Goldpoints account under investigation???
I got around 4million goldpoints and when I called in the person put me on hold then told me the account was under investigation because I had so many points. Anyone else encounter this problem? How was it resolved? Also, how long does it take for United, AA, Northwest miles to show up? AC seems to be 3-4 days...

Hickory farms has 40% off so I bought stuff there but points are original cost. No point in getting mags I don't use... At least I can buy lobster tails, steaks, etc. At 40% off, it's almost worth the price so the points are free as I see it.

It is not our business how he got 4 Mio. Goldpoints. However, I would have transfered some GP before, and see if and how it works. Actually I transfer any points as soon as I can - who knows how long Goldpoints, Greenpoints and others exist.
To answer one question: I transfered GP to American Airlines miles and it took only a couple of days.

Cactuspete,
well, fraudulant or not, this "smart" guy/girl has "out-smarted" him/her-self.
The Goldpoints are now sitting on his/her account .. maybe forever.
BTW, I never found out what was so great with Goldpoints. I just got a few Goldpoints while staying at Radisson (and transefered them ASAP).
I personally believe Goldpoints, Greenpoints, What-ever-Points ... will be gone soon.
