$50 For Not Being Targeted…

Which dept did you SM?

@Anonymous:

Far cry from how united responded to my email notifying them that I was disappointed because I was not targeted for one of their promotions a couple months ago. The basically said go jump in the lake.

I just bought 5 tickets last week from JFK on delta with delta Amex just saw this deal tonight. . I called delta who passed the problem to Amex. Amex said it would be a few weeks before hearing from the promotions department. I tried to register but the reg didn’t go thru bec it said you need an invitation to this promotion. I sure hope I can get $250 back . But not likely.

How can I find out if I was targeted or not?

think this would work in regards to the 25/30k starwoods as well ?

Please help us, please provide us with the letter you sent

@Mordy788:
Then again Chase matches better offers all the time and Amex has shut down all that fun.

DEAD!!!
Why do you post these deals that don’t work? I already spent $50 on something because I thought that Delta will send me the money, and now they tell me that they won’t honor it. It’s not the first time you get our hopes up like this! Where is your rachmonus???

P.S. What does YMMV mean??

@No-Brainer
What is wrong with you?! Are you blind?! Dan just helped thousands of people to go to Israel. Some for their very first time. Get off this website if your not happy! Where is your Hakaros Hatov? Gosh!

@No-Brainer: He did not post any deal. Everyone is laughing at you! Maybe leard how to read and then ask if you still have a comment. Or like you said it’s not the first time he did it so why you still following this website?

did u spend $150 on delta to get the $50 or was it just to keep u happy?

bec i actually got the offer but will not be flying by the promotion date, so ur better off not even getting the offer.

u think they will only offer it to gold card members?

@No-Brainer: possibly the most appropriately named commenter here. כשמו כן הוא.

@No-Brainer: All i can say is “wow” you have some chutzpa

@Eli: he doesnt only have chutzpa, he doesnt have much of a brain either. how can something that’s not a deal be dead? I hope he was joking.

Thank you so much!!

Do you think they would extend this offer to SPG 30,000 point promos? I guess no harm in trying, hey?

I can’t believe that so many of you take time to post nasty comments OR respond to them on this site.

Just read the deals, take advantage of them if you can and/or want to, and ask for clarification if you need it.

Enough of this childishness already…

Just got two messages from AE to my account and my husband’s account stating they will be giving us each a $50.00 credit. Thanks, Dan. 🙂

Nothing yet…
Sent two SM’s but never heard back
Oh Well..
🙁

I sent to SM’s, and was told that it is only for certain people etc etc, they didn’t offer nothing like that, which dept should i sm?

@Anono MIss: My daughter and I just completed two RTs to LaGuardia and I just sent a secure email to Amex with my flight confirmation # asking for a $100 credit or two $50 gift cards retroactively base on this promotion, which I also did not receive an invitation to.

BTW, Thanks for the heads up Dans Deals!

@Linda- the ticket was one way for over the required $150. Did it have to be R/T. Did you get a response to your email that you would get the gift cards?

FYI Its called a troll and the comments are made to trigger responses like are seen here. Thought it is funny when I see it done here on DD and it works. But if you don’t like it then don’t feed the trolls…

@Judah: +1

Another term for it is “flamebait”. The author wants to start a flame war…

I contacted amex delta and got a response saying sorry, not all people all of the time 🙁

OMG WAS THAT FUNNY! HAHAHA NO-BRAINER WAS CLEARLY JOKING! And yet i ask myself, how is it that so many of you missed that he was joking?
(btw, one clear indicator he was kidding was the fact that he intentionally used phrases quoted by dan in a recent post discussing pricing mistakes where he spoke about people posting these negative comments. that does not “happen” by accident. my god, he even asked what ymmv means. you think someone who knows those phrases could not know what ymmv means? learn some critical reasoning skills, the deduction is extremely basic)
in any case, i can only surmise THAT ALL OF YOU WERE SECRETLY COVETING THIS 50 BUX DEAL! AS IF YOU SHOULD??? WHY! so naturally when a guy comes along and upsets your irrational waters, tips the balance towards reality a little, you freaked.

wow. you are not entitled to the free 50 dollars. holy hell. if someone makes a lame joke about it, too bad. that doesn’t affect your not deserving it or not getting it.

@no-brainer: your clearly joking comment amused me and brightened my morning.

thanks!

I was able to get the $50 credit thanks dan

Thank you for writing in.
