Without wanting to damage anyone's conscience...is there someone who already has global entry and wouldn't mind my wife and myself using their united code for our application?
i've looked into the amex platinum (which reimburses global entry), but our annual income is below their approval for the card.

Under the initial approach when you submitted a receipt for travelbank credit, there was no meaningful way to verify for whom the fee was paid.
Under the new "virtual credit card" approach UA could do so. That said, it seems unlikely that they will do so or to audit the use.

Thank you for your request. Your code is taking longer than usual
to be generated. We apologize for any inconvenience.
For over a month? I requested November 5th and have reached out to United and both times I get... Please allow another 7-10 days as your request is taking longer than usual.
Shocking it takes them over 30 days to generate some CC code

I requested mine on 12/5 and got the e-mail with a link to the code 12/6. I had just made platinum a week prior.

If I'm reading the Global Entry webpage correctly, there's a way to visit the GE enrollment center without leaving security between flights at IAH.

If that is the case, can someone please tell me how to get there? Is it in the walkway between terminal D & E?

2 weeks from today will be just about 2 months after I first requested my code.
Frustrating

Global Entry Fee Compensation Site Down for a Week
I made plat this year and have been trying to get my code to enroll in global entry. I signed up at united.com/globalentrycompensation and received an email saying my code is ready. But I've been trying to access it for a week now and I keep getting an error message saying the site is unavailable.
Has anybody else had success in the past week?
I sent a message to MP customer service but have yet to receive a response.

Solved!
This time I tried re-selecting Request code instead of View code and I got through. Makes no sense given the email says to follow the link to view your code, but clearly I should have tried this a long time ago.
Hopefully this will help other folks who get the error message (technical difficulties, site temporarily unavailable).

i've been trying to get my code for like half a year now. @united tried three times, the MPSC tried, called web support and they tried, haven't gotten a reply from UAI. i'm just about ready to completely give up on ever getting my code working.
