I can't get to the bank branch again till Friday, but hasn't anyone else successfully argued for the right miles when the banker messed up?

I have already done both the 5 debit transactions and direct deposit, so holding my breath that this can be fixed.

Way too early to start the fighting for the miles. Look at the time frame for the other poster on this thread.

Is this correct? Does it really take anywhere from 6-10 weeks to get the miles made from purchases into your OnePass account or is it similar to the bonus miles where the miles are deposited much quicker?

Thanks!

I went to my local branch here in LA and had no problem opening both accounts. There was a slight problem getting my Onepass # entered for the biz account. She made a call to their dept that handles these promotions and was able to get it resolved. I got the confirmation pages showing the miles to be deposited. While setting up the accounts, her system showed I was preapproved for a Chase Continental credit card with 25K bonus. I said sure and it was instantly approved. Took about an hour, but I left with $75K Onepass miles (OK – once I make the actual purchases).

My thought is that since this offer was setup in July (says offer valid July 1 - Dec. 31, 2009), that California branches were originally excluded because their systems had not yet been integrated. Maybe now that the integration is complete, the bank forgot to remove the exclusion from the wording.

To update, my fears were premature, I did get both postings, one for 10,000 and the second for 12,500 on 11/25 , so there is hope for others who didn't get both tracking numbers

Anyone get Mileathon credit for their account? I opened in August and still haven't gotten, so I am trying to figure out if it's normal or a problem with my credits in particular. Thanks.

I opened up my accounts in November, but none of them earned Mileathon points and they are not even showing up as an activity in my Mileathon progress.
