The email confirmation I received had my real DM account number. I just didn't want to post the real number here, so I substituted "xxxxxxx" for my number.

However, it's obvious that posters here are still reporting varying results.

Network Solutions

Unless I'm missing something why not do the .asia domain name for $19.99/year. For those not actually using the domain name.

Did exactly as you suggested, no such confirmation for me in the email, only on the checkout page which stated my dividend mile # that will be credited with 2K DMs, I took a screenshot of that so will follow up with Network Solutions/US Airways if I don't get the miles/hit.

Thanks!

Good idea. Too bad that we can't have a dedicated thread just for this specific hit. @:-)Certainly would make the forum more user-friendly.^

I know US offered a discount on Club Membership in the 2010 GS, but did they do so in previous years as well?

At half price, I would pop on it... but not at full price.

As I note in the Other Partners thread, if you move the slider from 3 years to 1 year, the price drops to $17.50, allegedly still earning 2000 miles. Anyone else seeing that?

UPDATE: 1-year subs will not earn miles. See followup post below.

I couldn't get coupon code SAVE70DAF to work, also saw SAVE70DAV posted upstream and tried WEBSITE1AF, that I googled.
Anyone have better codes that might work now?

Bad news. Just rechecked: If you refresh the page, it says that lowering the term from 3 years means no miles.

Note that to get a hit, you must earn miles. So no 2000 miles, no hit.

SO NOW IT READS:

Warning: Changing the term of this purchase will disqualify you from earning 2,000 bonus miles on US AirwaysDividend Miles®

In order to receive bonus miles , please change your selection to a 3Year term, and click the 'Recalculate' button.

Otherwise, click the 'Proceed to Purchase' button to continue with your order.

LITERALLY THAT WAS NOT THERE LESS THAN 5 minutes ago when I placed my order. grrrr!

guess time will tell, I had a couple of hotel stays that earned besides teh 250 for the stay 2 Miles per $1, but theres a CD I want that is coming out early Nov so I when a $10 GC arrives I will order it via DM Mall to cover myself
