"Please contact the MP service center for assistance" error

Is anyone else getting the 'please contact the MP service center for assistance with your account' error when trying to log on United.com.? Have been on with web support and done all the usual tricks - different browsers, deleted cookies and history, new passwords...to no avail. App access works. Needing to book some complex itineraries but can't get on. Thanks for any help.

Not me. Trying from ORD and everything seems fine.

That being said.... it is the weekend and... United IT has been known of doing shenanigans / updates on the weekends that break a lot of things

I am getting this also. Strange thing is that I am able to login using the iOS app and mobile version of the site.

I reported this to them last week and still no joy. I urge everyone experiencing this issue to please contact support so they can escalate appropriately.

I'm having the same issue. I am looking in December for SFO-BKK-SFO. I can get the options for SFO-BKK but when I click for the return or even try a o/w booking for BKK-SFO I get the red ! mark:

Might be some late Saturday night IT funkiness. I booked a simple partner award over two hours ago and it still hasn't ticketed.

I thought that but I wanted to say I first checked on Friday in Thailand which would have been Thursday in the US. I'll wait until I get back home in California on Monday afternoon to check again.

I can get options for HKT-SFO or CNX-SFO but if I try starting just BKK-SFO still getting the error message.

UA Website (CO.bomb) Not Fully Operational?

Just wondering if others are noting that the layout as presented on the site seems to be different and also noting that Award Accelerator options not present??

Haven't checked for some days, so maybe this was discussed earlier in another thread??

Recognition of MP anniversary

Not a problem, but a nice little recognition. I haven't seen this yet, but when looking at my pitiful mileage accrual on mystatus.united.com. I had a congratulatory splash page. "Congratulations on 33 years with MileagePlus " or something to that effect.

I see that when I log into United.com now.
  • Congratulations on 30 Years with Mileage Plus.
  • We'll See You Wednesday for your flight to Tokyo.

Are people still having award search troubles?

Still get the error message trying to look up BKK-SFO or SFO-ALL. I can get some idea of what is available by searching CNX/HKT/KBV-SFO but feel the added connection constraint may be mucking up some of what is actually available.

I have been searching BKK from multiple hubs lately, though for this summer. I don't receive error messages, but I don't see anything worth booking either.

Just for grins, I tried your search (BKK->SFO) for a random day in December and had results return as well.

Well I was using Chrome. Just tried Safari which had slipped my mind and now I see results. @:-)

And truth be told as I'm shoring up things with my friend I may end up actually doing CNX-SFO (which was always showing results) and not stay in BKK 2x during the trip.

"Mileage Plus Earnings" on itinerary page do not match up with airfare on receipt, and PQM/PQS/PQD not laid out on receipt at all
