Two e-rewards accounts?
I joined e-rewards last year through IHG. Now AS have also invited me to join.
Is it possible to join with a different e-mail address, but using the same computer/smartphone?

None of that is necessary. I have been managing two accounts on one computer for years, one in my name, one in my spouse's name. Same street address, different email address.

For reference, I have an account, and my mother has an account. However all of the redemptions from both accounts go into my mileage/points accounts. No issue so far, but then again we have different IP addresses and computers.

While none of what I wrote is necessary yet it might be necessary in the future. You never know when they start to close holes and tighten their rules.

Unless they have stopped checking, they claimed that I had a duplicate account (my husband had one as well) using a different email address and wanted to cancel my "accounts."
I had to send them proof he was a different person with a different account.
Since I actually managed his account I made sure I never use the same computer to respond to emails.
This was a while ago, so things may have changed.

I have run with two accounts with the same personal details other than email for several years. I believe on was US Airways origin and the other Northwest that was converted to a generic post merger. It has been nearly a year since I've taken a survey as I find them a poor use of time for the reward.

If you use a VPN you can also sign up in different countries and take surveys in different places. The main problem ends up being the 30-day limit on redeeming to the same FF account.
