25K Partner Bonus 2008 - Jan 15-Mar 15
I searched, I promise, for a thread on this already. I found one here but the dates discussed in it are for 2007.
I went to this like, https://www.delta.com/marketing/partnerbonus/index.jsp ,same link as last year's promotion. But this time the dates are in 2008. Jan 15 to March 15, 2008. I am doubtful that I can make any more than maybe 6 partner activities in just 60 days but I am going to try.
The T&C state the following "To participate in this offer, SkyMiles member must register online between April 1, 2007 and May 31, 2007." Seems strange that a promotion for Jan 15 through March 15, 2008 would have a registration period of April 1 to Mar 31, 2007. Even if the copy meant Jan 15 to Mar 15, 2007 I can't see where one could register for that in April and May of the same year.
I went to register and it says I have already registered. But I don't remember registering for a 2008 partner promo. I did register for the 2007 though.
If you try and you are successful in registering, please let us know. But include whether you enrolled for the 2007 promo as well.

seems like they uploaded some new data to the site, but didn't update all the linked/database info, creating a half-smashed mess. Lets see if it gets fixed in the next day or so.
I am DL returnee/US refugee so I did not take advantage of this promo last year, so I tried to register and it let me, and took me to a page confirming the registration, the 2008 dates, and a link to the partners.

Would you mind perusing the T&Cs to see if they pertain to 2007 dates or 2008 dates. Since DL let you register and the rest of us report being told we already registered, I am curious if the T&Cs are good for 2008.

Thanks in advance
The T&Cs still said 2007, but everything else said 2008, so I am optimistically guessing that they probably are just not ready to launch officially yet, maybe? But I will go back and check the site off and on before the 15th to see if that part changes or if I need to re-register.

Congratulations: you're now a part of a very rewarding parntership.
you've successfully registere. Now you're ready to earn 3,000 bonus miles for doing business with just 3 unique Delta Skymiles aparnters and up to 25,000 bonus miles with 25 unique parnters. But you m8ust take advantage fo this between jan 15 and mar 15 2008. it's as simple as it is rewarding since the more parnters you use the more miles you can earn.
Typical delta DEBACLE.They just can never get it right.
Careful reading of the first post will reveal that the OP was NOT sent an invitation to this promotion. He just used the link from last year's and found the offer.
It is quite likely that the site is still being worked on, and will be fixed before the offer is sent out to Skymiles members. Nobody in this thread so far admits to having received the offer from Delta, they all just used the same link from last year that was posted by the OP.
Delta ain't perfect, but I can't see any basis for complaint here at least until after the offer is sent out publicly.

Delta does have trouble with updating dates, though! I went online to read some SkyMiles program info and the Benefits at a Glance page with the three medallion columns reads 2006 Program Benefits!

Made my point,Why put anything out before its fixed?Do it right at the start.

Most likely this is a mistake.
My letter to Delta via delta.com:

Can someone explain to me this URL http://www.delta.com/marketing/partnerbonus/index.jsp? The dates quoted are January 15 to March 15, 2008 yet the terms and conditions at the bottom quote registration dates of April and May of 2007. (?) Also, when I went to register it said I had already registered for the promotion. I had never registered for this promotion. However, in 2007 I registered for a similar promotion involving using 5 partners for 5K bonus miles. This promotion is slightly different with the multiples-of-3 partners.
