If you don't get email from Aeroplan, then YMMV.
Thanks to you, jerry305, for the heads up about that. I answered the quiz a second time, after I found the same offer buried in my Fall Newsletter, and the 1000 points posted with yesterday's date of Jan 13, 2017.

I had also answered it for 6 other Aeroplan accounts that I am custodian to. None of them were targeted with the same email, so none of them got the 1000 points.

Except one, which had 1000 miles posted on Oct 31st with activity description of "EARNING PROMO MILES". Not sure what that was for. The account has been nearly dormant for 3 years, and the only way I keep activity on it is with Esso fillups or answering surveys.

No problem.
As of January 16, 2017: the Aeroplan 1000 point "myth" promotion appears to no longer be active.



I also suggest earning 250 Aeroplan miles for telling a story.

It'll extend your dormant account again.

Does anyone know what the billing cycle is for the Chase Marriott Visa? And also, how soon are the points added after the first statement?

Thanks!

(TARGETTED)

As pointed out at rewardscanada.ca
when you log in to your Aeroplan account, look for a banner to get 500 miles for adding your email address to your profile.

Is the general consensus that you still can't hold more than 1 Alaska card at a time? I do have a card app coming up soon as all AS cards we cancelled a few months back.

Yes this was a change implemented a while back.

So does everyone know that Cathay Pacific has joined Aeroplan as an airline partner?
