Check your lifetime miles with United. Mine just jumped almost 100k when I thought I was only going to get 15k or so due to the one-time addition of elite qualifying miles dating back to program inception. I certainly hope it’s not a mistake or glitch. How did you make out?
[Updated to add: Looks like just about everyone received many more than they thought they would based on this Flyertalk thread.]
From about 2.7m to 3.27m, so when I add the CO miles I shall be 670k from Global Services. Oh Dear – another milestone.
Interesting. Mine more than doubled. 300k to 600k+
I went from 1.164m to 1.250m. I was expecting 1.232m
I thought they were also counting MP credit card purchases. That definitely didn’t happen. Many star alliance flights of ours were also not counted. Only the Continental flight appear to be credited on both my husbands and my accounts
Mine doubled as well. I never had that type of BIS mileage on CO. The increase is consistent if they are counting CO CC bonus points which is really the only large activity on my CO acct.
@pam @joe: I wish we could see a detailed accounting, but doubt we will.
I was expecting about +350K and only went up ~250K–have crossed 800K at least…
Mine hasn’t moved at all. Do I need to do something to make this happen other than linking the 2 accounts, as I did awhile ago?
@G: I’d definitely call to inquire. Strange you haven’t seen any change.
@Matthew: Wow… nice move up!
Went from 571k to 752k. Now I feel as though MM is in reach!
@glenn: Congrats… me too!
