This is not the first time they had issues. American probably wants you to forget your miles. They will say it's security issue.

I don't understand why AW didn't give any warning, so I could save the passwords. Will reset them.

Also, can't extend them by posting anymore.

Was thinking that. They go from giving out miles to bring completely booted

You can use this to put in your own info and keep it up to date, the main thing to me is showing the expiration date, so can extend and not lose them.

Call me old fashioned, but I just use a spreadsheet.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Interesting. AW sends a reminder before expiry, to me that's crucial.
