From reading this thread and from personal correspondence with e-Miles, more than one person was told that e-Miles would send Delta a list of all active members -- even those who did not have enough e-Miles to convert to Delta during the promo period.

I fall into that group, but I frankly don't know whether e-Miles, a late-posting Netflix, or mcr put me over the top.

I don't see how that would have solved the problem. I and others had miles post on January 1st, just before the promo. In any case, I forwarded the email to DL to see what happens.

I know it's common to get a response that makes no sense, but this is ridiculous:

Thank you for your e-mail to Delta Air Lines.

The miles requested have already been posted to your SkyMiles account.
We are unable to delete mileage already posted.


So I will try again, probably by paper mail.

From quickly perusing your list, I count 10 legitimate partners -- so you may very well have come up short of the 12 for the next threshhold. However, people are claiming that some activity that was not listed in the T&C's is counting -- so you may be able to convince them to give you another 6k if you find a generous CSR.

Are you sure about Budget fastbreak? One of my family member's accounts had fastbreak as the 6th activity and only received 3K. Everyone else had an "extra" activity.

Very nice. Got my 12k even though my #12 partner (Java City) never got the incorrect purchase date changed.

I had EXACTLY 25 partners. But I only hoped to get 20K because I signed up for e-miles but did not have enough activity to do a transaction. I considered myself to qualify for 20 with 4 partners as "back-ups" and an outside chance of 25. Because my bonus yesterday was 25K I have to conclude that there was a list sent to Delta noting my sign-up sans redemption.

23 May 2008 3 SM PARTNERS 3000


Does that look like 3,000 from the "up to 25,000 bonus?" I wish their codes were easier to decipher!

I believe so. I received the bonus without even actively pursuing it (other than registering for it, I suppose). I converted e-rewards into miles, shopped at iTunes and developed some pictures at Shutterfly.

So, I did 12, but got 6K (I did 13, but discovered the OMNI Hotel rate I used was mileage ineligible ). The 12 I did included the Budget sign-up. Can someone confirm that a Budget sign-up works (seems like one poster says yes, other says no).

In the end, I won't be too upset with 6K, but after all my fiascos with Accor/Sol Melia, I would love 12K.

Thanks Delta / Evan!

My 6K posted. Looking at my SM YTD activity, I had roughly 7,400 SM out of 47,500 from DL flights. The rest from promos and partner activity. This makes it clear that I am no longer a BIS kinda guy.

I did 16, and only got 12k points; I did the extra one to give me safety margin, but it seems like that wasn't enough.

Not sure if I can be bothered to chase it it
