Wow, that is a terrific amount of miles in such a short period. I've only got 8501 miles since I've joined, and it seems like it's taken me foreover to get that. (And no, I have no idea where the "1" came from; but that's what my account says.) I will have to fill out my profile and see what happens. tls

I'm getting fed up with the bait and switch. I get an email that says "earn 60 miles for 5 minutes". I click on it and fill out about 8 random questions, then they load a survey that says "earn 60 miles for 20-30 minutes".

Same here. I'm slowly doing e-Rewards ones until I get enough to transfer out and then I'll probably stop doing those too.

I guess they do it because sufficient users are dumb enough to fall for it. If everyone just did the better ones that are advertised and ignored the 60 miles for 20+ mins ones, they might stop doing that.

Second time this has happened to me: there's a credit card survey and they load six logos of banks and I have to pick the ones I've heard of. Unfortunately, there's no where to click, I can't go forward because it asks me to select one or more but there are no buttons to click so I just give up on the survey

Ran into this problem with the Avios one, too. Sadly, I was pretty far into it.

I was more than half way through mine and no next button. Very frustrating.

Same thing happened to me. I refrehsed a # of times, tried to hit the back button. I was about 90% done with it.

I did email them but this time no response. They are usually good about answering back. Guess they don't have a good answer either.

When they do the bait and switch, I move on. If no one takes the bait, they will have to shape up. It is unfortunate that unlike eRewards, if you don't qualify for a survey, you don't get any credit.

Thanks for the post. I enrolled, invested about 20 minutes and got 600 miles posted almost immediately in my account. Easy peasy!

Have you completed a survey? From what I remember you must complete one I order for the miles to post.

Miles from this program post almost immediately to your account.
