I was going to wait awhile before bringing up this point, but since you have . . .

I am currently looking at some extra half segments in my account that I know I don't really deserve. If they get taken away over the next couple of months, I'll treat it as one more merger glitch, and not a big deal. If they are still in my account next fall, I'm going to forget where they came from and how many I really deserved, and I'm going to rely on them when planning my yearend travel. I will not be happy at all if they disappear at the end of the year, with no time to adjust.

We went through something like this last year. UAI assured folks that no one would lose status, but at least one person was reporting a problem.

So, United, here's my request. Please let us know SOON if you are going to treat this error as an accidental benefit of flying during March or if you plan to adjust our accounts as soon as you can. Thanks!
