Points lapsed before redemption took hold...
My 3 year old's MP account balance was set to expire 31 Jan. To extend the the expiration date, I ordered a few magazines from MagsforMiles on the last week of Jan. I got the redemption confirmation promptly enough.
Today, I see that all his miles have all been wiped out. Now I am wondering if the mags are going to come through.
Lesson learned - If you want to order mags to keep miles from expiring, do it months in advance...
