I'm just requalifying as Plat for 2011 and am hoping I get a card that works when swiped. I've asked for a replacement but never received it.

I've tried using my President's Club card and THAT doesn't work either. Is this something new or am I just unlucky?
Sometimes those get de-magnetized, specially if you put them near cellphones. But having that happen with 2 cards sounds like bad luck to me. I haven't had a problem with mine.
