Can you register for more than one of these promos at the same time? I'm just curious. I don't want to screw anything up, but the system seems to be letting my bf register for 2 of the new offers.
Is he going to end up with nothing in the end or a lot of nice bonuses? What do you guys think? We both have brand new UA accounts so we know very little about them. They're just matching the fly-I fares so we're now going to be using them more.

I've registered for evrything under the sun lately and flown the qualified flights. But because I was not targeted I've never received the bonuses, the tickets, etc. If it is targeted they know it. Their website might be slow but it is definitely accurate.
