Do you have a link? Does it come with access to wsj.com?

Have you received your WSJ subscription?

Wsj
 
An alternate method of getting the WSJ is by using E-Rewards $.
I have done it twice using 40 E Reward Dollars for 36 weeks, that did not cost me anything other that responding to E Rewards Surveys.
I have also used airline points.
The last E Rewards subs started 8 days after I submitted it.

This was the link: http://xp3.mybonuscenter.com/pxp/hug...402/portal.htm

But it's gone. Strange.

FWIW, access to wsj.com was not included. Ink on hands only.


EDIT: earlier post had this link http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/showp...&postcount=112 but it required significantly more miles. Maybe it's still worth it to you.

My account was deducted as follows:

Apr 07, 2008 JUNE/JULY MAGAZINE MAILING (3,300) 0 0 (3,300)


I will report back when my subscription has started.

The link just worked for me now. But, it's for UA miles only. Does mybonuscenter have offers for other FF programs? Going to their home page didn't show me any offers using miles.

Huh? I click on that link and it brings up subscription offers (pretty limited listed, doesn't include WSJ) for US, not UA.

You are right; I misspoke (mistyped?) At any rate, the link is live, but doesn't seem to be what people here were looking for, and it doesn't seem to link back to a page with other offers.

Has your subscription started?

I'm not finding the Wall Street Journal available for Delta, American or United miles. I remember it used to be there, wonder if it is temporary or if they no longer participate.

Right, WSJ no longer for UA or US miles, and only a paltry number of magazine titles available through US at this time. So, I wonder how many (or few) opportunities remain to use anyone's miles for subscriptions. Anybody have current info on subscription opportunites using miles from different carriers?

Has any one had any luck getting the WSJ and UA miles? I think some people have tried and even miles were deducted but have not heard back if the subscription was actually started.

Please let us know.

Thanks

The Wall Street Journal appears magically again...

I just subscribed and thought I'd share a little math I did in case anyone is interested.

On the webpage it shows a value of $343 for the subscription, which is more than 10 CPM and I was quite excited. I then looked up the price of subscription at wsj.com. It's something like $59 for 28 weeks or $99 for 58 weeks. I then worked out a value of $74.71 for the 39 weeks subscription, or 2.264 CPM.

Since I like the WSJ and was able to get it without money out of pocket, I subscribed :)
