Uber
Hey there,
apologies if this has been discussed in some other thread (couldn't find), but has anyone been successful in getting the points from Uber rides. I linked the accounts, but no points have been credited, and the Uber helpdesk is completely clueless when asking for help.
Thanks.

Yes over here: Flying Blue & UBER partnership.
I have linked it myself, and FB miles are posted almost immediately after the ride has completed for me (NL living in NL). Are you doing elligible rides? Must be in NL or FR (and in FR must be one of the types mentioned on https://www.uber.com/fr/en/u/flying-blue/)

Is it really necessary to start the booking from the FB website? The link just opens the Uber app, so why add this additional step?
Edit: the confirmation email states that one will earn in France and the Netherlands.Nothing about the other countries mentioned by @Lumimies

I should have looked into this a lot earlier. I thought it was only applicable in NL and FR.

3. Miles earning scheme and procedures. Following the completion of the steps described in Section 2.1. and 2.2. you can earn Miles with Flying Blue when riding rewarded Uber products. Upon completing eligible trips with Uber, the Flying Blue Miles will be credited to your Flying Blue account as per the following form: 1 Flying Blue Mile per euro spent on Uber Black or Berline, Comfort, Van, and X Priority excluding Uber Taxi and Uber X journeys in the following countries: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Finland, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom. To be eligible to earn Miles, you must book your qualifying ride exclusively on the Flying Blue website, or the Air France and KLM apps and websites via the book a ride link.
Or maybe the FB account has to be registered in one of those countries to be able to earn miles for rides in France and the Netherlands? I don't know, gets too complicated for me.

Thanks, the confirmation email states only France and Netherlands, but I am still confused as the T&C state that:
