Interesting thing happened. I logged on, changed the phone #, got the 1000 pt. popup and the total points went up 1000.
I logged out, logged back in, and total points is back to initial total.
So I logged out and in again, nothing has changed. I changed the email address, got the popup again and the total points increment 1000.
I logged out & in, point total is still 1000 up. I changed the fax #, and got no popup or point change.
The net result is that I got 1000 total points for my efforts. In line with what people said would happen, but a strange way for it to occur. Time was @ 00:40 CDT on 1 October.
