I wasn't following this thread so please let me know if this was discussed already.

I got an offer in the mail today from fidelity for 50k AA miles for depositing 100k.

If I decide to do it, how do I add on the UA/DL/Apple offers?

I think this is dead, at least the combining of multiple offers within a 12 month period. I opened an account in mid-March and received 50k United miles along with 25k Delta miles. I signed up for the Apple gift card on April 16 and received an email saying I did not open or fund a qualifying account. So it looks like there is no more combing the Apple offer along with a mileage offer.

Did you fund anymore after signing up for the Apple gc?
I'm in a similar boat, but never received the email.
What are ppl's experience with how long after signing up for the Apple gc, did the card arrive? Is it simply a 30 day period?

I'm cycling 150k for the $300 Apple GC and I did AA in March and got my 50k from that.

I didn't receive a denial email. I'll let you know in 2 weeks if they give me the GC or tell me to bugger off if cycling is indeed dead as some say on FT.

Yes, I funded over $150,000 after signing up for the gc. But it appears Fidelity changed their terms sometime around the first week in April enforcing the one offer per 12 months rule, so I would guess that anybody who recevied a mileage bonus recently and signed up for the Apple gc after the first week in April will not be receving the card. I think cycling may still work to receive a particular offer, but the combining of offers appears to be over, including combining a mileage offer with the Apple gc offer.

You received the email today? Or did you receive it soon after you signed up on April 16?

Means their system flagged your account as not having the necessary funds. Cycling seems to be dead indeed.

I received the email today. Looks like cycling and/or combining of offers is dead.

So no recent successes with cycling after about 4/15?

I got the UA in March, was denied the DL in early April, signed up for the Apple offer on 04/11 and received confirmation that my Apple GC is on its way

compddd · « **Reply #471 on:** May 23, 2012, 09:45:54 PM »

Did you cycle for the Apple offer?

Drago · « **Reply #472 on:** May 25, 2012, 06:12:33 AM »

I signed up for the Apple offer a few weeks ago after already having cycled 100k. I just got an email from them saying that I haven't yet reached the threshold. Since I signed up, I've done around 50k, trying to reach 150k.
What this tells me is that the bonus offer is still working, but the prior cycling doesn't help.

Lots of people on FT say cycling still works. It's all a big mess at this point now though and seems silly.

Just invest in some stocks while the market is down and make more than a $500 GC lol

What is this mess about? If cycling works then we are good.

Dear Mr. sawlw:

Thank you for your interest in the Apple Gift Card promotion. However, you do not qualify for this promotion at this time and will not be receiving a gift card.

According to the terms of our promotions, you may only take advantage of one promotional offer every rolling 12 months. However, you have already taken advantage of two; the United and Delta sky miles promotions.

In addition, you have failed to meet the terms of either of the airline mile offers as they require you to hold the funds within your account for a minimum of 6 months. As such, you have been blocked from participating in any promotions with Fidelity in the future.

Please note, Fidelity also retains the right to charge your account for the value of the miles credited if you do not maintain the funds within your account for the 6 month period.

Thank you for contacting us, Mr. sawlw. If you have any questions, please send us another message any time. You can also contact us at (800)544-6666. Associates are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Have a great day.

Sincerely,

Damon C. McCafferty
