Nothing for me, though I should have some.

I'm 500 short of where I should be ... which corresponds to the 2-3 transactions I'm still fighting with Cartera over plus one with Holiday Inn which has after their very prompt initial responses has vanished into the ether with no further feedback.
Yeah, just 500 miles short, but I feel as much as I've had to put into getting those transactions to post, it should be 5000.

Well, at least they aren't arbitrarily capping at 25k like I expected, however I am nowhere near where I should be. 53k posted and I am expecting somewhere north of 500k.... Looks like that quantity can post if they want them to based on BryanIAH, so I am just a little annoyed right now.... I'll let it sit for at least a day before I start harassing MP about it 
MM - You don't see the transactions in your "Recent Activity" until you click the search button for some reason, very odd.

as for the search thing, yah, I see it now...
here's how I did it though:
Earlier... dates defaulted to 1/30 to 2/28 and I changed the start date to 9/1 to try and capture everything. Since the end date was still left at 2/28, i figured it should show everything but it did not.
now, however, if I just leave it as is and let the start date be 1/30, it does in fact show both the 25k I got today of 25 1k posts and a 500 mile thing I got from some promo done long ago.... something I had no idea what it was til I called earlier in Feb. So like Cartera, UAs site is flubbed up too, but whatever.
Now my plight still remains with my yet to post 300 and then everything missing in UA including the minus problem./ A mess I anticipated. A ton of records to still sort out. A court date to try and do it with.

Mine posted minus the 2 FTD's that
were "lost" and cost me an extra 1000 miles. I have been told my 2 "lost" FTD's will post within a month and I supposed there is a 1 in a million chance I can get my earned 1000 mile bonus...

All in all, nearly what I estimated posted, and I'm satisfied. Glad that United can hopefully move on from this and plan, communicate, and execute better next time.

Yay!
247,000 miles for my 594 transactions. People keep complaining about this promotion, but it's by far the greatest mileage promo I've ever been a part of. It took a while but was SO worth it!

I am only complaining because many factors botched up the mileage people like me were supposed to get. I was looking at numbers like yours but all sorts of failures that have cost me a lot of lost time have resulted in a fraction of that thus far. It will be great if and when those miles show up in my acct. Til they do, I HAVE to complain. You might do the same but again I am glad you got your miles instead.

Nice!
81K posted. My latest tally (not super precise) was that I'd get 85K miles. Pretty darn close...
81K brings the balance in my husband's UA account to 95K...just in time for the Capital One card to come out

PS - anyone still thinking that they'll sit out on Months of Miles if it comes back again next year? How quickly the miles made me forget the pain!

If you are missing miles, don't bother calling MP Customer Service. They just give you the "8-12 weeks, please wait longer" speech. This is in spite of the fact that miles started posting and that others have received all of their miles.... Oh goody, more waiting 
I don't think they'll ever let any one of us ever take place in another promotion like this ever again

I bet some would. i know I wont... not unless UA makes some big changes.... If things ran a bit more like US GS that might help but then again, they have the Cartera shopping bit, which I would not rely upon. Not unless they made big changes as well.

finally
so with all the miles for the purchases and bonus I collected a little over 90K on this promotion. Very happy tonight , but I do feel for those who having issues at this time and can not have the same feeling as me. Yes this required alot of work and I did miss a few transactions, but at this point I am happy with my result.
Those who do not have this feeling keep fighting The number of e-mails I sent was so ridiculous and over the top.
I hope the small claims goes well Marathon Man you should be in a good spot to prove how bad their service is.
