This really stinks! I have been very unhappy with UA lately, and this may just push me to fly UA less or give up flying UA completely...

Doesn't this equate to false advertisement?
Do you have any updates on this? EVA's system now accepts MP# and it is supposed to be retroactive to 3/3. So, UA should give you the credit.

Why were you angry in the first place? Did someone from MP tell you that they won't give you the miles?
