????

4 for 500 here. I like the idea of the promotion, but why would United launch something that is so ambiguous? If anything more than $10 on the United credit card qualifies, just tell us. If not, just tell us. This promo could be such a positive. But it may just end up frustrating a lot of people, regardless of whether it is strict on what qualifies (upsetting those who believe transactions should have qualified) or generous (annoying people who would have taken greater advantage of it). United: please explain the promo in plain language!

I never cease to be amazed that presumably high-priced lawyers can never seem to write unambiguous T&Cs.

Was thinking the same thing. And each time I check to ensure i've opted "in" for them.

Speaking as a lawyer, there's a real art to writing properly ambiguous T&Cs...

I got the email with a link to register for 1K per 2 transactions. But the page it links to talk about the promotion but I don't see anywhere I can enter my MileagePlus #. How the hell do I register for this?

Got the same offer.

Would GC purchased count?

Same question here. There is no telling that I am registered.

Even when they try to do something good- they screw it up. Typical UAL.
Actually I got the 2 transactions for 1000 miles email but when I went to UA website under My Promotion - it said currently I have none!

I dont even see this promotion listed on UA website.

The link in your email is personalized and encoded to include your MP account #. You should see a Register Now button (or something like that) when you're taken to the page, at least that was displayed on the when I clicked the link in my email.

I followed the emailed link again just now, and no Register Now button was displayed. Could be that it's because I'm already registered, or could be because the registration process is temporarily down.

I'll bet it's not. I have never credited MP for hotels or card, no dining this year, and still got the 4/500.

And nothing for + 1.
