do not believe it did -- but CO did not join *A until 2008 so the history would be short and impact small.

Chase miles posting late for March 2012

Hi all,

My Chase credit card miles hadn't posted yet for March (every month in the past they post on the 6th day of the month) until just today. I can't find any other thread about this (Search wasn't my friend)

What's the story about this - there's so much going on that if this was already covered, then I'm sorry but I missed it

This can get confusing!

Nightly Upgrade Sweeps

Maybe this was covered in an earlier thread, so I do apologize.

What time do the nightly sweeps happen for the upgrades? Is it Midnight CST or does it vary?

I just passed the 75K PQM threshold. Now let's start counting down to how many days/weeks/months/years it takes for RPUs (and then GPUs/additional RPUs when 1K is retained) to post.

IIRC, it's ~24 hours before departure time for the flight, vs. some fixed time of day.

We're in Europe and just received BPs in e-mails from UA for our flights tomorrow.

We had not checked in online.

Is this the new standard procedure?

After two unanswered emails over the past two weeks, I just got off the phone with Mileage Plus customer service (first the automated, then the agent, then the supervisor) to ask why my new card hasn't arrived yet. The agent told me I had already received the card in December (she meant the little sticker extending the card's expiration to March 3). After five fruitless minutes without her being able to tell me when the card will arrive, she transferred me to the supervisor. This second person told me I could simply print a new card online, despite my insistence that that option is disabled on the UA website. I finally had to go online and read her the message before she would acknowledge it. In the end, she could only tell me that my card had been mailed and would arrive within two weeks (of course, the website told me within a week--and that was over a week ago; moreover, since when does mail take two weeks to get to Los Angeles?). Since I leave next Monday, this is hardly a solution. United needs to start being honest with us. I have this sinking feeling that I am going to be turned away from Star Alliance lounges in Zurich, Istanbul, and Frankfurt over the next two weeks and, when I return, all I'll get is another half-hearted apology. I'd like to know whether United will think it's alright for me to ask to have my status renewed with, say 45,000 PQMs. After all, why should we have to earn the full mileage requirement when we aren't getting a full year's worth of benefits?
I had no issues using Star Alliance lounges (AMS and VIE) this week and last two weeks using an expired card.

Mine have not posted either. Haven't seen anything else in this regard.

I am sure it is bound to be a screw-up. Have you tried logging in to see what your status shows online?

Good idea. ^ No, we can't find any indication that we're checked in, just the usual "ticketed and confirmed" as per other future reservations. Of course, we're not as familiar with the new site as we were with the former UA site.

No issue for me -- mine posted on 3/8 when the statement closed on 3/7.

Mr. Ericka used to have a funky "negative" listing in his PQMs. That seems to have corrected itself. Some missing LH/LX miles from 3/7-3/9 also posted.
We did not call. We just gave these things a few days to correct themselves and it seemed to play out OK.

Also, our MP Visa just posted some miles last night.

Is anyone else seeing incorrect postings of Air Canada mileage?

I have two flights posted as:
Activity Date Description Miles/Points Award Miles Bonus Total Miles Segments
3/7/2012 Air Canada 7734L
Ottawa-New York (LGA) L / L 329 329 1
3/6/2012 Air Canada 7731L
New York (LGA)-Ottawa L / L 329 329 1

This appears to have 3 issues:
- No minimum 500 mile credit despite being Platinum
- No premier miles
- Premier segments haven't added to my total

Ugh. That would drive me nuts. This really is the most amateurish "merge" I have ever seen.
