Mileage Plus Sucks {Gadling}

Jun 5th 2006 5:49PM Blocked on registering miles.

I'm not much into marketing tracking such as frequent flyer programs, but after flying around the world in the past year with Star Alliance airliners I decided to take advantage of those miles. Per their instruction, I sent in all my boarding pass stubs; which included: Thai, SAS, United, and TED.

After a few months, the United customer services returned all my boarding passes and responded with a complete rejection for two reasons. One, the 12 month grace period had just passed, for some of the initial flight; of course their two-months of processing ensured that. The post-date on my request was nearly 6 weeks prior to the cut-off. Secondly, they apparently also required the eTicket, date of issue, dates of travel, class of service, proof of payment and ticket numbers.

Their processing is only paralleled to mail-in-rebates. This credit system is probably only offered to be complaint with regulations to purchase-based incentive programs. With 35,000 miles on the line for credit, they certainly put up the barriers to prevent granting anything.

I spent 45 minutes on this already and I don't have the patience to dig up the rest of what they are asking for. Does anyone actually take the time to run through their obstacle course?
