I just got emails to sign up with E-miles for Delta and Priority Club.

From the FAQs it looks like there are a few new partners since the last time I have visited the site.

You can earn e-Miles miles to be deposited into your frequent flyer or sponsor account with Delta Air Lines®, US Airways®, United®, AirTran Airways®, Hilton HHonors®, Priority Club® Rewards, Frontier Airlines, Alaska Airlines® or Amazon.com Gift Card*.


Priority Club gets about 1.5 PC Points for each e-mile.

I still end up with enough points to redeem for a gift card every so often.

And with e-miles, similar strategy.

You and me both. I was rather hoping that they would have gotten the picture by now, although I did like that Panera gift card for 500 points! :)

I just got the PC invite. The bonuses didn't credit correctly, but it should offer me a nice boost for US Airways Grand Slam 2012.

I usually just click-thru as well. But I too liked the Panera gift card. One is just across the street from where I work and is a popular option for lunch. I am liking the points for restaurant gift cards which seem to be more popular of late. If I'm going to eat there anyway, might as well double dip on points. You know, once for the credit card and once for mypoints.

:confused:

Click through as well? That is the opposite of what the quoted poster (and I) both said. Neither of us clicks through an e-mail unless there are some free bonus points (or a truly appealing deal) to be had.

Just to make myself clear. That is what I was agreeing with. I click through those emails that offer 5 points for going to the web site or I only participate with offers that are very appealing. ie the $50 panera gift card for 300 points. Panera is a restaurant that I frequent often since it is right across the street from where I work. 300 points for something that I would normally purchase is appealing.

no confusion. Just agreement.

in mypoints, I get those panera GCs as well for 300 for my wife. She loves that place. It's like a little savings on something she does anyway. And the points do post!

All of the sponsors that I could find were some airlines, hotels and Amazon.com GC, Can you please tell me how do you get those "Panera gift cards for 300" ? Thanks a lot.

Sure as long as they are different programs and they don't find out about it. Just use different emails for each one.

These are from mypoints, not emiles. The 300 bonus points are for buying a $50 gift card through special emails that are sent occasionally.

Are there any sign up bonus available for emiles right now?

ktremor May 18, 2012 4:49 am

I got an email yesterday that Southwest is a new emiles partner.

josephstern May 22, 2012 10:08 am

I'm just about at the breaking point with the obnoxious emails from eMiles about Groupon purchase.

eMiles - if you are reading this, Enough Already! Stop! Please!

Otherwise, it's time to close my account.

Do e-miles really expire?
 
I searched in this thread (and read the e-miles T&Cs), but I was wondering if anyone had e-miles removed from their accounts in accordance with their stated expiration policy and/or after another period of time (how long?)

This is what the T&Cs state:

Expiration of e-Miles Miles


a.e-Miles miles not deposited into the Member frequent flyer or sponsor account expire one (1) year from the quarter in which the e-Miles miles were earned. For example, e-Miles miles earned in January will expire in April of the following year if the e-Miles miles have not been deposited. e-Miles miles earned in calendar year 2006 will be considered and treated as 1st quarter 2007 earnings.
b.e-Miles miles will expire if a member does not reply to one (1) or more earning opportunities each month.
c.At e-Miles' sole discretion, e-Miles may choose to waive or defer enforcement of the expiration of Member's e-Miles miles.

I have over 500 e-miles that I was planning to deposit to USAirways during Grand Slam, but since it seems highly unlikely there will a a GS 2012, I was debating holding off on the redemption in case there is a GS or other promotion in 2013 (winter/spring). Since my last deposit was in Sep 2011, I think my e-miles would expire in Dec 2012 if I don't deposit them.
