Heres an Idea

Im in the same boat as you friend. Heres what I did....I called MP and got some Indian operator (not surprised)...and he told me to call after I have made my purchase from the MP Mall to have the miles reinstated since i made my purchase for miles BEFORE the expiration date of 12/31/07. We will see how it goes.

I made a purchase at Nordstroms.com thru the Mileage PLUS Mall to keep the miles alive ( I will return the item once the miles posted)
