I agree. You are a proven NON-customer with no flights in 3 years, so you will have trouble throwing weight around.

And, you were surely sent notification of the rules, though few of us read all that stuff. Expiration dates are printed on lots of statements though.

As said before, try if you can, but they are in the right and see little value in making you mad. If they give in, you now have enough miles for 8 domestic flights meaning even less chance that you will be spending money with them. So, why should they break the rules and give you the miles.

Let us know what happens.

Here is an outside shot at getting them back. Can you find a hotel or car rental activity someplace that would have kept you going for another few years? Try to get manual credit which would reactivate the account.
