I got this card about a month ago (after a long sequence of denial, ignored reconsideration letter, and eventual call to a credit analyst -- but I digress). Yesterday I received an email announcing a promo, apparently targeted, for (not quite) double miles:
Earn non-stop double miles on your everyday purchases
Dear Beltway,
Your US Airways Dividend Miles® MasterCard® has never been so rewarding. Every $1 you spend over $400 on all non-US Airways purchases between May 1, 2011 and June 30, 2011 will earn double miles.¹
Watch your miles add up twice as fast when you use your card at places like:
• Grocery stores
• Restaurants
• Movie theaters
• Gas stations
• Clothing stores
• Hotel and car rentals
Just use your card every time you pay and see how quickly your miles add up. You'll be redeeming miles toward great vacation getaways in no time at all!
¹ Offer is valid for select cardmembers and is not transferable. You will earn double miles on all qualifying net retail purchases made with your US Airways Dividend Miles MasterCard after you charge over $400 each month, from May 1, 2011 through June 30, 2011. Cardmembers are eligible to earn up to a maximum of 8,000 miles per month. Purchases made at US Airways do not qualify for this double earn promotion. To receive your miles, your account must be open and in good standing. You will not earn miles on purchases made during periods when your account is delinquent, your balance exceeds your credit line or your account is otherwise not in good standing as defined in your Credit Card Cardmember Agreement. Your miles will appear on your statement up to 6-8 weeks after the end of the promotion.
