Question Is MileTracker able to verify your miles/points are correct?

I read the info at MileTracker, and it sounds like a great program. Is it actually able to 'make sure' you get your miles/points?

Example: sign up for credit card (16,000 miles on xx airline); buy tickets on their website 2x miles for each $ spent + 500 miles for booking online, 2x miles for each flight. Buy from online partner, get 3x per $ spent.

OK-16,000 miles, spent $500 on tickets online = 1,000 miles + 500 miles, trip is 6,000 round trip = 12,000; bought $100 from online partner= 300 miles.
So - miles posted 'should be' 29,800 miles for this scenario.

But, how do you know you got all your points/miles when they don't post for 6-8 weeks, and not at the same time and you've moved on to other purchases and trips. One program I belong to, won't even verify which bonus programs I am enrolled in/when they expire (long thread on another forum).

Basic question-how do you know you got what you were supposed to get, without keeping track of them yourself too?
