    From Ciel: Noticed Air Miles sent an e-mail apologizing about last year with promises to improve call centre phone pickup times and to provide more value in rewards. I repeat, what is the going share price (common, preferred, whatever) for Loyalty One stock?

    Is this the sort of info you are looking for, Ciel? https://marketexclusive.com/alliance...vents-2/78623/

    Loyalty One doesn't seem to be listed on the stock exchange, on Google Finance it just shows as private.

You earned them by putting up with so much annoyance from the "series of mistakes."
    I hear you, Wendymac I'm in the same situation re: screwed up accounts. Just fyi, I have always found Amazon great when it comes to customer service and everyone I know who has contacted them with a problem says the same. Not perfect, but still pretty great. I always call because I want to resolve the problem right away. Good luck!

    I think this may be the info you want, Ciel.

    I look at this a free program. I don't pay for it and if the offers line up great if not then I move on. I used to get lots of miles with my Amex but have had so little action on that card I think its time to cancel it. I never get the miles from my Sobeys offers I can't be bothered to call the call centre for 5 miles even with no hold time, so no way I would do it with an hour hold time. as a result I don't bother with Sobeys so all my miles come from Metro and LCBO. I am currently a gold collector but I suspect that will expire this month.

    We're getting warmer! Had not known Loyalty One is part of many card programs owned by Alliance Data.

    Hot dog! Only $245 US! But the consulting agreement-could it be related to PC Plus or just analyzing the store sales data? Good to know of their connection.

    Not sure what perks you get as Gold collector in Cash miles but on the Dream side, fewer AMs are needed for experience tickets.

    My 15 Dream Miles will expire in May-they were my signup incentive when I joined the program last year and I later figured out Cash rewards were my game.

    I just looked at the perks and there is nothing really except my card is gold. I have 93 dream miles too and those will never get used.

    Expire? I didn't think they were expiring miles anymore.

    While the air miles don't expire, your status changes from gold back to regular if you don't accumulate so many points in a specific time period.

    Promised changes in effect April 3rd:

    http://www.cbc.ca/news/business/air-...nges-1.4020739

    "The program may also be facing problems with partnering retailers who pay Air Miles to provide rewards miles to customers."

    I heard a rumor that Metro (I think?) may be getting out of Air Miles??

    Ceil was saying that her 15 miles in Dream would expire, that's what i was confused about. I know status changes if you don't get enough miles annually. I have Onyx status, have to earn something like 6,000 Air Miles a year to keep it.
