5,000 AAdvantage for $19
 
On aa shopping portal motley fool has 5k for $19 monthly subscription, takes about a week to post then call them to cancel

josephstern Jun 20, 2018 4:33 pm

"Subscription must be active for at least 45 days"

sdsearch Jun 20, 2018 6:06 pm

Which means is 5000 for $38, not $19, right?

josephstern Jun 20, 2018 6:37 pm

Weird. My post just disappeared.

I don't see a monthly option here. Are cancellations pro-rated?

nope, like I said you get the miles in about a week offer signing up for the $19 monthly rate, done 3 different accts

CPRich Jun 20, 2018 10:06 pm

Have you actually received the points, cancelled the account before being charged for 45 days (2 months, perhaps) and had the points remain in your account for an extended period of time?

If you agree to receive 5K points in exchange for at least 45 days of service, it's easy to either charge the credit card you use for 2 months or pull the points from your account. Just receiving the miles isn't an irreversible outcome, IMHO.

I don't see the monthly option either, just a yearly option...?

gordonlee33 Jul 8, 2018 10:50 pm

Still not too bad of a deal. Thanks OP.

Tazlon Jul 24, 2018 1:25 pm

Bonus is up to 7400 miles now. I just signed up for the $19/month plan.

Shows 5000 for me.

Surgee Jul 25, 2018 6:08 am

Shows 5000 for me too. If its really only $19, the 3600 AS miles and 2600 UA miles through their respective portals are pretty good too..

I only see 5000 miles, not 7400 miles. I also don't see the $19 option. Would you mind linking me? Thanks!

Tazlon Jul 25, 2018 3:41 pm

The deal went back down to 5000 from yesterday's 7400 miles. You can still get the $19 option by clicking on offer titled "Stock Advisor: Join now for only $19 a month or $99 a year!".

If it's $99/yr required for 5k points, those points can just be purchased at one of the many 'sales" for approx 2 cents/mile, which is $100 for 5k.
It's slightly less than 2 cents usually, with the "bonus", which is a frequent offer, although the exact terms vary, but there's no need to "do it now".

You don't have to pay $99. It's $19 for one month. I did it, got the points, cancelled before the 2nd month was billed.

kmzandrew Jul 30, 2018 3:55 pm

I just picked up the $19 membership (had the 7400 mile offer). Will see how it goes.

How long did it take for the AA miles to hit your account and how do you cancel? Can you cancel via email as I'm in the UK.

It various but usually 7 -14 days and you have to call to cance within 30 daysl, but very easy and quick to cancel, no trying to keep you signed up
under your shopping acct, you can see activity after a few days to show you earned your miles and then 5-10 days it should post to your ff acct.

Thanks Yuel, I clicked on the help section and then contact us and it had a drop down menu for e-mailing them titled cancellation or issues with account. I'm hoping I can cancel via email as I live in the UK and US call rates may be expensive unless I can free Skype them?

I am only seeing the Annual plans at this time. Is there a trick to getting the monthly?

The same here, when I used one tablet to sign up I only saw the annual fee, I was thinking they billed you monthly and the total was split into monthly payments.
I have just logged in on another tablet and now I can see the two options, I've just emailed them to check and put me on the monthly only option.

Try going back to main page of the promo and hit shop offer on the left,

https://www.fool.com/order/fe_offers...cc5f1&cellId=1

thanks to the poster - great promo! We used it twice...

rc408 Aug 6, 2018 8:50 am

Thank you, that worked for me.

Bigshaker Aug 6, 2018 9:45 am

It says on the order page you can cancel your subscribtion by contacting member support at
[email protected] which seems way easier than calling.

Great Promo thanks OP.

Be cautious with the tc’s though as they clearly say the account must be open 45 days to ge the bonus miles.
I know others have reported no problem canceling and the points are still in their accounts but I’ve seen point redeposits on other times I’ve returned take 3-4 weeks and then they get taken out.

My points have already been credited to my account in two days, faster than getting a reply from emailing CS.

is it not only bookable at AA? (sorry kind of a newby and still finding my way around :) )

You can use any one of the programs to sign up. Choose which you want to earn miles in because you can only do it one time (AFAIK).

mhdena Aug 10, 2018 9:56 am

Where are you seeing miles mentioned? Do you have to go all the way to checkout to select what miles?

You shop thru the aadvantageeshopping portal. Then click on the $19/month offer on the motley fool's site. Miles posted within a week, but I'm planning to wait the 45 days required in T&Cs to avoid any chance of reversal.

Thanks I found it, also saw a similar offer on SW for 5400 miles. Can this be used wherever you see it?

largeeyes Aug 13, 2018 1:45 am

My account shows the store visits on August 1, but no transactions....seems...odd.

tangey Aug 13, 2018 5:44 am

For those that have the fool transaction tracking, how long was it between doing the purchase and it showing as a transaction on the aa shopping portal (as opposed to just a visit) ?

Same issue on my end; albeit, I made the transaction on August 7th, but nothing has posted yet, with the exception of the store visits.

Same here again. My visit and purchase was August 5th. Is this no longer tracking, in which case can we get a refund?

Bigshaker Aug 14, 2018 9:28 am

Same problem here. 3 separate orders, 3 separate people and accounts.
All made on Aug 5th. I made sure to close and log out and in for each person and close Motely fool browser window each time.
1account (the first one I purchased with) had miles post in 3days with email confirmation you’ve earned miles and it showed as a transaction right away not just as a site visit.
Other 2 accounts only show I visited the page from AA shopping portal., no transaction. I sent inquiry email with order numbers and haven’t received any reply in a week. How do we get hold of the AA shopping site folks other than the email inquiry links that they don’t reply to?

My purchase was 8/6 and I received a confirmation from AAdvantage eShopping the same day. The points posted to my account yesterday 8/13 or today 8/14 with a date of 8/6/18.

I did it for AA and SWA. SW posted 2 days after sign up, AA hasn't posted yet.

They responded to me too, asking: "In order for me to proceed with your inquiry, please provide me with the order number and e-receipt from your purchase so I can further investigate."

However, did any of you ever get an order number and an e-receipt? I never got one. I e-mailed Motley, but they haven't responded to me yet.
