After Many Years of Using MyPoints Droping Them

Anyone notice the travel award options/redemptions are dwindling? Have been waiting to see $100 Marriott certs return--today there is nothing for Marriott. Also, I'm having problems getting points for the click throughs for 2 hotel stays (Marriott and Crowne Plaza). I've provided them with receipts and e-mails from the hotels thanking me for my stays; MyPoints says they can see I clicked through. However, before awarding my points they must get the hotels to authorize. I replied that's not what's stated in their offer and if I don't get what's promised I'll file a complaint with BBB. They replied that they can terminate anyone's account at any time. Don't appreciate the threat--I have never done anything that abused their rules/program.

I shop online through other (airline) portals. Only use MyPoints for their special offers, travel click throughs, when buying gift cards and, of course, the lengthy surveys. After their threat today, I cashed in my 12,000 points for UA miles and will drop them.
