Is their online application ever going to work? I have been getting this message for the past 8 months, "Please correct the errors noted below

Unfortunately, we have encountered system issues and cannot process your application at this time. Please try again in a few hours or visit any TD Canada Trust branch. We apologize for the inconvenience.
Find the nearest Canada Trust Branch Branch Locator Link"

Of course the branch has no idea that this promotion exists.

Odd, my branch in Vancouver was fully aware of the promotion and checked if I was signed up for it when I picked up the card...

They had the same promotion in the branch with FYF and 25,000 miles after $1000 spend? Can you tell me which branch it was and who you dealt with?

This was at the North Road branch in Burnaby/Coquitlam. Don't remember the teller's name, sadly, but I specifically asked her to check my promo code when I picked up the card and she verified the presence for me, so clearly they're aware of it.

Why not just show them the link of the offer that is on their website? Save the link on your smartphone. Doesn't mention anywhere that the offer is only for those who sign up online. Then they can call their manager or whatever to confirm.

Because some people can't get past the initial online application phase, and need to go in branch to kick the financial specialist into seeing the FYF and 25K promo?

Or they get past the online application phase fine, and then application goes into a black hole...either never received, or received and declined (for whatever their bogus reason of the day is) with no response...

On a side note, if bonuses are lifetime now, what's the next best way to accumulate points for a Singapore air F award ticket?
I got the referral bonus instantly (or maybe within 3 days) after I referred myself. Just hit the spending requirement within 1 week after received the card and waiting for the bonus point posted.

Then those people should call TD CC to finish the application and provide the correct source code (RFD or GCR)

You should see it soon if you applied ONLINE via GCR and got approved
If not, submit a missing rebate with GCR (name, address) and they'll follow up

That's what I had to do - Call TD to complete application, submit inquiry with GCR and call TD to fix my Aeroplan #, get my $50 GCR cashback.... took 3 months

looks like my post was deleted sorry for crossing any lines regarding trading/buying miles.

Can anyone point me in the direction of a place where i can discuss the above?

I have until Nov to accumulate 56k marriott pts and normal spend will not get me there.

Thanks
