Just checked my M&M - 10,000 miles are there, two months from beginning subscription. Enjoying the articles too.

Confirm here as well, 10,000 miles posted. And I managed to change the country of delivery rather seamlessly as well.

Oh no! Finally had some extra dough to drop on this, and it's down to only 3.5k

Miles, come back!

Me too, I'm hopping they will offer the 10k again soon.

It does not specifically prohibit existing subscribers. It's worth calling and ask I think.

Great, just saw it today on my Barclays Miles and More MC e Newsletter.

I like the Economist and I like it more with an extra helping of 10,000 miles ^

Have a look at post #22. Seems that you might have to wait 6 months before signing for a new subscription.

I was just wondering, has anybody managed to establish if taking out a sub and using a European credit card works ok? I have a very good friend in NY who would like a sub, and I will be in the US next week. So the website won't keep defaulting to an overpriced European link.

Back in Feb. too, subscribed with US delivery address and a swiss credit card/billing address. Worked fine.

After I got the 10K, I changed the delivery address to Switzerland (via e-mail). And since then, I enjoy reading it in CH without any surcharge ^.
