Just flew LH last week......received credit for miles flown, but ZERO bonus miles.
In January, I flew LH and DID receive bonus miles including business class 150% bonus! ............what's up?

It would be interesting to know though if you had a US tix (operated by LH) or a strict LH tix...

According to the CP page, only UA and ANA flights get the 100% CP bonus.
I am flying ANA from NRT to IAD in C under a UA flight number. Wonder if I'll get the 50% UA bonus for C class or the 25% ANA bonus.

Here is the official answer that I just received, for those who hadn't figured it out yet:
"If you purchase a ticket booked with a UA flight number and the flight is
operated by Lufthansa, you will not receive the tier bonus miles. The actual
aircraft you travel on determines the bonus miles. "

Well, on ANA I got the 100% CP bonus but only a 25% bonus for C, not the 50% you get on UA. This despite it being a UA flight number. FWIW, it posted as a ANA flight also.

Gotta agree. I prefer most other things about *, but in this regard, the US version of * is very annoying and may eventually drive me to another alliance. I could survive without some of the other carrier's giving me my preferred bonus, but losing Lufthansa is a killer.
