Netflix

I'm trying to decide the best place to put this. I figured this might as good of a place as any, as the question might be a little different.

I've decided I'm going to get Netflix, since I can watch it on my iPhone. I know Delta partners with Netflix and will give me 1500 miles for signing up through them. Does anyone know of other airlines/hotels that will also give miles/points for them? Is there a comprehensive list anywhere?

I don't value DL miles for much. Worth 1cpm or less.

I got 2.5k with AA 6 or 7 months ago, and 1.5k on another AA account that I needed to top off, a month ago. Shop around for whichever miles you need the most, and go that route.

As soon as the miles post, you can cancel (if you're just doing it for miles).

Thanks for the links about Netflix. I just went over their site and I may avail the free trial they are offering. At least I can have a hands-on on their service. But, beforehand, I will start reading your links first. Thanks!

Netflix is very very strict on who does and does not get miles. I had trouble as well. Apparently they have been known to go as far to deny people who have never signed up but the previous home owners use to have an account. So if you've ever had someone in the household that has had an account or you had one years ago you will not earn anything.

Delta use to have a deal where you could get 5,000 sky miles. If you have an amex delta card the min. value is 1cent per mile. I always get at least 2 cents or more on my miles...

If you apply via US Airways before November 14th, the 1500 miles could potentially turn into an additional 4000 to 100,000 bonus miles in the current Grand Slam partner promo. On top of the miles from partners, of course. *A awards for the win!

Agreed...the good times are long over....
...I've had 5 or 6 bonii over as many years.

However, their service is now so good with the streaming,
I will sign up again once I finish my next RTW.

.....although I am still open to new ideas
about how to get a few Kilomiles.....!
