I haven't a clue, just framing the question, but thought I'd point out that potential "risk".

In the short term, I haven't had any problems redeeming to the same points account from two e-rewards accounts. That is, have done it several times, as long as the names match... Whether this will lead to closing I don't know.

Back in the day (couple years ago), i had about a dozen accounts, and re-signing up was easy also, those were some good days - slowly they've been trickled down and caught and banned to the point where my second-to-last account was banned 3 weeks ago and I'm down to my last lonely account :/ And I haven't seen any new signups so that sucks, plus the cellphone verification makes having multiple accounts tough (if you have tips on how to signup for newer accounts or how you got around phone verification please PM).
I lost two accounts a few months back for using wi fi outside of my home, they quoted suspicious behaviour...

We wonder too... tried redeeming a small amount to the same Hilton and JetBlue accounts we have been using & will see what happens.

How to sign up ASAP

I have 250 e-miles stranded by the closure so I'd like to sign up with e-rewards immediately so the emiles transfer over. I have accounts with all major airlines and hotels so any will do, but particularly prefer one where miles/points can expire without activity. Anyone have ideas how to get an invite? Thanks.

Check the email you use for e-Miles.

The first email we got said this.

IMPORTANT NOTE:
By June 1, 2018, we will send you an invitation to join the e-Rewards Opinion Panel (our sister company), America’s largest online community where members can take surveys in exchange for great rewards. If you choose to join e-Rewards, we will transfer any eMiles Points you do not redeem by June 15, 2018 and will load them into your e-Rewards account on or before June 29, 2018, in the amount of $0.05 in e-Rewards Currency, for each remaining eMiles Point in your account.

This ensures you can continue to take advantage of your eMiles Points, as well as the great earnings opportunities that e-Rewards has to offer. As mentioned above, we will send out your personalized invitation link by June 1, 2018.


The invitation said this.

Dear Member,

A few days ago, we informed you that you will no longer be able to earn or redeem eMiles Points effective June 15, 2018, and we promised you a new opportunity to earn with the e-Rewards Opinion Panel (our sister company) - an online community that rewards you for sharing your opinions.

Plus, we’ll convert any eMiles Points remaining in your account after June 29, 2018, into e-Rewards Currency, to give you a head start towards your first Reward with e-Rewards.


Click the below link to get started; please use the same email address tied to your eMiles account to ensure your Points are converted.

need erewards invite

My email from emiles announcing the closure did not include any mention of e-rewards. So they must have different language for different people, but who knows why. So I would still like an erewards invite in the next few days. Thank you.

Has any non-US member received any communications from e-miles re: moving to e-rewards?

Is Fiesta Rewards a new transfer partner or have I just never noticed? Some interesting opportunities from Fiesta to others

I see they added Amazon gift cards and Denny's for rewards. Great news

Not here either...although I'm not exactly heartbroken over the absence of a Denny's option.

Beware of a long survey from AIG insurance. After spending more than five minutes answering many questions about one of their ads, it screened me out at the very end.

Thanks. I guess screen yourself out ASAP.
