Nothing yet for me either.

Question regarding T&C 14:
14. Eat at a Rewards Network Dining For Miles restaurant. Eligible partners: Rewards Network Dining For Miles. No minimum purchase is required. Must dine at participating Rewards Network Dining For Miles restaurants.

Do I get 5 points twice if I go to one place for lunch and another for dinner? (or same place for that matter?)

gpapadop

I had 5 points posted for the daily online game as of the evening of May 24....Today 5/25 I just checked and I am now back to 0 points....I am sensing a new version of the T&Cs' soon

I redeeemed $25 dollars in e-rewards for my wife's account and 5 points are now showing up in the Points Summary page for this promotion...

pgary

This concerns me greatly. Examples:

Currently there are two 20,000 mile, free for a year NWA credit card offers, one personal, the other business. If I sign up for the Miles to Go promo first, do I forgo the 20K each in favor of the 200 points, worth only 5,000 miles?

Currently V.I.P members of the NWA iDine program earn 10 miles/$1 spent. Do I forgo this in favor of the 5 points for the Miles to Go promo?

NWA WorldPerks Vacations, FDT Flowers, WorldPerks hotel brands, six WorldPerks car rental partners, SuperShuttle , and most everything else on the list offer miles for doing business with them. Do I forgo these miles in favor of points?

I am at a loss to advise my readers on this. Would someone who knows the correct NWA email address to address the questions please post it here?

Thanks.

Here's what I'm hoping is the answer. On the Miles to Go page with the summary listing the points available for each activity, next to the block listing the opening of a new account as an activity, you can click on "enroll." My assumption is that opening the new account via this link will earn the points. But that's impossible to confirm at this point because it seems like they're either not yet posting any points earned to date (i.e. zero points balances per the link posted earlier in this thread) or they've not yet given us the link to the live points summary. So even though I opened a new account for my daughter via the Miles to Go link, I can't yet confirm that the link actually awards the points.

As pgary requested above, is there an email address where we could pursue these questions? I'll try a general email query, but if someone has a more accurately-targeted address, please share.

I would think 5 points count per transcation. Maybe I should just find a place close to my home, order just an appetizer to go using a registered credit card :-)

eddielam

If I were you, I would get one WorldPerks Visa Signature, and one Platinum, credit card. It should count twice. = 400 points...

If you can spend $5000 each account you open, there is another =100 points

If you play the game everyday until the end of promotion = 350 points

Total of 850 points already... nice deal!!!

eddielam

Still zero Wonder if point summary will show up once any partner transcation show up on the account.

Thanks. I actually already ahve those carsd. Do you think that I could get credit for all four Check Cards?

Just remember that every credit card you apply for lowers your credit rating!

Doesn't seem to anymore. I just checked my score after applying for four new mileage cards and it was 990 (top score) under this new "Vantage" scheme. They realized FICO was not predictive after the mortgage disaster and seem to have less weight on new plastique.

AsiaTraveler

In that particular case, I think the T&C already address this:

# Get a WorldPerks Visa Signature, Platinum, or Business Card. Eligible partners: WorldPerks Visa Signature, Platinum, and Business Cards. Offer applies only to new accounts. Applications must be submitted and processed by July 31, 2008. Must be approved for and use the Card or pay the annual fee in order for points to be earned. Applications submitted but not approved do not qualify for points. All terms and conditions of U.S. Bank and WorldPerks Visa apply. Bonus Miles earned are in addition to any Enrollment Bonus Miles issued by partner.

AsiaTraveler

I wouldn't count on that without confirmation from NW. I've noticed that several of the T&C specifically state that multiple purchases/signups/whatever count.

For example:
Play the Miles To Go Sweepstakes and Instant Win Game...Points will be awarded each day the game is played.
Rent a car from one of the six WorldPerks car rental partners. Eligible partners: Alamo®, Avis®, Dollar®, Hertz®, National®, and Thrifty®. Each car rental counts as a qualifying activity.

Stay at one of the over 75 WorldPerks hotel brands. Each stay counts as a qualifying activity.

The CC T&C has no such statement.
I am not counting on getting multiple point bonuses from a partner unless it specifically states I can or I get an email from NW clarifying that I can.

Bad Northwest !

The T and C's of this promotion appear to exclude ( or not include ) Canadian based WP members.

Does anyone see any downside in me moving in with a friend / relative in the USA for the term of this promotion ?

Thanks in advance.
