Delta CSR's tell me they can't send me this certificate.
I understand. However DL is nevery going to do that. Since the record has your SM number on it, you could always after getting FB to credit call back and ask for credit to SM. They would have no way of knowing you manually got FB credit and thus would grant credit. Unfortunately since it was a DL reservation there's no way to get credit to another program after the fact. FF programs just aren't setup to do this and for good reason. Otherwise people would use the confusion to double dip. (Which to make clear I understand you're not doing)
