I try to accumulate miles on two airlines. This allows me to dine at my favorite Dining for Miles restaurants twice a month (and receive miles for each airline.)

Please explain this to me. My experience has been that the third party firm which administers all the mileage dining programs does NOT allow us to accrue dining mileage credit on multiple airlines' FF programs. Once we register our credit card[s], the system will not allow the same card to be used under any other airlines' dining mileage program.

Of course we could register different credit cards under different airlines' dining mileage programs but then we wouldn't be able to double dip and it would become costly as I am not aware of any "no fee" credit cards [other than AMEX which as a special promotion sometimes waives the first year's fee] which allow us to accumulate an airlines' FF miles.

So what's the trick?

Thanks.
