I was catching up on an old e-mail account (to which Delta sends my statements) and my last statement said the my miles were zero! And that they expired June 31 2009. Wha?? I have a entire folder full of statements prior to them going paperless showing a "31 Dec 2009" SkyMiles Mileage Expiration. Now, all of a sudden, past statements online have the expiration date left blank. Something doesn't seem right here...
At a minimum, you can reactivate your miles for $50.

Yes, DL did some nasty, consumer-unfriendly things to expiration dates including retroactive changes.
