How does one complain these days?

I seem to be getting nowhere with whatever remains of the AAdvantage Service Center via phone or e-mail. I've tried using the online customer relations form, but it refuses to accept a submission, giving me the error message that State is a missing field (even though, as I live outside of the US, it is not an actual field on the contact form). Is there an e-mail address for customer relations (generic or for Executive Platinum members)? Has anybody tried to contact Vasu Raja directly and received any response?

Who the hell is Vasu? Twitter is a good feedback tool for me. Forget the phone, hour delays doesn't work for me.

What put you over the edge? The turkey sandwich?

1. Chief Commercial Officer, with responsibility for AAdvantage.

2. Them still not having renewed my status, two months after I qualified.

Just go over to one of the AA Facebook groups. Tons of complaining there.

Thanks, but I'd rather requalify with another airline from scratch than join Facebook.

I'm a bit confused here. When the OP says "renewed my status" what level? Typically once you hit whatever threshold (and granted with all the boost promotions it's a bit confusing) your status/status level should change immediately and you would receive any benefits tagged to that status level. There's no manual intervention unless you're missing credit for activity.

I hit the level stipulated by the promotion I had received, and nothing happened. The one time I managed to get through on the phone, the AAdvantage agent and her supervisor both acknowledged that I had, but were unable to explain why it had not been actioned and to action it manually.

Yes, thank you. Maybe I should be more specific, I'm not looking to let out steam, I need AA to solve a specific problem.

If you have no results from other channels, I would try that specific email address once more.
