I wasn't so much annoyed with the mileage posting as I was with the downtime. I'm not talking 10 minutes here and there, I'm talking several hours a day during prime business hours spanning at least a week. I received error messages with most essential functionality (Flight search, flight status, Account Login all did not work). And this was all leading up to an International trip in which a GPU still hadn't cleared. This was not a complete outage of the system as other FTers had no issue during the these times and I was never informed of an outage of this nature during business hours. As far as I'm concerned they probably have no idea why I experienced the outage. They got to my email 2 weeks late and its doubtful they went back to determine why it was down and ensure other customers do not experience similar outages unless absolutely necessary. BTW, my account never changed in the midst of all these outtages, so it wasn't an infamous sweep.
So in all no this is not a Level 1 severe issue but I don't think it would hurt their CS if they retained the PMUA strategy of at least throwing a bone at customers they inconvenience

I was sitting on the 1st row right side (i.e. last) but I was tired so I didn't say anything.
I just wish they did it all consistently.
Now that you mention it, on two flts in BF they did a U shape path for taking preferences of main entrees.

I thought you couldn't use an RPU within 24 hours?
