Not happy is this is the final update.
I was at 706,679 this morning, it now reads 834,263.
I have the data green bar report from Feb 1987 thru April 2007 and the minimum that should have been added is 175,000 (not including anything from May 2007 thru Dec 2011, which should have been at least another 100,000).
Why did I expect UA to actually be fair?
Most of us posting here seem to think the total added was pretty much dead on, if not more in our favor.

I went from 926k -> 1,176k overnight!
This is about 3% higher than my calculation, but I only looked at EQM details from 2005 onward. From 1996-2004 I may have had enough EQM bonuses to make up the difference.

Actually the miles are showing up which is in conflict with what UAInsider said. They said won't see until later but as all these posts indicate, that statement was wrong. Wonder if it will stay or if it will revert to the old number for a while. Only time will tell.

Went from about 740,000 to 1,004,000 lifetime miles. Just made it! Surprised by the large bump, but a very nice news years gift for me.

From about 2.678m to 3.270m - pretty pleased with addition of 591k (22%)
About 59k CO to add.
Of course, only 670,000 from GS! Ha Ha.

To anyone that crossed a threshold with this adjustment today, PLEASE make sure to print out a screenshot or save a PDF of your activity INCLUDING the date. May be helpful in the future if you don't receive what you expected to receive (e.g. upgrades 
).
Previous: 537,639
Adjustment: 196,392 (36.5%)
After: 734,031

Technically I read this one as being specific to people that crossed 1,000,000 (which is why you won't find my humble results here). [referred to now-merged previous thread]
But people are also reporting numbers in these two threads:

Would a thread for the rest of us (<< MM) on what I think UAL really did: a one time Lifetime miles adjustment, and posting mileage adjustments there, be redundant or would that be merged into one of these MM threads?
For me, my BIS Lifetime miles was 230,391. Today, the new Lifetime miles is 312,976, a healthy increase of 36%. While not nearly what many of you in this thread have achieved, at least UAL is taking care of all elites with this sweep.
Thanks UAL. I hope you'll make it worthwhile for this now Premier Silver to keep flying with you.
