As noted on the SkyMiles Shopping site, and in this thread, Verizon is not offering 2300 miles for a charger. That being said, you do not need a Verizon contract to purchase the charger.

The FAQ provides contact information and what to do if miles haven't posted. You're not required to read the Q&As about policy that you're not interested.

Just hope I'm not the only one keeping this 2,300 SM promise on my radar, since we'll soon need to ask the merchant to hand these over. Patience, I know. Curious if you've still got it in mind at least. Not worth the biggest battle in the world but an inquiry, definitely.

Just an update for anyone who followed this. Got a reply to my inquiry: "We will automatically post 500 bonus miles to your Delta SkyMiles account within the next 10 business days." Good enough for me, but understand if others pursue more. It was a non-mistake looking offer in terms of only offering 2300 miles but the terms were more clearly displayed.

re:
Sorry for the lack of detail. Below is the complete communication. I proactively inquired regarding the Delta and PC purchases. For Delta, my reply came from [email protected] Basically, I'd just said that I'd made these purchases, had heard from others that they may have been in error, was wondering whether the visual offer would be honored, and whether I needed to do anything else to expediate the process. Honestly, the reply is pretty straight up and addresses the fact that the offer in this case very much may have enticed accessory purchases and was not an obvious error.

"Recently certain Verizon Wireless accessories were displaying on the Delta SkyMiles? Shopping Mall with an incorrect offer of 2,300 Delta Skymiles. This was the result of a Cartera Commerce, Inc. system error. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you, and would like to remedy the situation.
While the offer featured on the Delta SkyMiles Shopping Mall gave a visual indication that online purchases of certain Verizon Wireless accessories would award 2,300 miles, this clearly was a mistake given the price of the item and the terms of the mileage offer limiting miles earning to the purchase of new wireless service plans. Verizon?s Terms and Conditions for the offer clearly state that miles can only be earned on new wireless service plans, and not for accessories purchases. The specific Terms & Conditions language ? which was available on the offer details page ? is as follows:
?Reward eligible for reward plans only (new service, family share, add a line, upgrade and prepay). Reward is not eligible on accessories.?
In addition, the Terms and Conditions for the Delta SkyMiles Shopping Mall, which apply to all purchases, also state that the conditions and restrictions imposed by the merchant define the requirements for a qualifying purchase, control your eligibility for miles and limit liability for inaccuracies on the Delta SkyMiles Shopping Mall.
While each of these Terms & Conditions relieve Cartera from an obligation to award miles for any accessory purchases which were incorrectly displayed as including a miles offer, we nevertheless realize this error was an inconvenience to you and may have encouraged you to buy an accessory you did not need or intend to keep. For your inconvenience, we therefore would like to offer you the following one time courtesy bonus:
?We will automatically post 500 bonus miles to your Delta SkyMiles account within the next 10 business days.
