I thought the 1000 booking bonus was something everyone got?

I've lost track of what promotions I've signed up for...

I also just noticed five of the cap systems magazine offer for a total of -5000 pts. Does anyone know what this is?

I've got three of them. Hopefully it's just one of these periodic weekend snafus.

I just got one of the same -1000 posted also for the CAP SYSTEMS MAGAZINE OFFER. Thought of checking here first before calling PC Customer Service. Must be one of the many promotions...did a quick search for CAP SYSTEMS and this is what I came up with.

Hi
Well I 8 of the -1000 pts like above. These points were earned with proper bookings on-line as per the T&C. Not happy at all with this but will have to wait and see if it clears or if a call to PC is required.

It has bascially taken away the 8 bonus 1ks that it gave me yesterday. Lets see how many others get this

regards

Looking at the links posted by Savage25 above, looks like anyone who lost points had been unilaterally "given the chance to redeem" their points for a "magazine subscription."
Cap Systems

In 1995, we formed CAP Systems to develop affinity marketing programs for frequent flyer and similar customer reward programs. Members are given the chance to redeem frequent flyer miles for traditional print and electronic magazine subscriptions through direct mail efforts.
