I am new to flyertalk, but would caution you about dealing with Etrade. I signed up for their 25K deal by depositing $50,000 last fall. The mileage was to be credited to my UAL account within 8 weeks. Now, six months later I am fighting with them because I never got the mileage. They are arguing that my account balance did not stay at the $50,000 level for the whole six months required under the promotion, although there is no minimun stated in the fine print.
