I remember when a coke was a nickel, and you could buy VRs in OD.

I read this thread and found one data point of a guy applying for 5 cards and only getting one.
Did anybody apply for more than one AS card recently?

This whole thread started less than a week ago so I'd say yes.

PSA: In light of AS's exceptionally despicable behavior recently with regards to mileage clawbacks and account audits, they shall henceforth officially be known as A$$ (originally spelled it with two S's, but then I censored it in order to protect heiligeh yiddisheh oigelech). As in "I just spent 100k A$$ miles on a ticket.".

Thank you.

(Yes, there have been fresh reports of miles being clawed back. 😡)

The guy who starters this thread said he was cleared and all is good. Has that not been the case with others?
Also lets be honest-they can't be blamed. They never wanted to hand out miles like that-they only just caught on.

Friend of mine got this message when signing in to Alaska
"Mileage Program Discrepancies
The Mileage Program account has some discrepancies. Contact Customer Care for assistance at 1-800-654-5669, Monday-Friday 8:00 a.m. - 5:45 p.m. (PT) and Saturday 8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. (PT)."

What does this mean?

Thats the message others are getting

If you try logging into your account and you get the following message "The Mileage Plan account has some discrepancies. Contact Customer Care for assistance at 1-800-654-5669, Monday-Friday, between 8:00 a.m. and 5:45 p.m. (PT)." That means your account is under an audit.
Someone who doesn't own an AS account.

He actually received a phone call about a booked trip under someone else's name, so don't add him to the mile churning clawback list.
