Ordered two last week and am now waiting for delivery. If they don't arrive in time, I won't load 20€ onto them.

The info is clearer here:

http://miles.mtxc.eu/en/?utm_source=..._Promo_EN_0816

It feels like something Russian to me. I'm a bit reluctant to give cc and address details to any company based over there, frankly. I had a look at the TCs and I wasn't too sure about the bit where the SIM is inactive, or unused. But decent offers are very thin on the ground these days.
I also read this:

*offer valid one time only per each activated MTX Connect account.
One Miles&More account can be assigned to one MTX Connect account only. In case of chargeback or refund, miles bonus will not be credited.
This marketing offer valid for the first 1000 ordered SIM-cards.
Miles will be accrued according to marketing offer conditions.

EDIT: the "offer valid for the first 1000 ordered SIM-cards" clause was not there last week when I filled in my application. Not a good start I reckon...

I remember lines (1), (2) and (4). I didn't see (3) when ordering last week.

Oh well, that counts me out then, they will have surely reached that 1,000 figure by now. And I don't regret it, there's something funny about this promotion to my nose. I get very intuitive about these things, in the same way I'm quite good at sniffing out the best restaurant on a busy street without any prior knowledge. For example, one thing that bothered me was the total lack of traction that this offer got, on any of the blogs.

Do keep us updated with how it goes!

Almost unexpectedly, given the updates on the T&Cs we highlighted yesterday, 5000 miles got posted today (MTX Connect Welcome Miles)!
I definitely can't complain.

Do you know how long it took for you get your miles? Just topped up/activated on Monday, hoping I'm one of the first 1,000.

The welcome bonus of 5000 miles is for activating your card and topping up 20 EUR.

You will only get additional miles once you spend your balance (50 miles / EUR, so max. 1000 extra miles once you've spent your EUR 20 balance) .

3000 for 10E via Handelsblatt subscription: https://www.miles-and-more.com/onlin...ggr_1592252523

The T&C say: "Award miles will be credited for only one order per household and per Miles & More member within a six-month period.", but I'm not sure what does this apply to.

Is it only one paper subscription within 6mo, or just Handelsblatt? If I did the 5k WiWo subscription, can I still get miles from this?

WiWo is not Handelsblatt.

Anyway, this offer is misleading. The exact terms are:

Ja, ich bestelle den Handelsblatt Digitalpass Business für 3 Monate zum Vorzugspreis von insgesamt nur € 9,99. Nach den ersten 3 Monaten erhalten Sie als Dankeschön für die weitere Nutzung 3.000 Meilen.
You get 3000 miles only after continuing "using" Handelspass Digitalpass after the initial 3 month offer.

I hate all this stupid time wasting computer rubbish. Has anyone else had difficulty in getting the activation link to work? It gave me an error message then sent me to a site where I had to input everything again, but no field for the M&M number (of course). I know if I start all over again from the page linked above it will not allow me because my email address has already been used. I will let this drop quickly, can't be bothered with it.

I don't know. I'm still trying to work it out! I just discovered this afternoon that the offer has gone to the email address I must have used last time I had an Abo with Handelsblatt, even though I had inputted a new email address this time. Bit spooky. That's probably why the link didn't work (hence my rant about computer rubbish). Anyway, I haven't had time to sit down and try and sort it out yet.
