Bonus Miles
I am currently 3000 miles short of the award I have been hoping to take, and so was pleased to see the 4000 bonus miles for the e-news. Only I note eligibilty is based on previous activity in the account, and my travel plans have changed with no forseeable qualiflyer flying.
Can anybody think of a way I can get some activity on my account.
4000 miles may be a small amount but in this case it means a lot. All advice greatly appreciated.
Cheers in advance.

1. Register at www.webmiles.ch/qualiflyer for 1000 miles. (You'll have to put swiss address but it doesn't have to be real one http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif )
2. Order calling card from Swisscom (more info on Qualiflyer website). First call earns 1000 miles as well.
3. Buy something at www.lesen.ch - 1st order will earn you 1000 miles + 1mile/CHF + current 100% bonus (I bought vinyl record for ca. 3 or 5 CHF + p&p and I've got 1000 welcome + 6 base + 6 promo miles; doesn't matter that I don't have gramophone http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif )
Enjoy

Your last option would be to buy two blocks of 2000 miles for USD59.- each. This can now be done via the QG service center.

www.lesen.ch seems like a good opportunity to me. The cheapest crap they have is some booklets for CHF 1 ! Go to expert search for books and you can enter a price range, then you will get a list of books in that range. Shipping to Switzerland was CHF 6, but CHF 7 for 1001 miles is still a good deal.

Anybody willing to receive that bundle of "books" at his / her swiss mailing adress?
[Have a German mailing adress only and that would result in "unnecessary" s&h costs...]
BTW: Couldn't find that search option by price, but found some other no-cost articles:
Oxford New Headway English Course Upper Intermediate Tests Booklet:
ISBN 0-19-470248-0
Test Booklet
New Headway English Course. Beginners:
ISBN 3-464-12161-5
Didn't find anything for 1 CHF, though...

****, Absik001, you beat me.... Didn't know about the "order 3 things and don't pay shipping". Oh well....
Sometimes I'm thinking I must be mad to do stuff like that to get miles.... But once I sit in an airplane sipping champagne, those thoughts subside pretty fast...

Hi!
Does "Vielen Dank für Ihre Bestellung" mean that order is confirmed?
I tried to make an order, but my german / swiss-german language is non-existent and therefore I am not sure did I succeeded or not. Card is not charged so far.
