My PCR Mall purchase from Dr Fosters and Smith (pet supplies) had a tracking date of 6 Oct in the customer service option and sure enough, it posted sometime within the last 24 hours. So my account is now assured of 4 partners:
1. Points.com transfer
2. Purchase points
3. E-Rewards
4. PCR Mall
My husband's account
1. Points.com transfer
2. Purchase points
3. PCR Mall Zazzle (they ship overseas) tracking for 17 Oct
4. Office Max direct link, purchased 24 Aug but didn't post. I am emailing their customer service (not the PCR one, Office Max directly).

Check carefully if using multiple accounts
I had ordered Resteraunt.com certs on 3 accounts (self, wife, son) and have discovered that the points for all 3 are pending on my account. It seems that the cookies trump the member # that you actually enter.

Mike,
I just received a definitive form e-mail from Priority Club Rewards listing the rules of the promotion and eligible activities, then stating:
"On the other hand, the following are not considered a unique partner activity: Points redeemed from MyCokeRewards...."
My guess is that after considering the issue, PCR has reached the official position that MCR is not part of the promotion, which is reasonable since it was not listed as an eligible partner in the first place. It is regrettable that some PCR people put out information to the contrary. I'm certainly not counting on Coke as a partner.

I got a similar response from PCR regarding MCR. In addition, they also states：
"This offer is exclusive to original recipients only and registration must be done online through the link on the e-mail."
Well, it wouldn't hurt to pile up four cheap activities and hope for the best.

If MCR do not count I need one more partner. I don't need to send flowers but I will if I have to....has anyone subscribed to Global Traveler and if so do you think it's worth $35 plus 3500 points??

Never hurts to go for another fall-back activity, just in case, depending upon the cost of doing so, of course.

I came very late to this promotion, and am confused about one issue: in similar promotions for frequent flyer miles, the order date from the shopping mall is the date your order is shipped, even though the miles may not post until much later. But for this promotion, it doesn't matter when your order, as the "order date" is the date Priority Club shopping post the points. So even though the promo isn't over until Oct 31, my order from Nordstrom on Oct 2 which has an order date of Nov 17 won't count anyway?

I would contact PC and ask them this very question highlighting the fact that you purchased withitn the time frame but you see that your points are to post outside of that and to ask them what's up with that?
Let us know their answer. At least unlike other programs, they do appear to rapidly answer e-mail inquiries.

Good customer service from Office Max! I emailed them about my husband's missing points and they credited them manually! So just one more to go-the Zazzle which is already tracking for 17 Oct.
Mareh, the PCR purchases I made for my account and my husband's were done around 26 Aug when the promo was first announced. My Dr Foster and Smith one posted to my account with the date on the tracking 7 Oct. No mention was made of the actual purchase date, they use the date it is keyed into the system.

Thanks for the information. I probably wasted time and a (very) small amount of money making purchases for my husband and me last Saturday, but I've emailed customer service to ask about it. I made two purchases each just in case it would help, but they're all tracking for Nov 17.
