Promotion overload

I got a reminder this morning about earning a "£50 flight voucher by flying 3 return trips between 28 January and 6 April". But I don't remember getting the original email? Oh, except some people are getting £50 for 4 returns, and some people are getting £100 for 7 (or 8), while some get £75 for 6 (or 5)

And then last week there was "fly one return trip before 29 February and we'll give you either 4,500 bonus destinations miles or a free lounge pass"

So, which one is valid? Or maybe they both are? If I fly six times will I get 4500 miles and a £50 voucher?

What about those of you who got "every time your friends fly bmi before 19th April 2008, they'll earn a bottle of wine for themselves, and an additional one for you too"? Do you get wine too?

And of course, the previous week was "20,000 destinations miles if you spend £250 on your new bmi American Express® Credit Card from MBNA within 90 days". (I am approved, apparently, but still waiting waiting waiting for my card...)

Of course, there was the newbie 9000 miles joining offer, although doesn't apply to me clearly

I'm all for targeted promotions - e.g. doesn't do Tesco any harm - but really, this is v confusing, and there isn't anywhere on the website or my flybmi to serve as some kind of central clearing house to list everything that's on offer to you, or what you have signed up for

V perplexing... Is there a new marketing person at Donny Hall trying to make his/her mark?
