My Barnes & Noble miles from skymilesshopping also took many many weeks to post, in the 4+ range. That said, I scooped up exactly six partners, and all have already posted, with correct dates in the window.

1. Amex
2. Ameriprise quote. (And the quote was $200 higher than State Farm. )
3. B&N skymilesshopping.
4. Penang (Atlanta Malaysian place) skymilesdining
5. Starwood.
6. Inter-Continental.

Didn't have to buy miles. Didn't have a prayer of making it to 12 partners, so didn't even bother thinking about it.

I thought I might need to use one of my backups to take the place of Netflix, but there is hope...

ME: blah blah blah I signed up for a Netflix account on March 1st. The problem is that the miles didnt post until March 17th. Can you please make a notation on my account summary page that lists the transaction as prior to March 15th? It would be helpful in qualifying for the 25,000 promo. I would sincerely appreciate your help with this.

Skymiles: As you have participated before the expiration date of the promotion, you will get the eligible miles if you have signed up for the promotion. The bonus miles will posted accordingly 10-12 weeks after the promotion ends.

Almost 12,000 miles for $35

Thanks to the Budget offer, this promotion was very rewarding.

1. Rewards Network Dining
2. SkyMiles Shopping (iTunes)
3. Shop4Miles (iTunes)
4. E-Miles
5. Points.com (Hotspex transfer)
6. Budget

Total Miles earned, including base and all bonus miles: 11,891
Total $$ spent: $35.44, of which $23.39 was just for the Budget rental. (OK, maybe a couple of bucks more to top off the gas tank.)

Mrs. bob12403 had the same results.

I hope you have good luck with this. When I signed up for Netflix last year, I enrolled on April 10, the credit card was charged on the 24th (after the 2 week free trial) and the miles posted with the date of May 8. The transaction date was also the 8th. For me that was still before the end of the last partner promotion, so it didn't matter. I hope they come through for you.

You must be joking!

Please allow 10 to 12 weeks after the promotion ends for all bonus miles to post.

Last year's similar DL promo said "10--12 weeks" after the ending date of May 31/ 2007. Most of us got the bonus on Aug. 24--12 weeks + 1 day later.

If DL is so pokey this year, we'll get 'em June 8 !

My Feb. 11th Barnes and Noble purchase posted on March 22nd. Jeez. Nothing like making me wait (and sweat). It posted with the Feb. 11th date, so all is great.

Netflix and Thanks Again were both completed before the cut off but posted on March 16th and March 17th. Did anyone have any success getting something like that to count last year?

The miles from my 2/9 Kodak Gallery purchase, made through Skymileshopping, still haven't posted. I've sent several emails to SkyMilesShopping customer service with my order confirmation. They never reply or post my miles. I think this purchase should also have given me the 1K Valentine's bonus.

My backup purchase at Magellan's from 2/19 is still missing as well.

Does SkyMilesShopping customer service ever reply?

They do, and they came through for me.

Remember that your miles still have many weeks to arrive as long as they show up dated correctly.

I heard back from SkyMiles Shopping within 24 hours regarding my missing miles. They told me they could see my purchase (Barnes & Noble) in the system and to give it 2-4 weeks to post. It finally did post (closer to the 4 week mark from time of their reply / almost 6 weeks from time of purchase).

Are you filling out the inquiry form on the SkyMiles Shopping website?
