Anyone know how to get through to an Agent and say that I didn't request the order to be cancelled?
Call 1-800-521-1841 from 8am to 5pm EDT. I was told by a very friendly agent that they can re-instate any order after they verified it's not a stolen credit card.

Does anyone know what ever happened with that company that sold framed stock certificates, I remember if you bought one of those for $120 or so you would get 50000 miles. I would say the outcome of that would be indicative of how this would end up.

Exactly.

IF this works I will reach Lifetime Platinum. Of course the cruel irony would be if AA changes the program rules for lifetime status the day before these miles hit.

Why do I have a feeling there is some Verizon Exec, after a long meeting with Verizon's legal team to make sure they are covered, sitting in front of a computer with a big grin on his face just watching sales go through the roof on stuff that hasn't sold in months.
I know, I am in for 2 headsets and 2 chargers; should I go for about 10 glitter thingy's? the link is still working!

I assume it ended poorly?

Of course people probably scoffed at Mr Pickles and the Pudding Guy!

(Fixed a silly error)

Yeah if I only get my two million miles for $50 in phone chargers but they deny me status I'm going to be SO pissed.

Mr Pickles did a coin run; or should I say several truckloads of coins runs.

The Pudding Guy did the original run that sparked us all.
Both are legends and I had the fortune to meet them last year in Chicago.

If you buy the glitter protectors and the miles don't hit you will be annoyed, but get over it eventually.
BUT
If you don't buy them and everyone else is reveling in oodles of miles you will regret your decision for the rest of your life.

Okay, how long after the order placed should I expect an email confirm? 4 orders, no emails yet - about 20 min now...

What the hell...took the plunge. 12 Screen Covers, 4 separate orders. Screenshots of each step.

What was odd was when I refreshed the AAShopping page, I was logged out...I am worried these did not get purchased through AAShopping.

Oh believe me I extracted a good amount of trips to NY and LAS, that was a good deal. What the hell lets give it a shot, LT PT here I come
If Verizon actually honored this, I would probably short verizon stock. They will owe AMR a S--t ton of money.

Good night everybody, we will probably see what happens in the morning.
