I have successfully merged my Starwood and Marriott accounts. How do I delete the Starwood account?
Kudos to AwardWallet for picking up the new Starwood number. This simplified merging the accounts considerably.

I just checked the box to the left and clicked the trash icon at the top.

Ok i am confused about one thing. I get how award wallet works with hotel chains award points.
But how does it work with airline miles, if you have accounts with different airlines that are not in the same "team"?
What i am asking is, is there a higher purpose rather than just knowing the count of your FF miles ?
thank you all.

Are you talking about a scenario where you have miles with for example: Delta and Air France? Both are in SkyTeam but you have different balances. They're effectively different currencies. You can sort/search in AwardWallet by alliance, simply search "SkyTeam" and you'll see all the miles across airlines in SkyTeam.
Not sure if this is what you're looking for.

What do you mean by team? Alliance? If you "get" how AwardWallet works with hotels, its the same with airlines.

Ok, i understand airline alliances etc.
I am trying to understand the benefits of using awardwallet rather than seeing your FF accounts all in one page.

I can't imagine checking each and every account separately. I'm a huge fan of the program.

So all your accounts in one place, alerts when balances change and/or expire, a place to track any/all certificates as well. One of my reasons I love it is because when points get deducted I get alerted so if for some reason someone breaks into one of my rewards accounts and redeems something, I'll get a notice.

I love that photo as well and to me it is great because it shows the safest restraint system for children flying in an airplane. The CARES system. I use it with my kids and it is super! More parents should use it!

Marriott - points expiration "unknown" or incorrect?
For my Marriott account (formerly SPG), Award Wallet shows points will expire in 5 months. Yet, there was points activity last month and this month as well. Activity earned via Amex SPG card. I thought with the merger, points expire in 24 months of *no activity*?
For my roomate's SPG account, last activity was 2/8/18.
Yet, Award wallet says "unknown" for expiration date (but in the "history tab" it does see the activity from 2/8/18)
??

Marriott's own display is messed up.
