A friend of mine... ok fine.... it was me... gone through the
same thing. Instead of giving up half of the 370,000 miles
in a settlement, a phone call was placed to the program
asking if the miles/award ticket can be sold on Ebay.
Two days later, the acct was frozen. That was 3 years ago
and the miles are still frozen. The airline is still bankrupt
and they are in no hurry to resolve this.(which is just fine
by me)
