I’m still surprised you all subscribe to such bad offers. I won’t go near those rates. Trouble is, the more people are happy to use them the less likely it is that they will offer decent mileage ratios. Each to his own, I suppose. Having said that, I have made use of the Swiss COOP Trophy shopping stamp collecting promotion, which is a bad rate too TBH. But I’m cutting right back from now on.

I think The Economist is one of the best periodicals that exist in the English language (is it a newspaper or a magazine?). As for the COOP Superpoints promotion, I can’t sign into my account from here in Dubai. I just get a Page Not Found message, or something similar from Microsoft in the 1990s (although Apple has become exactly the same now). And the app is a disaster zone (neither COOP, the M&M or Payback apps work any more).
EDIT I’ve tried different devices, phones and browsers, and I get the Page Not Found message every time. Maybe our Superpoints accounts are protected against signing in from far off countries (works ok in Germany). Probably need a VPN.

Hi Concerto,
Nothing extraordinary, but still a bit better than the 17.45/1000 miles rates from the the trophy stamp, coop has right now a points to miles conversion promotion at basically 15.-/1000 miles (it's currently being discussed in the VFT).

I stayed in seven (7) Hilton properties during the promotion and received 2,500 miles each time.

Stayed 5 times with Hilton, received 4 packages of 2500 miles... but not one in the middle... what do you think I should do? Thinking of waiting out 8 weeks (T&C), and then writing to HH...

I'm currently enjoying the 1500 mile bonus on Avis rentals of 3 or more days... 2000 miles for a 36€ rental!

I’ve made at least 20 qualifying Blacklane bookings during the 10 Miles per €£$ promotion.. some have started to credit with the bonus miles. Others haven’t. I can tell this is going to be a hot mess.

A new Hertz promotion - even better return than the one with the M&M 25 years promotion - I cancelled the bookings I already had and made new ones with more miles + a lower cost. Win-win!

A rental so cheap? You must be renting in Bongoland! But Germany pretty much is Bongoland with all the bankruptcies and other nonsense going on there.

For those in Switzerland, this seems to be a really good deal, if you don’t already have the Swiss M&M cards (like me!). 25,000 miles for the gold credit card pair:

I got this by email today:
This year, see more of the world with The Economist
Earn up to 18,000 miles when you subscribe by 31 October 2018.
Clicking on the link doesn’t tell me anything about the promo, there is nothing on the M&M site and my google-fu has failed to turn up anything.
Anyone know how this works and what the ‘up to 18,000 miles’ means?

9k miles for $180 (as I recall) would give you 2.1 US cents/mile - just saw it last night...
Link to India website gives you *no miles*
(Had to do the US site link using a VPN with a US IP - but 2.1c/mile is not that spectacular...)

I found this on the US Economist link from the M&M site. That means you have to purchase approx $450.00 for a print+digital subscription.
