Does anyone know what the future of the points transfer option is with the UA/CO merger? Will we be able to transfer into the new mileage plus or will that option go away?

The Terms and Conditions said it is possible.
However I have not found anywhere on UR website under Manage Ultimate Reward that allows you to do that. The Combine Points would only show your existing cards that are in the UR program, such as Freedom and Sapphire, but no way to input other's card. Anybody has done the transfer between Spousal accounts before? EDIT: Never mind. Once you click Other - it pulls up the necessary boxes to fill in the information. It requires the number of credit card or debit card of the "Other". |

Do you think we have a crystal ball? We should all know around the first of the year or shortly thereafter. Palm reading, next room. :)

Nothing has been announced yet. We all hope that the new United will be a transfer partner - it makes sense but you never know.

I'm sorry...I was just asking because I don't have the card and was thinking of getting it, but didn't know if anything was announced to cardholders.

Can't imagine that they won't switch it to UA. It would leave them with no USA airline partners.
I got the card this week, and the "activation dude" led me to believe it would be available (I know, that means nothing). Also, he kept asking me "are you ready to 'chase' what's important to you?", and I kept cracking up in his ear. |

Can I get my friend to transfer his points over to me too? It was mentioned somewhere here that its only allowed to a spouse! Can I not just input any credit card number?
Why dont you try online and see what happens, then report back here? Since most folks do not have friends willing to give up their points but you do, so you could do the experiment and benefit the community with the knowledge you would gain via actual experiment. |

Amex Membership Rewards anounced several months ago that the transfer option to CO was ending Sept 30 due to the merger. I guess Amex has a much better crystal ball than Chase :)

This was *exactly* the question asked. Amex made it quite clear long ago what was going to happen with them. Chase has told us squat.

No, the question was whether or not we will be able to xfer to UA come 1/1.
