Request for award ticket
Hello, I don't think this has been asked / covered before:
I filled out a M&B request today for 3 award tickets on SAA for a domestic sector in South Africa, mainly to see how they would price out the quote in points and taxes. So, I filled out the first page and then pressed the submit button expecting to find a quote for the points and taxes required on the next page. Instead it was a note saying thank you for submitting your request.
Now, I expect that they will eventually come back to me by email with a quote for available flights, but I just want to confirm that I am not now obligated to purchasing the flights. I can't see how I could be, since they have not supplied a quote yet, but just want to make sure, as I will probably buy the flights instead (as I expect the quote to be too high) and don't want to wait too long to do that.
Can someone please confirm this?
With thanks,
tb

Last time I was looking for TG F to PEK and filled in the request form they could not see the TG availability I could see on ANA and provided an option on Air China which I kindly declined.

Meaning, if i give my Aegean ff # and don't get any mileage credit, can i then try to claim those miles with a diffent *A partner given that I did not get credit for it yet or does my try for Aegean miles ( in the event r class will not give me mileage there) kill my chance of receiving mileage credit for this flight with a different partner that normally would give for this fare class ( like united) ?
Any feedback is appreciated.
Thanks.

Card expiration
Hi,
I signed up for the program in June 2011, and have not yet credited miles. I'm confused about the 2 year vs 3 year expiration -- can I still credit miles to the account now? Or should I simply open a new account? And do the tier miles earned at signup count toward the total, still?
Thanks.

Doesn't seem that complicated. You have hade you r account for more than 24 months wiothout activity?
T&C chapter 1 §10:
So it should be closed. Can you log into the account? That seems like an easy test to find out if it is still there...
T&C chapter 1 §10:
If a Basic Member has not flown at least once within a period of twenty four (24) months from the date of his/her last registered and Account-validated flight, then his/her Card and Account will be automatically inactivated and cannot be used for any purpose (mileage accrual or redemption) ...

Email contact to supervisor?
Hi all,
Does anybody have an email contact to a supervisor at Miles & Bonus? Any time I write to [email protected], I either don't get any answer for weeks, or I get an answer from Vasia Konstantara. Since she isn't helping me at all, and I can't get her to connect me to her supervisor, I'm kinda stuck.
Does anybody have a direct contact to someone above her? Or just someone else? Anyone else at M&B?
Thanks

Great FAQ, BTW. ^
