yes

Probably. I never wanted to bother with it, but it's likely a good idea.

This is a sweet offer but I will wait for the next GRAND SLAM

Do you need to enter a promo code when signing up, or is it just clicking and signing through that link?

While there is no rush to get into this game, I doubt that there will be a grand slam knowing that they expect to close their us airways/american airlines merger in the 3rd quarter this year.

No promo code needed. You may be able to double dip with another promotion as a previous poster mentioned.

Thanks samdori! I wish I would've known about this earlier; I recently signed up for a Vinesse Wines promo for Delta 3K miles to meet a threshold miles. But still, this is great as I signed up for this gem. Wow, what a deal!

Thoughts on getting both US and UA miles? Not sure if the T&Cs mean one mileage bonus per airline per person or simply per person.

Hope this works. 3,500 miles is exactly what I need to get me very close to 120,000 Delta miles.

Signed up and bought a pile of a penny stock (5,000 shares of IMDS). I signed up with the $50 promo so I just paid the $6.95 for the single trade rather than signing up for the automatic trading. I figure I'll hold on to the account (and my penny stock) until the $50 posts. If I'm lucky that stock will shoot up to $10 (from its current .0002) and I'll make more than 2,000 miles worth . Either way, worth it for the miles - and if the $50 posts I can't lose.

Thanks for posting!

Perhaps the most high yield combo is to sign up for the miles with a new account, then transfer $500 from another account using TRADEUP100, which will net you a $100 bonus.

$100 and 2k miles for parking 500 bucks in the account isnt too shabby.

That's a good idea...where does the $500 have to come from? Just any external account?

You opened/ closed account at what frequency ? once every month ?

It seems from the T&Cs in order to get the $50 you need to leave the account open for 120 days, which incur a $12 month fee, netting $2.

I know I am missing something, but what is it?

Couldn't you choose the basic account which has no monthly fee?
