Still Waiting for Points from Double Ticket Day

Has anyone received their 1000 bonus tickets from Monday's Double Ticket Day yet? I have yet to be credited and I thought it was supposed to be credited no longer than 72 hours after?

Please help. I am really in need of contacting bing search club customer service. Does anyone have their email address or phone number? The email function on their website is broken. Thanks

You're lucky man.

Looks like they refund tickets for double prizes, but they don't in the case with double accounts

I now try to figure out if it works with same account and different address. Who knows...

Can you only redeem each mile prize only once in a lifetime or is there a wait period or something?

Thumbs down Well, I've been cut off for the year

I guess no Hamilton Beach food processors or George Foreman Contemporary grills will be given out as Christmas gifts from me this year.

Was this for mile redemptions only or did you also get some products? I can't see 4100 miles (max legal redepmtion per person/account) going over $600 value>

I have got other things including their xbox 360, however, I doubt the value is $600, as among the other things I got was a set of 3 Titlist golf balls. Clearly Microsoft is using full retail price in the most expensive of stores to set their IRS value on these.

Wife's account, whom ordered less stuff, by far, also gets the same message...

I stopped doing Bing when they went to the new "one per household" rules and the last try I had on new Bing accounts to airline accounts with previous redemptions were cancelled with no email or anything. I see by this thread many others are in the same boat.

I took a punt on more US redemptions because of the promo on some new Bing accounts but if they blacklisted our FF numbers, they'll get cancelled. At least this attempt is free, other than the time it takes to do the data entry in an anagram game.

I would have been done with this ages ago if I were doing data entry. It's only because I can max out two accounts simultaneously in 20-25 minutes on 'Picture This' that I've stuck around. My hunch is this request for Tax ID number is a new policy. I'm curious if others who redeemed a couple high end items, say an XBox 360 and a GPS now get this same message.

At any rate, Tax ID request is a killer on this. Especially considering I know the 1099 they send out is going to have inflated valuations and for all prizes redeemed for the year, not just the ones sent after the request for Tax ID has been complied with.

Yes, others are getting it now. It's new, so I'm sure someone just realized they were supposed to be doing it all along.

Please answer my question...

Okay, so I went back quite a few pages, but didn't see this question anywhere. I'm sure it's already been answered, but I couldn't find it, so my apologies in advance.

We all know you can't redeem more than 4,100 miles (I believe that's the cumulative maximum) on an airline account. However, I have 2 questions.

Can you redeem those miles on more than one account on the same airline? For instance, my account and my brother's account?

Also, can you redeem those miles on more two accounts on two different airlines? My AA account and my United account?

Thanks a lot in advance.

-Amy
