Just signed up for AA/MCI 10K miles. The newest catch is that you have to wait for 90 days (instead of 30) for the first 5K miles to post. I'll think about canceling then and rejoining if they call and beg.
How did you get 10K? I only got 3K? Is it that call card offer for non-U.S. residents?
Anyway, I cancelled MCI after all my 3,000 miles posted. The last month I had them, I made only one call on MCI for 20 cents. But all those taxes and fees brought my bill to over $5.00. Right now I have no long distance carrier on my home phone (I must 10+ dial) because I make most long distance calls from my cell phone which works fine in my house. Having no long distance carrier saves me those long distance access charges. But if MCI calls back begging I'll ask for some more miles. They haven't yet, probably because they can't afford the phone call, as they're in bankruptcy.
