You're right, I jumped the gun a few days of the 70 day mark. The "8" in the 8-10 weeks is well past however. Shopping malls aren't exactly the model of reliability at this point. The offer had been pulled quickly, and no one has posted any confirmation of receiving miles. I'm pretty sure this wouldn't be the first time people would have to ask for miles that were supposed to be posted automatically by a shopping mall. Call me crazy, but something that is largely automated by computers shouldn't take 10 weeks.
