Concerning the "currency promotion":

I need to fly 3 times LX, or LH intercontinental return trips in First Class between 1st Feb and 30th April to get 45k bonus miles. Needless to say I won't make it.

Notes: They don't specifically talk about paid flights...maybe a good time to spend my miles in order to gain a few more

Agree with SleepOverGreenland, had last year a peak with 105k miles in this period.
Last year I had a low in that time after a peak just before it, so I don't think it's that easy.

They usually talk about status miles and also only use this as basis for the calculations (considering all other promo restrictions of course). I'm sorry to disappoint you, but for award flights you will earn exactly zero status miles.

I am really upset... seems you guys get the all time promotions from LH... I'm a SEN since last Sept. and don't get anything!!!
Still, have to do all the usual claiming of miles for every third flight as they are never credited!!... Is it because it's Switzerland and not Germany??????

New Promo: Austrian news4u: Russia

Quote:
  • Austrian news4u: Russia (01.04.-30.06.) NEW on 26.02.
    http://www.miles-and-more.at/russia
    Double award miles on direct OS flights between Vienna and Sochi or Vienna and Nizhniy Novgorod, (OS 615 - OS 618), max. 6 flights
@ Tribolet: I haven't received any targeted promos in quite a while as well... Swiss used to be a source of great promos, but that seems to have dissappeared (another M&M enhancement?). Locationwise Germany seems to be the best if numbers of targeted promos recieved counts and of course flying often in expensive booking classes. The company taking best care of its very frequent flyers (events) is Austrian Airlines IMHO.

Focus Schule Scam; Promotion

Focus Schule Scam; Promotion

I saw the focus schule promotion, you get some miles if you
gift a mini abo and ordered it.
It said no cancellation neccesary.
Now I received a new bill, and when I call they said I should have
canceled it!

Please reply if the same happened to you or if you have copied
the text where it said no cancellation. (I didnt save it)

Focus Schule was definitely speculating that reader maybe fall in love with their magazine or forget to unsubscribe - I'm sorry to hear that you are part of the second group. Not much you can do about it though now other than canceling it for the next possible date.

Just write them a letter that you don't accept the extension and don't pay the bill. If they attempt to withdraw money from your account, tell your bank to reverse it. Got out of a few nasty subscriptions this way. Even the pesky PVZ Stockelsdorf couldn't do anything.

Upcoming T-Mobile Promo: Frühjahrsaktion (Spring promo)

Just read on the T-Mobile M&M page that there will be again a "Frühjahrs" (Spring) promotion from March 1 until April 30, 2008. No details given but probably similar to last years one with some 5k extra Miles.

Link: www.t-mobile.de/miles-and-more , on the bottom of page

I have also posted that info in the T-Mobile thread but then was unsure if I should not have posted it in here, too.

If these double-posts should be avoided, please let me know how to post these in the future (in this vs. other threads)

It will be 10.000 additional miles for a new contract and 5.000 additional for the Blackberry solution.
