WTH? Did they reuse the webform for the credit card information signup?
It's sneaky stuff like this that keeps me from ever signing up for these things.
That and the fact that the most I've ever won in my life was $10.on an airport slot machine at LAS back in the 80s
Besides, I've already got 1000000+ in my Atmos account, but given the significant devaluation on mileage earned and minimal availability on all but the most expensive international premium class awards, well, while I appreciate the status perks, this whole business of accruing miles has lost most of its allure for me.
So, thanks but no thanks to what is essentially a phishing expedition for our emails. Besides, the odds are pretty good I'll never win even 1 mile off this "contest", and given the time and money I've spent earning my cache of miles, it's cheaper and less frustrating to just purchase my overseas Business Class travel outright.
