Orphan points
 

My marriott account is set to earn AA miles, and, to the best of my recollection, it alwasy has been. I know I've never had any partners post points into it.

When I check my account online, I see a balance of 1,790 points. I don't know where from, but they're probably several years old. I recall once getting 500 points from a hotel manager as an apology for a mishap.

Anyway, since any stays earn miles, I don't see how this total will ever grow, but it's too small to get an award to transfer to miles.

Is there any way to rescue these orphan points?

I am tranfering Mypoints to Marriott to get to a redeemable award level to rescue my 4800 points.

What's the conversion rate since you will need at least 10,000 points to redeem an award ?

1500 MyPoints = 1000 Marriott points

If you can get the mypoints conversion. I have been waiting since Jan. 17 with numerous emails and phone calls.

I know this belongs in SPAM but how long does it take to accumulate 1500 my points

I have accumulated over 2000 points since March. I could have had another 1000 if a vacation had not kept me from responding to a special survey on time. I believe there was a sign-up bonus, so it may take longer in the future.

The best thing in my opinion is that you can earn 5 to 20 points a day routinely just for reading e-mails and visiting web-sites, no money involved.

Need 6,500 Marriott Points to get to 10,000

That would be ~ 9,750 MyPoints at 20/day they should be rescued by August 26, 2003

At that time I'll have 2000 Airmiles.
