3500 Skymiles for Sharebuilder / ING account
I'm trying to get the Delta bonus of 3500 miles with opening a Sharebuilder / ING account.
http://content.sharebuilder.com/mgdc...7/?cobrand=www Rick at Frugal Travel Guy posted about making a $1 trade that costs a $4 commission. Anyone have an idea how to do this? http://frugaltravelguy.blogspot.com/...q=sharebuilder |
yes, this is actually a very easy way to get some Delta miles. Both myself and Mrs. PedroNY already did this recently. Make sure you chose "Medalion Member" when you register you will get 3,500 miles (I really do not believe their system double checks that) instead of 2,000 miles.
You will need to open up an idividual account, chose the cheapest (free) option. You will need to link a checking account (of any kind based in U.S.), that takes about 1-2 business days. Then you should transfer $5 from it to your Sharebuilder account. Then you should go and chose "automatic" plan under trading. You can buy $1 of any share listed on U.S. stockexchanges, the commission will be $4. You will want to chose "one-time" instead of reoccuring. You can chose the next closest Tuesday of when you want to make this transaction (Tuesday is the only day of the week allowed under this plan). After the Tuesday passes, you will be a proud owner of $1 in a share of your choice (with 400% commission charge, $4), and you will get Delta miles credited there after. The whole process from start to finish is about 2-3 weeks, miles post pretty quick. You get 3,500 miles for $5, not too bad. I hope this helps. Best, PedroNY |
FYI, I got sharebuilder miles on US Airways w/ out funding an acct. YMMV

Anybody get the bonus miles with different airlines/programs at the same time?
For example, if I recently got bonus emiles.com miles for opening an account with Sharebuilder, will I also be able to do it with Delta and US Airways? |

I did this a few weeks ago and got the 3500 miles within days.

I'm trying to set up an account and when I use the link through this thread or through Delta, I receive a error message that the code doesn't function with Delta...do I need to phone it in?
|
I already have a Sharebuilder account that I opened years ago. Does anyone know if I can open a second account and get the miles?

when I used the link above or even going through the delta web site, it generated a promotion code : 50WCFA, but then I couldn't submit as it responded with
"The promotion code you entered is not intended for us on the delta sharebuilder site" anyone know why? thanks |

You may want to buy DL's stock and be a proud owner of Delta since it awards you the 3,500 miles. |
