Greenpoints-Bait and Switch Warning

I know most of you stopped using Greenpoints when they stopped mileage certificates, I mostly did too. However, before they stopped (back in April) I signed up for a special 50,000 greenpoint offer to switch to Sprint. My greenpoints never showed up. After many faxes and countless emails. Greenpoints will NOT honor the sign up bonus. They have only given me 15 greenpoints even though I was due well over 20,000 greenpoints. They also said they will give 2,000 points, but have not done so. They are saying that even though I switched from their email for the big offer, they only believe they should give me a different amount that was shown on their site at the time the ACTUAL carrier change was made by Sprint. This is a classing bait and switch becasue no one can make their phone switch within a day or two that the email offers are valid.

Be careful of Greenpoints as they sound like they are in shaky ground. Even this decision took them weeks and weeks to make.
