Airmiles Armchair Chatter


I've taken to putting a little arrow on the receipt beside the items I'm expecting miles from and when I need to submit a request I put that in the description along with what the wording is for the item they missed. I'm not sure if it helps or not but makes me feel I'm helping 😜

They also need the form to be signed by your vet and the dog needs a healthy certificate from the vet within 30 days of travel (if I'm reading the online bot information correctly)

Check with your vet if you're planning on travelling to the US with you dog. Better safe than sorry.

Upon a bunch more investigation, you are correct that the vet has to fill out and submit for certification a form within 30 days of travel ( not sure if they have to examine the dog each time or just fill out the form). However, there does seem to be a way around all of this and it is to have your pet get its rabies vaccine from a vet in the US. You still have to fill out the online form but you don't seem to have to have anything filled out from your vet each time. The certification lasts the duration of the rabies shot.

Dogs with a current rabies vaccination administered in the United States that have NOT been in a high-risk country in the last 6 months must:

      • Meet all requirements in the “All Dogs” section above
      • Have one of the following documents:
        • A Certification of U.S.-Issued Rabies Vaccine form that was endorsed by USDA before the dog departed the United States; or
        • A USDA endorsed export health certificate. The export certificate must demonstrate the dog is 6 months of age or older, list the microchip number, and either:
          • Be for the dog rabies-free or low-risk country where the dog’s return itinerary originated (the form will only be valid for 30 days if it does not contain rabies vaccination information), or
          • Document a valid (unexpired) rabies vaccination administered in the United States (the form will be valid for the duration of the rabies vaccination (1 or 3 years)).
      • Arrive at the location listed on the CDC Dog Import Form receipt
        • (This can be any airport, land border crossing, or sea port but you must select this location when you complete the CDC Dog Import Form.)
I can see this having a lot of backlash.
We travel to the US a lot with our dog. To have to get a vet form filled out each time is going to get very expensive.

Has anyone gotten this before? I haven’t been keeping proper tracking lately of my air miles earnings and I’m not sure if I should have gotten 10AM for the card link like usual. I did not go to Dollarama on that day either.

I have one that says May 31 on the app when I shopped June 1. When I log in on the website it correctly says June 1.

1 airmile instead of 10 airmiles is the new downgraded earnings for Dollarama that started June 1. Big loss for me.

OMG thank you so much for pointing this out! I had no idea it has been downgraded!!! Why are they even bothering to give any air miles at all?!? I had been getting Disney gift cards for our trip, and thinking I was still earning 10 AM.

There is a new Dollarama offer right now for 10 AM up to 50AM for using the BMO MasterCard, but those miles won’t be posted till after the offer ends Aug31, wow.
 
I think the Airmiles program needs to award our rewards sooner than they are currently. The reward needs to be closer to the earn in order for one to connect the two and be engaged in earning more (and spending more to earn more). Having to fill in missing miles reports for receipts or worse 4 months later is not going to cut it.

There is such a disconnect these days that they are missing out on that conncection. While I continue to play for the time being, BMO the game isn't fun anymore!
 
My wife has the offer for Dollarama of buy once ($30), get 10 AM, do it a second time, get 40 AM. Don't know what to make of this, but she only got 1 AM instead of 10. I know the other 40 AM won't be awarded until after the promo has ended, but not sure if I should file a missing miles already or not.
