9/20/2010 09/21/10 SHAREBUILDER REGISTRATION MILES 3,000
Wow, justed logged into US Airways account and got the Sharebuilder miles, despite the fact that I haven't yet made a trade. I opened the account over the weekend, deposited $6 and just had the money available in my account this morning. Didn't even make a trade yet...
Should I withdraw the $6 now...

It posted for me without a trade and without any deposit.

Easy - I was linking to the thread that said transfers go through without a name match (but the link didnt come through). I was supporting you

Not sure if I understand correctly, but are you saying you can transfer YOUR SPG points to MY US Airways account so I can get a hit?
So, does that mean that anyone with Gold status at Starwood can transfer 1 mile 10 times to give someone 10 hits??
If that is true, why wouldn't there be Starwood Golds offering that to non-Golds? In return for something else of course.
If this is true and you're interested, PM me. I'll give you cash for your 10 miles

FTD miles posted
My FTD miles posted today, for an order placed 9/3 and delivered on 9/8.
The activity date is shown as 9/8. If you decide late in the period for this promotion to use FTD/Florist, be sure that you can get delivery scheduled on or before the last day. In general, FTD Direct orders need several days; orders for delivery by a local florist can usually be delivered the next day.

I called and asked them some questions - about closing and reopening - using my cc and dm# and a different name - using a different address -signing up Mr. Miff - etc. They will only award if it is an entirely new account. They have some way of cross-referencing all of the above - name, addy, cc# etc. If you can find a way around all of that, I'd be interested in knowing.
So using the same name shouldn't matter. After all, there are many John Smith's out there...
Also, note that there are two addresses here: shipping and billing (for credit card). To be safe, I used different addresses for both, though that might be unnecessary.
At the very least, the shipping address should be irrelevant. Many people can live at the same address (e.g. a dorm). However, since the probability of having two distinct John Smith's living at the same place is pretty low (unless they're father and son), you're better off using a different one. You can just put any random address as long as you don't ship any DVDs to it (and just use instant watching).
And for billing address, I'm not sure. Maybe simply using a different credit card with the SAME billing address suffices, since the billing address is only used to verify the credit card, but I'm not sure. In any case, if you really want to do this, why not set your credit card account to paperless statements, change the billing address to any random one, pay netflix, get the hit, and then reset your billing address to the true one?
The "random" address need not be that random if you're uneasy about it. Just use your friend's address or something. Repay your friend by allowing him/her to use your address for his own duplicate Netflix subscription. Or if you're still in college, just use the dorm next door and send them a forward-mail notice just in case. If they are confused, just tell them you lived there a few semesters ago.

If anyone has been successful of booking a rental car, then phoned them up or whatever to get the card charged, and the car checked in and out by phone, I woul love to get the contact details by PM
I have done this in the past with cheap hotels, but not with cars.

I've done this a couple of times, but only with stations where I know the people in person or by dealing with the station manager.
