I'm getting 500 miles offered for $200 but can spend anywhere?
Nevermind. They have a separate e-shopping portal thats associated the offer, but I didn't get a bestbuy offer
I’ve done this the last couple months for a total of 4 times, and the miles post the day after the charge finishes posting. Can stack with RetailMeNot at BestBuy.com.
250 miles on a purchase of $100 or more
Do I need the SimplyMiles link? I just went through BestBuy.com after adding the offer to my account. How long does it take to show up on average?
It is a card linked offer and it can be used in store so no need to click on the link
any recent datapoints if third party gift cards work?
Mine is 2500 miles on a purchase of $200 or more
So is mine.
Any way to avoid BB locked account b/c of being flagged as a reseller?
Purchase in store
Well are you a reseller? 🤣
arent we all ?
Just wanted to share I got an offer with my Citi Miles UP MC to spend $500 and receive 3K AAdvantage miles. I called in to hear about it. Seems combining my offer with a BB or CVS purchase works well.
Spent $200 in best buy with my double cash, AA account received 250+1000 miles. I'm confused since I only added one offer before purchase.
I'm surprised you never covered the 5500AA SimplyMiles Identity Guard deal. Only $17, less than a third of a cent per mile!
@guest_1050327 Did you go through Swagbucks for this offer? Or did you click through directly from Simplymiles or just using the linked card would track for the identity guard offer on Simplymiles? Also, while going through Swagbucks the cheapest monthly plan I see is the Total plan for $15.99/month.
I only went through the SimplyMiles link with my linked card. Miles posted very fast and online cancel was hassle free.
How long did it take to post for you? It's been 9 days since the post date on SimplyMiles, but still not seeing it on AA.
Thanks!
