As I understand it, the opportunity to earn EQM miles with the old Signature Card has been extended to June 30??? From a May 9 e-mail:

As a WorldPerks Visa Signature Cardmember, you have had the ability to earn up to 20,000 Elite Qualifying Miles (EQMs) toward your WorldPerks Elite status each calendar year.

In light of the upcoming mid-year card changes, U.S. Bank and Northwest Airlines have modified the 2009 EQM promotion to allow for a pro-rata award tier of EQMs, regardless of whether your spending is on your WorldPerks Visa Signature or FlexPerks Visa Signature Card. Additionally, after June 30, 2009 no spending will qualify for EQMs. Spending from January 1, 2009 through June 30, 2009 will be awarded based on the following table:

Net Total Spend* .... Total Elite Qualifying Miles

more than $50,000 ....... 20,000

$25,000 to $49,999 ....... 10,000

$12,500 to $24,999....... 5,000

Less than $12,500 .......... 0
*Net Total Spend between January 1, 2009 and June 30, 2009.
