I asked a similar question back in post #395. I e-mailed MyPoints customer service to ask. The answer was No. United will look for the name on the MyPoints and MilagePlus account to match. I also know for a fact that if you already have your MP number associated with your MyPoints account, if your family member attempts to put your number in on their account when redeeming for the reward, they will get an error message that the MP number is already associated with another members MyPoints account.

As soon as you redeem MyPoints for MileagePlus miles, your MilagePlus number becomes associated to your MyPoints account. That MileagePlus number can't then be used to redeem MyPoints from another MyPoints account.
Also you will notice when you go in to redeem subsequent MileagePlus redemptions through MyPoints, your MileagePlus number will already be filled out when you go to redeem.

Th 30 days passed for the posting of the second Huggies 1,750 and nothing was in the account. I sent a missing points request and included the reference number that was included with the acknowledgment I received when I sent in the receipt. They responded within 24 hours and posted the (pending) points.

is it possible to sign up and receive the 500 MP miles for a second time? I signed up and received 750 UA pre merger and signed off again. Now, post merger, I have a new UA-membership number. Does this work (this time I am willing to stay and earn...)

Yes, I did it no problem. I used a different email just in case.

One per individual.
Perhaps MyPoints suspected that even with different names and emails, the accounts were created and maintained by one person, probably due to having the same mailing address and/or using the same IP address or some such to access MyPoints.
