I never played a single cash game and only played for tokens and had built up a lot of tokens just playing token games.

I wonder if MyPoints will yank back those 4,000 points?

I would have just left the money in the account and considered it the price you paid for the ~2,000 miles (a great price at $10!), I think you made a mistake trying to withdraw that money. I believe Worldwinner=Mypoints Games=Mypoints all the same I'm willing to bet the points get pulled. IMHO

Has anyone taken up the Plink offer for 1,000 points. It looks like you have to provide your credit card information and financial login information? It appears secure, but it seems a little unusual.

I've been doing Plink for a while now. It's secure, and you earn additional points based on transactions you make at certain merchants.

Thanks, just signed up. Concept looks intriguing, don't like that the points earning isn't automatic. In that you have to go in and sign up for the offers. Will still give them a shot though as it is essentially points on top of points one is already getting from their credit card. Their list of rewards looks pretty short though. Perhaps it will get better over time.

My issue has been resolved. United is not currently participating as a redemption partner on Mypoints. A representative (who answers that 1-888 #, a very courteous gentleman) said United keeps pushing back. Too bad. I only participate in the program because of United.

I got the same message by email 2 weeks ago when I first tried to redeem for UA & it kept sending me back to the page to choose an award. I'm glad I'm not stuck in limbo like some of you.
'Returning April 1 (Easter Monday.) What the heck?? Has Mypoints given up UA for Lent? :D

We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused.

Please be informed that the United Mileage Plus redemption is temporarily down due to some technical issues.
