milesource supergift certificates
 
Hi there

I have a 2 parter.

When you redeem for super certificates, does
it list the name of the store or restaurant you can use it at or is it usable a many
different places? (the redeem pages on milesource don't seem to specify, it just lists the restaurant)

Also, I live in Canada. I'm going on vacation to the US soon and would like to order the USD certificates for Red Lobster.
Do you know if they will send USD certicates to Canadians?

The SuperCertificate you get from milesoucr is good for any merchant @ www.giftcertificates.com. Milesource sends you a code that you use to redeem a "SuperCertificate" for any of the merchants.

I believe -- not sure -- that you can request USD certs to be sent to Canada. Check with giftcertificate.com on that. Milesource can't help you, and getting a reply can take weeks.

Tip: If you have the points, redeem now. Both Milesource @ giftcertificates.com are reported to be on shaky ground. And availability of specific certs is starting to deteriorate.

They also have an URL for their Canadian division:

tks guys.
I'll check with supercertificates.com

I've got over 18000 miles with milesource and my brother 9000.

I was going for the 25000 air ticket on American until they jacked up the points.
I took that as the 1st sign on financial problems.

If that doesn't work out, I'm probably going to opt for flooz.

The canadian site is the same conversion as the US supercertificates but as USD, it's worth more especially since I'm going this summer.

Just my opinion, I would bail *immediately* on MileSource and I would not hold onto any SuperCertificates at Giftcertificates.com either. When they belly-up, those SuperCertificates are going to be super worthless.

Just as a note.
I emailed giftcerticates.com.
They won't mail USD GC's to Canada.
