My points have only failed to post once, and that was when I used an entertainment card as well. When I called about the points, the iDine person called me on it and said the restaurant had noted that I "used a coupon" and so was ineligible for iDIne miles. About 4 or 5 other times I successfully double dipped on ENT and iDine.
