This is really ridiculous - I am at around $20k spend on 100k BIS so far this year, and have been 1k for 5 years but have not ever received an invitation to any single targeted promo. Yuck.

Do not presume to know how United's targeted marketing works by extrapolating form a tiny sample space. You are pretty much guaranteed to be wrong.

This is really ridiculous - I am at around $50k spend on 200k BIS so far this year and have been a GS since the outset but have not received an invitation to any single targeted promotion. Yuck.

Not presuming just guessing

Does anyone who received the offer fly other Star Alliance partners? I have flown on Singapore and Turkish airlines in business class several times this year and credit the miles to my United account. I was thinking that maybe I got the offer because United wants me to shift business from other Star Alliance partners to United.

No luck here. I am at 250k and met my 10k spending but never succeed in be able to register. I doubt that they highest fliers are even incentivized to fly more.

We are sorry.

The MileagePlus® number entered is not eligible for this promotion. Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries! Thanks for your interest in promotional offers from MileagePlus.

OP here. I received the promo and the only partners I flew on this year were TK (one roundtrip NCE-IST) and LH (FRA-NCE roundtrip) and that was award travel only.

For those (apparently very) few of us
who actually succeeded in registering for the triple award mile promo--even as I did, though I never received an invitation from UA--is there any way, other than actually taking a flight and checking the MP miles balances before and after, to verify that one is indeed registered for this promo?
I'd hate to have to rely exclusively on my own efforts when I might just be setting myself up to be....

I'm well over $10k PQD, but haven't even hit Gold PQM/PQS yet (will exceed Gold PQM after next week). No joy with this promo.
