Reinstating United Miles
« on: November 23, 2015, 07:13:19 PM »
United locked me out of my account for a while (due to security issues on their end) till I called by phone during business hours, which got pushed off till after my miles expired, and refuse to reinstate the miles.
Anyone have any experience with reinstating United? TIA

Get a car rental receipt you never credited to a rewards program and you can get the miles reinstated.

I don't have many car rentals within that time from their partners.
I have one from Hertz, but they didn't let it qualify.

I have a car rental from Avis in April 2015.

Avis is no longer partner with United. Anybody have a Hertz or Dollar / Thrifty rental? Will pay if it works.

Old rental receipt to credit miles to account. Backdate the credit to reinstate miles.

They won't credit even if the rental was taken while they were still partners? This page is still up: https://www.united.com/web/en-US/content/contact/mileageplus/hotelandcar.aspx
