400 less miles?

Very simple - I started this thread as not everyone who reads the MilesBuzz thread reads the United thread.

I had never heard of BCKSTGR or about their previous promo - so thought it would help out others if this were made known on this section of FT.

I linked facebook and twitter but bonus miles did not get posted instantly as OP said. What did I do wrong?

I'm a member but there's no places to use it around here

Did this today exactly as explained in this thread.

600 miles posted instantly.

Thanks to the OP.

Thanks OP! My 600 miles showed up instantly as well. ^

yeah, what's up with that?

Just what does BCKTGR do? They track your info?

I have this company that tracks my info on my cell phone and I get $5 a month for letting them do it. But 1K free miles for literally doing nothing is fine with me.

But perhaps I'll change my pin. Heh heh.

Tried to cancel my account last month after the point posted. There is no way to close an account. Emailed them but they did not do anything.

Is anyone else having issues linking their FB/Twitter/4square events to their account?

When I click on Link Now, it keeps scrolling and doesn't take me to any page to link.

Offer still seems to be on - just did it as I am 300 miles short for something I need, but nothing posted instantly it seems. Hope it shows soon!

7/31/14--Last day to earn FREE United MileagePlus miles from BCKSTGR
 

There's a service that's been around for about a year or 2 called BCKSTGR. If you sign up for various newsletters [many of which are pretty darned cool] and other services, they give free United MileagePlus miles--- and the miles post quickly--- usually within 24 hours. However they announced that today July 31, 2014 is the last day they're giving free MileagePlus miles.

You won't get enough miles for a free one-way ticket, but a few hundred free miles are always nice.

You can subscribe to whatever is of interest and after the miles post unsubscribe: http://bckstgr.com

I'm signed in to the site, but I'm not seeing where you sign up for newsletters. Where is it?

OK, I just signed up for a few newsletters. I hope the miles post. It's still 7/31/14, even on the East Coast.

Never got any of my miles for this when I did it on 7/31

I did get 300 miles for "Opinion Miles Club" that I did long after BCKSTGR

600+ United miles for joining BCKSTGR
 

Did not see it posted here, I have the email somewhere but BCKSTGR is no longer offering UA miles anymore, probably closing up shop. Did not seem to keep many people interested- I think I only visited the site once or twice, probably the same situation as a lot of people
