It's ok, if it says N/A, there is no limitation. You can find this with hotel programs, Accor, IHG...

I don't have access to other hotel companies, since I joined through Hilton's invitation. So I plan to top off FF accounts as needed to keep miles active. But I am at a loss as to what else to redeem for. :confused: I could get BestBuy gift cards and use those to buy ink for our home printer. But they do not seem like an optimal use. I really wish I was allowed to redeem for Hhonors points more often than just every 90 days. I wish I knew whether Hilton is the party that wanted the limit, or if it was e-Rewards. My guess is that the limitations on redemptions are imposed by the partners (Hilton, AA, etc.) We'll never know what actual $$ changes hands at redemption, but my guess is that it's just not not enough that those partners are willing to offer unlimited redemptions. |
I have about $147 right now. I redeem $100 a month for AA miles, amd have already redeemed in the past 30 days.
I bank the extra $$ for those times I am travelling internationally or camping without cell service, so that I can redeem for 2000 AA miles every 30 days regardless of my earnings in the previous 30 days. |

does anyone have two active e-rewards accounts (either same person w/two or same house hold)

has anyone held a large balance in their e-rewards account? basically, i just want to know if holding a large balance will prevent survey invites. or should i transfer to partners every time i get to ~$100.

Has anyone had any problems getting points redeemed to accounts when you change the confirmation address at the checkout page section?
I redeemed for etihad over a week ago, prior to that EY redemptions only took three days to credit and im getting worried now that points wont show, i changed the address in the conf page as didnt match my EY accounts address. |

Your address does not matter. Some airline redemptions can take many weeks, Alaska, American.. Etihad probably |

3 day posting time seems exceptionally generous and I would not expect that tbh

How long does it take on average in the UK to receive a gift voucher ordered through the post?
Update: took exactly 3 x weeks to arrive! |

Haven't had any issues with taking surveys, however last quarter I redeemed for Hertz points and they never posted, so took two emails to get it corrected. Now in early July I redeemed for Hertz again and it still hasn't posted. Seems like they have issues with crediting points.

redeemed $120 for hertz pts and they posted in about 5days (posted 10 d ago)
|
Swear this was a one off but I redeemed for AS miles and they were there in just 2 days. Shocking !

what's the best redemption? down here in Australia it looks like AA is not too bad. gift cards seem to be the worst.
also - you all seem to be talking about $, whereas they use points here - seems to be 'equivalent' though -i.e. you get 25 points if you get dumped out of a study |
It really depends on your travel patterns and preferred chains as well as which partners are available in your country. If you can make IB Avios work for you, 3,000 Avios for $100 or point equivalent seems a very good value. The IHG points are elite-qualifying (as are the Accor points in 2016) and are useful if you're going to be just shy of leveling up- hitting Spire with IHG triggers a bonus 25K elite gift. If you're planning a trip to Scandinavia, Choice has some useful options there at a good price in points compared to cash options. I don't know enough about the Virgins to say how well those work out.
