What I thought I understood from the Rep (though I didn't want to believe it) was that they expire sequentially, and no amount of activity (except redemption) would save the miles. Is this so?
On your statement (and their website), you can see how many miles expire each month. That's right, they expire and activity does not extend them.

You can transfer miles to others to use but they cannot combine miles from multiple accounts on awards. So, effectively, my understanding is that in cases like this, you really can't do much other than maybe ordering magazines.

Remember, it is not about you choosing them and them thanking you. It is about them doing you a favor by giving you miles :-(
