Man, I didn't realize how much e-rewards currency I have. I seem to be a hoarder I have almost $750 in currency. What to do what to do! Any suggestions?

HH, Hertz, airlines etc. - whatever floats your boat :).

Yea, I figured. I have so much flexibility and so many options, it's mind boggling. :p

How often are people getting survey notices. I use to get 2-3 a day and now nothing. Heck I'm even an honest survey taker and spend time on them. It seems like they stopped after I redeemed my first reward, which I know you can only do once a month.

I'll get about 3 every two weeks, and my demographics aren't particularly attractive.

If you redeem for PC points, they apparently do count toward status for the year.

Wow, how long did it take you to accumulate that amount?

Between the Mrs and I we still get 3-4 a week - but rarely get past the qualifying point - and more often than not lately as soon as the email arrives with a survey it's already gone - or it says we've done it already. I normally get enough on my account to redeem for 7,000 HH points 3 times a year.

Its really weird, I got maybe 3-4 surveys that first week of registration, after that, nothing. My mother on the other hand gets about 5 surveys a week. I've made $1.50 total since my account opening 2 months ago and she's at $88.00 in which I made her open the account last month. We both make up random answers... Maybe she just got lucky.

You know, I don't really know. I've been a member of e-rewards since September 2007 and I guess I don't redeem much! I used to save them up to help count towards Priority Club elite status, but now that I have the PC credit card, that isn't needed (oh, and their change of the elite qualification rules).

I usually try to wait for partner offers from airlines (e.g., 25% bonus on all partner points earned, Grand Slam, etc.) but there hasn't been much of that.

Just the other day I realized my large balance and thought I should start cashing it in...but I can't decide on what I want to do.

If you're planning any multi-leg trips to Europe and have the $100 for 3,000 Iberia Avios option, that might be a good deal for you. Seems like the one area the Avios get good reviews are for low miles cost intra-Europe flights.

How long does it take nowadays to receive a transfer into US?? I ordered one a week ago but still have not gotten it yet!

Most of my transfers usually take a few days. I transferred into UA for one account and Hertz for another over a week ago and still do not have anything yet.

Thank U, Satz! HHonors has always been immediate for me. Does anyone know about the other partners?

beachmouse Apr 16, 2013 5:12 pm

I cashed out for Priority Club points on January 24 and they were deposited in my account on January 29.

beachmouse Apr 19, 2013 7:57 am

Mystery $23 showed up in my account today. I'm assuming it was from the Delta transition bonus deal. I also noticed that there is no redemption limit for PC points, so have decided to see if I can get myself Gold status for the year solely by answering surveys.
