I'm not seeing that cards have been unfrozen and points returned. Have any of you taken on their legal team yet? My case with the Easter card deal many moons ago led me to the point where I had to prove personal use of the easter cards. They froze my account and my mother's, my boyfriend ran out and spent his points fast. Both he and I had over a million points from the promo. Nothing came for free though, it was still $500-700 or so out of pocket to make the purchases at the time.
I used about 100 cards and made a collage on my daughter's wall. I told them that was what I purchased the cards for. They said prove it, and I did and sent them a photo. Now it makes no sense as I had well over 2000 cards. I've since given many to charities, schools, RAOKs may arrive in an Easter card at any time of the year when you are a bunny.
Eventually my card was re-instated though, as were my points.
I've been leary ever since of promos and absolutley hate the games shoppers plays. They put forth a promo, they know darn well the risks of us savvy shoppers. They also know exactly how much some of us spend in their stores as we are addicted to points and points promos.
If each and every one of us cashed in our points next bonus redemption day, wrote them a note via snail mail, and never stepped foot in their stores again I'm laying odds they might just beg us to come back.
