressed as a hobbit standing outside for like an hour. I think he cast a spell on my store.
Pater: Um, thanks again.

anyway to find out registered or not ?

I already have a couple of activities posted on my Delta account, but there is a big problem for me, I do "NOT" remember did I register for this Delta 25K promotion or not.

If I already registered before and reigister again now, will my previously earned two activities be considered invalid activities ?

And is there anyway to find out if I am already registered for this promotion or not ? Thanks a lot.

There are two ways that I know of, first call delta and ask, you will need the refer to promo ID # 970639 or you can just try and register again, if you have registered before it will tell you and the activities will still count

I had a similar problem last year and sent Delta an email. It's better to have email proof than a phone call.

Please don't flame me if the answer to this is buried in the thread -- I did look for it

Anyone know if (and how) a purchase of miles through Airmilesmart.com will work for this promo?

Thanks.

You needn't look through this thread. Look through the T&C here.

You can search a web page for specific text with CTRL-F.

Budget 1000 Mile Promo

Has anyone received this yet? I signed up 1/24/08, received promotional materials from Budget, but nothing from Delta.

Mr. honu had a SkyMiles Shopping purchase on 2/15, which should have qualified for the Valentine 1000-mile bonus. Unfortunately, it was posted on 2/22 with a 2/18 date. He contacted Skymiles/DL CS via email, but so far has received no response. What's the best way to contact DL to correct this discrepancy?

HH, when you sign up for points.com, you can link any two accounts and I dont think they are too fussy about the name match. However, if you have already registered your Skymile account and your USAIR Dividend Miles account through your own points.com sign in, you cannot "delete" the link between your points.com account and your SKymiles account and "re-register" your wife's account.

I wonder if there is some sort of name match Delta are doing before crediting the SPG miles.
Three out of my four SPG transfers to famly members' Delta Skymiles account have now gone through. My own transfer went through within 24 hours. The next two took 3 to 4 business days to clear. The last one done on 22 Feb has still not posted.

Incidentally, all the accounts had same last name. That may have helped.

I have not. It seems like others are having the same results.

I am not very good at linking threads. Do a search by the word "Budget," and you will see more information on that topic.

My six weeks was up yesterday, so I sent an email to Delta. Stay tuned.

Question

in regards to this promo, Delta seems to be giving away miles everywhere! Does anyone know if they are about to increase the miles required for a free flight??
