@DODGERAM2500  why don't you buy a GC on the milageplusX app?

500 miles for a magazine subscription is cheaper than buying a gc

if your anyways going to the store, a $5 GC will be simpler

Very sad I don't know how I missed it but I just realized that I let 100k united miles expire 18 months ago.
I guess that is the price you pay for once playing the game but not being 100% on top of it.
Anything I can do to bring it back?
