Thanks O/P, sign up was painless and receiving offers already.

From the way I understand it - current quarter ends on March 31st. So if you are at or over 500 e-miles by March 31st, then 500 miles will be posted into your designated ff account in April. E-miles expire within 1 yr from the quarter in which they are earned - so perhaps it would make sense for me not to do any more earning opportunities until April, since I do have enough e-miles for my 500 mile award, and I doubt I could get another 500 e-miles just in March alone. |

My wife and I both got a 50 point offer from Carnival cruises today. No email alert, so check your account. You have to sign up to be contacted. From what I read elsewhere, you might want to put in a phone number other than your primary phone #, given the number of times Carnival calls when one does this.

Members, please list the partcipating airlines
To All E-Miles members,
can someone provide me a list of all current partcipating airlines? One thing I hate about E-Miles, once you set your airline of choice for that program. That fact is set in stone unless you scrap your account. I guess I will wait...I have been using these programs to prop up my FF expirations anyway...maybe I will join when my NWP comes to expiration... |
From their web page:
You can earn e-Miles miles to be deposited into your frequent flyer account with Continental Airlines®, Delta Air Lines®, Northwest Airlines®, or US Airways®. |

Right. However, from the 505 e-miles I have, I'd say only 100 came from genuine earning opportunities - the rest were from the initial surveys. I'm going to assume for now, that this is not going to be so profitable and getting 500 miles every quarter is probably not gonna happen. So, I'm going to forgo earning more e-miles in March, thus hopefully keeping those earning opportunities available to be earned in April (meaning they get extra 3 months added to their expiration date).

I signed up multiple people in my household but am finding the 5-10 point surveys quite tedious. Once we each reach 500 points, we're done.

I agree, totally tedious.
I have a problem with the site showing 4 surveys to take, then I click on #1, then #2 and when I click on #3, then #4 disappears. I can't ever seem to get it back. |

Time to check your accounts again-I found several opportunities there today.I have had over 500 for several weeks now-I am very curious to see if the miles post seamlessly at the end of the month.

I got 4 offers today @ 5 pts each. I have a grand total of 455 pts. 25 days to earn 45 pts. I hope the offers do not dry up now I am so close.

Well, okay, you do need to spend some to get these, but you can spend the money on something you need. |

and I had apparently missed some a few days ago but got the many from tonite just now. Some ask, "would you be interested in seeing offers for this in e-Miles in the future?" and I always say "YES" because then we all get more miles from clicking. Wow, this is like pay-by-click "SEM" work! hehehe Anyway, I'm at 440 now... :)MM |
Well I am over 500 miles now. Now just need to wait until the quarter.
|
I just passed 500 with tonight's miles. I hope these count as activity with US Airways. I'm not flying them this year and want to keep my miles from expiring.
Does anyone know if this will be counted as activity that extends the expiration date? |
I'm sooo close... 490 miles! Odds that I make it to 500 before the end of the month?
|
I'm at 490 too as of today. We'll see what happens!

I also hit the 500 mark and will hopefully see miles in my CO account once Q1 ends. Do we know whether e-miles will deposit odd amounts over each 500 mile blocks or will they round down to the nearest 500?
Does this make sense? |

I thought the terms stated they post in 500 mile blocks and the remainder is carried over
Half this thread would be non-existent if people actually spent a minute to read the T&C. |
yay - passed 500 miles before the end of the quarter

Got an interesting offer for political messages today. As far as I can remember it is the first non-travel related one I've been offere.

I got the political message and a cancer walk the other day. |
i got those too.
maybe it is the infancy of online voting & poling to someday be?? anyway, I am at 465 points, wondering when I will hit 500 and what will happen then. :)MM |
Oh yeah- I forgot the Cancer Walk one too.

Stalled at 495..
With the breast walk offer pending. I'm wondering if I will get an offer for 5 more points, or if they are "pushing" the breast walk offer by not letting me get to 500 without it....
|
got on the site to see if some offers were there that I had not seen. saw one for 5 points about the honda. did that and am stuck at 475.
|
Did anyone else do the 50 point adobe one a couple of weeks ago. It's looking like it won't post in time to push me over the top. I am stuck at 465. If anyone did get their 50 points, how long did it take?
|
Sweet.
Just picked up 40 more points (5 for Zip Realty, then another 25 for a follow-up from them, 5 more from TurboTax). I'm now at 505, just in time for the end of the quarter. |
I'm at 525 or some such now... Wondering when they'll post to my account now.
|
Yea, that Zip Realty offer arrived just in time! (It put me at 515.)
Won't it be nice to see an easy 500 points post? |
