Problem Getting UA Certificates via Email
I have a ~$500 certificate from United.
I can call in and get them to put it towards a future flight but every time I ask them to email me the pin code so that I can access the certificate myself and use it online I never get the email. The phone representatives have checked my email numerous times and I am certain there is nothing going into my spam email - I just don't get the email. It's not an odd email address or anything like that; good old Gmail. Anyone else had this problem? I am not sure what to do. |
I receive those emails without any issues. They do not come immediately after you request one by phone though, I get them in 2-7 business days after requesting them.
The email address that they originate from is "From: <unitedairlines%united.com>". Replace the % with the usual symbol that you would put there. I don't use gmail though. If everything fails, try using another email address that isn't "free". |
UA operations has completely stopped emailing me

I never get my emails on cert. either after being told they will be sent.
To protect yourself so it does somehow not get "lost", I would call back and have them verbally give it to you and write it down. To add, when I have tried to use them online many times it does not work. So I call again and verbally give them the number and book with an agent. I know, archaic. |
I've had the same issue as well. I don't think they always go out.
Consider it another broken item with the systems at United Continental Holdings, Inc. |
Glad I am not the only one being neglected by UA...
I usually get my flight notification emails but have never gotten any of the other "special" emails that I occasionally read about here. Guess I will just call in and use my certification that way. |
