It's now showing properly on the app, and on the website.

And, as of this morning, on the cowtool.

Can Aeroplan add?

Total of our pool miles was off by about 10 points a few days ago. With no obvious sensible explanation, such as some credit missing, just adding wroing.

Then later in the day, it corrected itself.

One wonders, does someone add these by hand? Followed by someone else checking and correcting mistakes?

2FA randomly re-enabled on my account somewhere in the last couple of hours. Frigging AC.

Disabling it generated an e-mail telling me I had done so, which I believe is new.

If the email's new, it's possible they turned it on for everyone.

You think they turned on 2FA for everyone in the last couple of hours? Because it wasn't on when I signed in a couple hours ago. I'm not sure why sending the e-mail would mean they forced 2FA on everyone, those could easily be entirely separate things.

That email being new might suggest 2FA had been accidentally or fraudulently disabled for certain accounts. If they went to the effort of creating a notification for it, they also might have turned it on for everyone in case a "hacker" had disabled it.

But I'm just hypothesizing.

We got a schedule change notice for three bookings. All same flight, different dates. Fourth one, we did not. Funny thing, it's the same exact flight for myself, and my wife, on a separate reservation, same itinerary, did.

Any logic? Or someone going through bookings and randomly picking some, missing others?
Anyway, sounds very amateurish.

Randomly frigging re-enabled again in the last 24 hours or so.

Speaking of 2FA, AIr Canada, if you're reading this, please change this:

Code:
<input class="gig-tfa-code-textbox" type="text" tabindex="0" aria-label="Enter code:">
to this:

Code:
<input class="gig-tfa-code-textbox" type="number" tabindex="0" aria-label="Enter code:">
That will allow devices with small screens and virtual keyboards (i.e. every phone) to display a numeric keypad instead of the full QWERTY keyboard, when all you want is a 6 digit number.

I sense a cowtool browser extension to change the page source to make life better. Although I don't know how that works with mobile devices. Bonus feature of better filtering on reward searches.

Funnily enough, your post looks like this, which in turn renders it unreadable, which... I find very ironic given the complaint Obviously not your fault.

Online redemption frustrations

Trying to redeem MEL-BKK-IST-OPP for 110,000 points + $127 taxes in Business as per the Award Booking Chart. MEL-BKK-IST is on Thai, and IST-OPO is on Turkish.

On the last page of the booking process I get an error message '34651 Segment Sell Failure' and 'Booking Redemption - 37181' on both website and app. Thought I would try calling to book since I have searched on other programmes to confirm the seats are there on the dates I want (so not phantom) but whenever I call (within opening hours of the call centre, 0700-midnight ET) I am never put through; it simply tells me 'due to high call volumes we cannot connect you to an agent. Goodbye'.

Is there a way I can actually speak to someone to book this (perhaps even Email or Facebook Chat) or should I just give up?

The website seems to have become flakier over the past month or two for pulling data from my profile. My last 4-5 bookings I have had to manually enter CC details (but not other passenger details), and the last couple flights it is not pulling my passport data during check-in (though maybe this is a USA-bound intentional thing? I don't travel to the US a ton). Anyone else experiencing this?
