just got off the phone with a rep about activating the card - he made sure to tell me that if i was not targeted for the pass50, i will be denied - ihad not asked him about it at all...essentially he said they know that the codes went all over the web and they will match accounts to the promo list they sent out - if you got the promo in the mail you will get the $, if not, they will email a denial...dont know when they started/will start this... or if he's just told to bluff...??(doubt it)

I guess I'll find out, thanks for the heads up.

What kind of denial, denial of the card or just denial of the promo? I got my 2 new cards about 1 1/2 weeks ago after signing up with the promo code, and I was not targeted.

I got the card too, but did you get the promo bonus? (I didn't)

DD Member 'Sprint' was probably saying we won't be getting the promo, I guess we'll find out.

From what he told me anyway - thats what it sounds like.  I think i got targeted for the 25, but tried for the 50, b4 i had heard it might b denied, and asked him if id get the 25 if i was targeted for 25 but applied for 50 - and he claimed i wouldnt get it...

I was not targeted for the 25 but got it when I signed up.

I got the $25 x3, then I got the fourth card (a little bit over a month ago) and I just got the $50.

50k bonus takes time (2-4 weeks, officially), I'm waiting for mine too.

You're withdrawing at an ATM hoping to (effectively) buy MR @ 1.25 cpm?

no. i'm doing it to cover the 1K for the promo at 1.25 cpd. that was accomplished. just wondering why i didn't also get the MR (extra 1K MR never killed anyone)

IIRC, my starpoints all posted, I never loaded my pass with my Amex plat, not worth the hassle imho.

starpoints posted for me in the past also. this one was kind of puzzling; valid for promo spend but no MR points?
