If you think the NY Times is hard left, you're far beyond mere fiscal conservative.

. . . and that does give a good response to make when they ask why you are cancelling.

^Thanks. Was wondering what I'd say if they asked why I'm canceling. And as a bonus, it's the truth! I could barely stomach giving those ultra-left hacks .99 cents in the first place.

NYTimes has no record of my account yet I've been billed and AA shopping portal is showing the miles. Something just isn't adding up.

Wow, hard left? Me thinks you don't get out too often.

My UA miles posted quickly and I canceled today. Still waiting on AA and nothing has shown up on my AA shopping account, though I was billed.

I emailed UA about the miles not hitting yet and they told me they see the 1400 miles in my account. They show it hit the same day I signed up in the non flight activity, but I still don't see it so I am guessing I will have to wait for my statement to close to see them

My 1400 UA miles posted, and 1500 AA miles are pending in the shopping mall account. ^

Self-censoring on comments above about NYT being "hard left" and even more ridiculously, WP being "soft left". So, let me guess, WSJ is "center"?

Could you give a reference of when you signed up and if you ever saw them pending in the shopping portal?
