Airmiles Armchair Chatter

[Donald - my hero]

Does anyone know who I would contact if I did a shop at Rexall and the Load and Go offer for one of my products didn't give me AM's? I don't want to go back to the store, it was a bit of a issue to begin with. Neo Citran on sale for $9.99, I have a load and go for 10 AM. Bought 2 (knowing I would only get miles for one) but the price rang up at $13.99 each. She had to do a refund for me and that started a chain reaction where the manager (she's not nice) scanned other boxes, which rang in properly, and keep looking at ME like I was trying to scam them.
Anyways, who would I contact?

Unfortunately that's direct from AM and it falls under the 120 day mark -- those i tend to let slide cause i can't be bothered to waste my time.

@Donald - my hero , will my Loaded spend $130 get 35AM work with the flyer coupon of spend $100 get 100AM?

Mine worked last weekend - spend $100 get 100 miles and I also got my spend $110 get 30 miles. Mine stack all the time.

I have had mine stack at Sobey's in the past. Nothing recently because it wants me to spend $180 or something crazy like that.

Ok gang, my whole flippin travel voucher saga just got a whole lot worse and I'm FURIOUS with AM

Since the maximum you can redeem for at once time is 10 i have 4 shipments coming, 2 with 10, 1 with 7 and 1 with 3. I just got the emails providing shipping details and 3 are coming via Fed-ex requiring signature but the 4th, one of the ones with $1,000 worth in it?!?! Yeah, this is what that email says:

It's been shipped by regular mail from a Canada Post location in the Greater Toronto Area, so their regular delivery times apply. It's en route to its new home with you.

OH NO YOU DIDN'T!!! Promptly started an online chat and i think that response has only served to make me more angry! She says they can't escalate it until it reaches the end of the promised delivery period for the method it's coming by .. you know FOUR WEEKS?!@?!?!?! Again, OH NO YOU DIDN'T! Then she said it only comes with signature required and the email will show that so i copied and pasted the info above ... "oh, well i can't see any shipping information on your account, you'll need to wait till tomorrow and contact us again"

Did i mention that the number one thing i need to do while suffering from a gastritis attack is to cut down on stress since it releases more stomach acid?!?!?! I did sign up for texts notices with Fed-ex for the other 3 and they are supposed to be here by 8 tonight, so that's good I guess

Where do you see a Spend $200 get 250 air miles in a Blue Friday flyer?

Safeway in the west ( Alberta )

wow...just wow. Who dropped the ball about sending something through regular parcel post with Canada post!!!! My understanding was that once the dollar amount was higher that they had to send it through something other than canada post. I would keep calling back until someone puts you through to a supervisor...or take to social media to rectify this!!!!

 

[ottawamom]

I'm sure it will come with signature required so it won't be part of the usual flow of mail and will be delivered soon. You've had a bunch of bad luck with Canada Post of late so it's time something went your way for once.

 

[Donald - my hero]

Flyer links updated in the first post and here's the ones not already shared:

It worked fir me once out west but generally, I only get the flyer coupon threshold spend miles.

 

[Aladora]

Got a Shell email, shop in store 4 times (min $5 spend) from Nov 21 to Dec 18 and get a bonus 50 AM. Should be easy enough (lottery tickets count) and I'll use the STB coupon as well so lots of airmiles! well some extra ones any way

I just got this email as well! Perfect for me, I was planning on grabbing a bunch of lottery tickets for stocking stuffers!

 

[Donald - my hero]

I'm not sure if this of interest to anyone, or if you already got the email BUT .. if you have cash miles sitting around waiting to be used & you shop at the Bay here's what i got HOLY large image Batman, sorry gang

 

[tinkerone]

I was thinking the same thing.
I don't shop at The Bay regularly but I would have if it had been a StB Sponsor Coupon.

I received a similar offer, 3 shops with minimum $10 for 50 AM.

 

[Mickey&JoshNut]

I hope someone can help me...I went to Rexall tonight to redeem my 190AM for 40 Bonus AM. I also had some Load & Go offers including spend $60 get 60 AM. While shopping I noticed that they had a deal for spend $40 on Neutrogena products get 40 AM. After checking out I noticed that I did not get the 40 bonus AM for the Neutrogena and I was told I could not combine both the Load & Go and the spend $40 together. I questioned why when they were separate offers and the manager advised that you can never combine 2 spending offers together. She gave me my 40 AM but I was wondering if it is just this store or if this is something I need to be aware of for the future. Also, I was advised that the 40 bonus AM for the redeeming of the 190 AM would come later...again, true?

I just wanted to post an update...so my AM posted today from my shop yesterday...it seems that I did get the 40AM for the Neutrogena as well as the additional "make it right" 40 AM - funny that it wasn't on my receipt....so I ended up with 153 AM (+ 40 Bonus AM for redeeming 190AM) for my $80 spent...

 

[Disney Addicted]

Ohh Jacqueline... Air Miles really dropped the ball on your order! I know I read previously Travel Certificates would be shipped via courier and it turns out Mel already found that information. $1,000 worth through Canada Post is just crazy!!! Let us know what happens when you phone back today. If those get "lost" Air Miles had better make it right.

Ohhhhh….that's awful!!! I was actually coming to ask a question on the same subject. DH wants to go away for Christmas and I believe we all had this discussion here last year. Think I said we were going come H or high water. The only way I can make it happen now (It didn't appear like it was actually possible until 2 weeks ago) is if I redeem AM for about $800 in vouchers (coupled with my DD's miles and the vouchers I got a while back). I was wondering if it was too late to get the vouchers in time to use them for a trip that would be departing Dec 24th.

Well .. if things go according to the promise on their website you will have them within 3 business days of placing the order (unless you're me, in which case $1,000 worth of them end up floating around somewhere ..) and the travel agent said we could bring them in right up to the day before we leave and they will issue a cheque for them. You would obviously need to pay up front if you don't have them yet, but she said the cheque normally arrives within 2 weeks.
