Greenpoints site down

Anyone know? Down as in a temporary outage, or down as in the business plan did not work?

I called and they said the site is undergoing 'enhancements and changes' and will be back up sometime today.

I hope that downtime also means they are adding a survey or two!!!

Some more points for another airline certificate!

I'm with you Catman! Got my 1,000 Delta miles and got my wife 500 before they wiped out the surveys. Still need a few more for my little lady's next 500 mile certificate.

A word of advice to the unscrupulous: Don't submit 10 email addresses for the same person! After two months, zero certificates have been received by such a person. (No names mentioned...hehe)

Biff, a guy I know was successful with 5 e-mail addresses. Hes got 5000(10x500)miles so far all from the surveys. Do log-on and see if the certs are pending check the upper left hand side of the screen after logging in. He also told me that after each time he logs in he logs off b4 checking another acct.
Could be the early ones got it set up and now it cant be done.But I saw his certs to know it worked now hes waiting for AA to post it. Good Luck

What is the GreenPoints Item Number for the certs? I checked their catalog, but it all seemed like just a bunch of crap, no miles.

Yes, I agreed greenpoints is a whole bunch of crap after the site is down for a whole day. They just doubled the points required for a 500-mile cert

AA ceritficates are now 5000 GreenPoints instead of 2500?

I suggest we launch a massive e-mail campaign to let them know we are heading straight to Click Rewards...period.

I have a number of GreenPoints sitting in my account, solely for getting AA certificates---now my stock has just split---the wrong way!

GreenPoints can kiss my business goodbye!

Agreed, let's email them. Some kind of notice would've been nice. Click Rewards will always have my business. What a class act. I can't imagine them doubling the points needed without some kind of notice. Greenpoints is not playing fair.
