I stopped accumulating Nonepass miles over a year ago; which is to say I stopped, cold-turkey, charging/using my Chase/Continental co-branded credit card. Who would want to accumulate miles that are very UNuseable ?

Wonder if Chase knows they are losing substantial charges from me alone, and I assume the problem extrapolates to other Chase/Continental affinity cardholders, due to Continental's very obvious screwing of Nonepass flyers over aprotacted period, literally as a corporate "gameplan" IMO ? If Chase reads these threads, they should know.

Yeah, Continental wants [our] dollars when they sell their worthless miles to affinity partners, but they seem not to be willing to want to redeem same. Tsk

I have long wondered why Randy doesn't establish the CONSUMER-FRIENDLY criteria of SCORING DOMESTIC 25-K SEAT AVAILABILITY to be a major component of the airline freddy (guess it could be extrapolated to hotels also).

As it stands now - Every year that Nonepass wins - I believe Freddy awards lose credibility, and certainly applicability to my life and travel patterns.

But - main point of this was to highlight how Chase loses a respectable chunk of annual charges of mine because of their tie-in now to Nonepass.
