This is very good to know thanks for the update

So you just changed the name on the account and SS and got the bonus again? Was this with DTV or Dish and which Airline program bonus?

We have DTV, but if I can get either the UA, SWA (or even AA) bonus I can put the account in my wife's name when its up in August.
