Are you sure? I just signing up for DL miles, and took screen shots to be careful. Looking back, it says:

Welcome, SkyMiles member!
Please continue your Netflix sign-up.
You will earn miles once you become a paying Netflix member. Please allow 8- 10 weeks from sign-up and qualification for miles to post to your SkyMiles account.

This is timely. Just the other day, I had gone online to sign-up for Netflix. However, I temporarily postponed the registration because I discovered that I first needed to order a replacement power adapter for family Wii game console. The Wii system is important because I plan to use the Netflix streaming video feature for movies, etc.

Thanks to this post, I can now subscribe to Netflix (which I was going to do no matter what) plus yield myself 2,500 miles.

What I said was specific to the AA promo, not Delta. The AA promo states that you cannot get the free trial period.

I see. Given that it's Netflix paying for the miles, I assumed their T&Cs would have been the same for all airlines.

Has anyone used the Delta Netflix offer and NOT gotten the free trial screen?

I have done it with multiple computers and Skymiles numbers and still get the trial screen every time. I noticed that Delta only has the old Netflix offer for 1500 miles on their website and not the new 2500 mile one. Maybe with the 2500 mile offer you have to do the trial and then start paying after the first month and then get the miles. I don't want to sign up for the trial and not be able to get the miles. I put the link to the 2500 offer below. It would be interesting to know if everyone is getting the trial screen or just me.

I kept getting the trial screen for Delta, too, on two different computers. But per the quote in#46, I'm encouraged that the miles will post after I qualify (first billing period). I went ahead and signed up with another CC and address.

The other nice thing is that I've never seen a free 30-day trial before; when I first signed up years ago it was for two weeks, and all of the offers out there in every which corner are two weeks.

Do free trials qualify? or only paid trials?

So I have to wait until 30 days(free trial) plus 1-2 weeks(paid memberships) for mileages to get posted?

Thanks

So no free trial offer and getting the miles as well. Miles for me posted very quickly, I think less than a week after I signed up.

I signed up for Delta 2500 offer and it showed me the trial screen but i was charged immediately. Its almost 3 weeks and miles didn't show up yet.

I used paypal to avoid CC identification.

For those wondering if you can get the netflix free and the miles, the answer is: YES (at least for Delta). They billed my card on Friday after a one month free trial, and the miles hit my account today.

There might be a decent AA offer on May 13th. www.aa.com/aadvantage30th. Otherwise, there is 2,500 AA miles via this link:https://aa.netflix.com/offer.jsp?src=nflxaaFBSE0111

I never received my United miles for the sign up promo. Should I email United or Netflix to resolve this?

The same thing happened to me. I would call Netflix CS first to see what's going on. They'll be able to tell you if you qualified in the first place and if they sent over all the info to the FF program you signed up under. When I called, they said everything looked fine on their end and they sent all the necessary info over to United. United said to call Netflix back and I did. Netflix opened up an inquiry and the matter was resolved in 2 days with the 4000 miles posting to my account 3 days later "as of" the date I actually signed up. My problem lasted 10 weeks since the T&C says that the miles may take something like 8-12 weeks to post. What I did so I didn't have to pay the monthly fee after the first month was put a hold on my account which can be as long as 3 months I think. Good luck.
