Delta Dining Bonuses Already Posting
DINING BONUSES EARNED THRU 3/13/07 HAVE ALREADY POSTED TO MY IDINE ACCOUNT.
An additional dine to get me over another 1,000 point threshold has yet to post but presumably when it does, it will also post with another 1,000 mile bonus!
My Delta account also reflects the bonus miles, as well!
Way to go Delta and IDINE.
Going to now check my AA account to see if those miles have now posted, as well. Boo AA esp. when their promotion ended on 2/28!

Not only have the bonuses already posted but, I emailed Idine this morning with a receipt for an idine that didn't post (a rare event for me) and I called to follow-up in the afternoon. They told me that the dine was now posted to my account.
I find this program to be execellent with few giltches and great customer service. If only all such programs were as efficient!!

WIth AA, iDine seems to take the ~8 weeks they say they will take. It makes it difficult to keep on top of miles that didn't post, etc. with the time gap, IMO.

Are you talking about AA or DL? This thread seems to have wandered between them? 
The DL one was always earn-as-you-go; each $100 spending posted quickly as another 1000 miles, qualification-by-qualification. The AA promo, OTOH, is a traditional affair where there'll be one sweep several weeks later for all spending. Period.

Thanks for keeping us clear and OT, Points Scrounger. I certainly understand why the DL have posted and why AA haven't - different rules, different post methods.

Well, I sent them an email and their response simply was "You're not registered." 
I know I registered for the promotion as soon as it was announced, as I do with every single iDine promotion, whether or not I think I'll actually go for it (like with the UA 25,000 mile one that I never really thought I'd go after and didn't).
Besides that, I'm a little disappointed at their response, I'm not sure what it would have cost them to just fix the problem instead of basically accusing me of lying about having registered.
