e-rewards alternatives?
For years I've used e-rewards to stave off expiring accounts. In my spare time, I'd do some random surveys and accumulate points in their program, then when one of my FF programs was getting close to expiration, I could transfer 50 miles or something to it to reset the clock for another 18-24 months.
Recently I tried to do this, but they now have a "verification" process where you take a selfie, upload it and a copy of your drivers license. For some reason (they didn't say why), I failed the verification process, so they've now permanently disabled my account. I've asked how to appeal the decision and re-try the verification process (apparently you get ONE SHOT) but haven't gotten anything back and likely won't. So I guess it's time to find alternatives. What's everyone else use to top off various program accounts? It was nice in that it covered most of the airline and hotel programs.... but not sure I like the draconian verification process they've instated and won't provide any help with figuring out what went wrong in the process.... just disable an account that I've been using successfully for 15+ years.
