Just got an email from pointsmatch@ jetbue.con. They said that they rethought the promotion, and decided the terms weren't fair. They realized how hard it would be for people to fly by 8/31, and didn't want to do that to them. Instead, they would give me 1 million miles without ever taking a single flight. All I had to do was send them $250 via GreenDot, which is the newest currency of the up and coming airlines. I immediately sent it, and the miles should be in my account by the end of the day. Keep your eyes peeled on your inbox for this generous offer!

I spoke with someone at the True Blue department,

The Rep I spoke with spent the entire day fielding expedite requests from people but was not able to honor any of them the only one she was able to approve was someone who was rejected already she transferred him to the points match department and they had him resend and approve on the spot.

She said the entire points match department is in a meeting right now that started about an hour ago and will probably last another hour so no matches are being done right now.
My rep. said the same thing. He didn't want to transfer me to that department bec. he claimed they were in a meeting about this whole thing, but promised a manager call back because I'm Mosaic. Will hope for the best.
Funniest thing was that the Rep. had no idea how to justify the denial for the promotion per the T&C.

@Dan as it seems they will terminate the promo for new people (my feeling of the outcome of the meeting) therefore whoever has any amount of VX points in his account should email it NOW.
Another thing people should stop right now transferring SPG points until further notice

They are not exactly giving away $1,200.00. Their actual losses result only from: (i) fliers who would have bought a ticket and will now use their miles instead, (ii) revenue customers who were unable to buy a seat because it was taken by a miles ticket, and (iii) the additional fuel burnt as a result of the revenue passengers and their articles.

You are correct, practically speaking, but as a publicly traded company, they should recognize this in a GAAP-compliant manner. According to this article Jetblue uses the incremental cost method http://greenandgold.uaa.alaska.edu/images/weekly/20120516-Accounting-for-Airline-FFP.pdf

Quote
The Incremental Cost Method recognizes a liability for the marginal cost of providing air transportation to eligible award passengers (i.e. the cost of taxes, fuel, food, etc. to fly one additional passenger on a seat that otherwise would have been empty—generally a nominal amount).

eliraps transfer hadn't completed yet, so he was able to cancel.

We haven't seen a successful REVERSAL of a completed transfer yet.

Did my spg transfer yesterday 21.5k to end up with 30k vx balance. Sent the email today at 2 after points posted earlier this morning. Hope it goes. Did for my dad 3 hrs ago 40k spg transfer so he's in a worse position.

I have a feeling they will change the terms of the promo and disallow future approvals. But I also feel if there is enough of a public outrage to dot twitter fb personal email etc.. to jb they might honor in the end. Anyone else agree?

Correct I have no problem with Dan quoting on anything from here on DDMS but for someone to copy my comment verbatim and to post it in my name is wrong.
