Is there anyway members of the family can have two e-miles accounts on the same computer or have e-miles accounts on two different computers in the same house? What if you have the same home address, yet one person uses Starbucks wifi for access?

As for that, I did notice that since emiles did it's change, it has also gotten slower and there's less opps now.

Do they do something to prevent two family members from joining? Only my husband has an e-miles account now linked to US. I don't have one in my name but thinking of getting one. Do they block your IP or use cookies or something for the second account?

same here, although I must admit that I was invited, whereas my husband requested an invitation thru Northwest. He was a member for 2 years before I was invited.

Anyone know how they are handling the Oct 01 merge of NW and DL miles accounts? I have my e-miles on NW will they switch you over to DL automatically?

"XXX XXXX, you're being rewarded for you time by Delta Air Lines in Delta SkyMiles!"
If you go to your e-Miles "Deposits" page you also should see this: "You have chosen to earn e-Miles miles with Delta Air Lines."
Would have been nice if e-Miles would have informed their members what was going on, but perhaps they figured it was "a given" since one airline absorbed the other.
At least wih e-Miles, the redemption "rates" are staying the same with Delta as they were with NW (500 pts for 500 miles). With e-Rewards, the terms for Delta redemptions only allow one exchange every 180 days. (With NW, it was one redemption allowed every quarter.)
Best,

NW members committed to DL change?
Does the change from NW to DL fit one of the categories that would allow you to change partners? Also I redeemed miles to NW in late September, before the program merge, and they haven't shown up yet. At what point will they take an inquiry about that?

9/22/09 500 miles Pending Northwest
That's 3 weeks of delay

And in the account contact information the sponsor's name has changed to Delta but the sponsor's account number remains the NWA ff number
