There's so many deals out there.

Sign up for credit cards and get...x points.
Sign up for phone service and get...x points.

I'm just wondering how many flyertalkers sign up for one of these deals, and then never use the product. And did you give back those points? Hmmm I don't think so.

Now these are (somewhat dishonest).

What M I L E S P Y is doing is actually a service.
Flyertalkers may know these guys. But the general public does not.
I'm curious as to the percentages of those joining the program (FT'ers vs general public).

The airline/hotel/car/phone people create these programs for a reason. In this case it's to sell magazines.
Don't think for a minute that Goldpoints is losing a dime on this. My guess is they're overcome with joy about Milespy.
