IME, as well ... others on the thread - its seems utterly random as to whether they actually refund the appropraite amount of deducted tickets back into accounts. I actually had less refunded than should have been, but then was refunded twice the amount I was supposed to have. Go figure.
I have read many posts now about the problems people have had when redeeming miles with LSC and having tickets go missing.
I have had good luck with LSC up until tonight when I went to redeem for 2500 Skymiles. I got the following message just a bit ago after a long delay in processing my order:
Frequent Flyer Mile prizes are temporarily unavailable. Please wait 1-2 business days and try again. We're sorry for any inconvenience and thank you for your patience.
Has anyone else gotten this reponse? To make the whole thing confusing, despite this message they still deducted the 4300 tickets from my account. It's like POOF they are gone! Ugh! No bueno!
I did email them to get this resolved so we'll see what they do to resolve this issue.

I redeemed and got a confirmation number successfully, approx 2 hours ago. 1000 AA miles.
Does anybody know how long these games will be online? I'm thinking of saving up for a big ticket item. Or not.
Also, for those of you who run several LSC accounts, how is it that Air Incentives doesn't notice your name for say Delta AND American miles?
No one knows how long for sure, they could be gone tomorrow, you never know with Microsoft. However, LSC has been around, on and off for a couple of years now.
Air Incentives has the authority to deposit miles in whichever account that you request. LSC has said (somewhere in this forum-email response) that one may deposit miles in any account that you may request, as many people have multiple FF accounts. Now, for the people that have multiple LSC accounts, I have not heard of anyone getting caught for that as of yet, but that is also a fuzzy area in the terms and conditions.

Its been going for over a year now, since April 2007, so I feel pretty confident in its long term stability. I figure unless something huge happens for msn's search engine, than they will continue to run the site. If they ever do something like purchase yahoo and can actually make the search a sucess oni ts own, then get out. Otherwise I would just keep playing.
