Welcome to Flyertalk.

I missed the part of your message where you explained why you do not believe this statement. Have you looked at the Skymiles Terms & Conditions which explicitly confirm this?

Currently, miles will not expire as long as you participate in one of the following activities at least once every two years; mileage expires midnight Eastern time (-5 GMT), 24 months from the date of the last activity:
  • Earn miles for travel on a qualifying Delta, Delta ShuttleŽ, SkyTeam, or other SkyMiles airline partner flights.
  • Earn or redeem miles with one of the SkyMiles program partners including hotels, car rentals, Delta SkyMiles Credit Card from American Express, international credit card partners, SkyMiles Dining & Hotels by Rewards NetworkSM, MilePoint.com, mortgage lenders, CAP magazine subscriptions, real estate, or telecommunications partners.
  • Purchase miles through SkyMiles Buy Miles.
  • Receive miles through SkyMiles Gift Miles.
  • Transfer miles (or receive transferred miles) through SkyMiles Transfer Miles.
  • Redeem miles on Delta, Delta Shuttle, a SkyTeam partner, or another SkyMiles airline partner.
