Lifetime Miles/ Onepass/Mileage Plus Transfer Issues
So I am sitting on 953K lifetime miles. I should and could make the vaulted 1 million miles plateau on my own this year with new flights. However, I also am sitting on 300K miles in OnePass. When United does the combination routine, I should get over 1 million with no problems.
I thought I could make myself a 1 million mile'r simply by transferring some miles on my own, so I did a combination transfer from One Pass of 50K miles.
It immediately showed up in my mileage account but didnt budge the lifetime miles total.
My question is: Did I hurt myself by manually transferring those miles before United does its combo sweep? Should I move those miles back into One Pass for lifetime credit?
Thanks

In a couple months the systems will automagically combine the numbers and you'll have your 1MM status. Until then just be patient.

My adjustment lifetime miles & my continental lifetime miles will push me over the 1mm threshold.
I wasn't expecting any recognition until the systems merged---but just called to make a reservation and the agent thanked me for being a Million Mile flier. That was a nice surprise.*
* but it doesn't make up for losing the old MM perks....

So, the UA bump put me over 1MM on UA and gave me 1P status. I have created a CO account (on Jan 1st) and linked them (on Jan 1st). Here it is Jan 13 and CO still shows me as non-elite. Shouldn't I be Gold on CO? Previous reports of status matching between the 2 was 7-10 days but here is it 13 days.

Linking vs Matching
I think linking & matching are two different things. Go to www.united.com/combinemyactivity
This should be automatic later this quarter 2012, but I think it will be faster if you follow this link, but not sure.

Big surprise on Tuesday (this week) - didn't know about the re-calc.
Went from 837K to 1.086m. about a 25% bump.
Thanks United (and LH, and TG and others) !
let the new race begin!
