Points Addict

Back in 2006, Air Canada announced that they would have a seven year expiry policy on Aeroplan miles.  It was explained as the miles having a “shelf life”.  I never really liked this idea and there was quite a bit of complaining about it.  It seems now that the complaining has had an effect.  Today I received this mail from Aeroplan…

It says that after listening to Aeroplan members the seven year expiry policy has been revoked.  I do not know how typical this is for member feedback to have an effect like this but if this is a precedent, it may be worth giving comments and suggestions to other programmes and seeing what the results are.  In the meantime, I am quite happy that I do not need to figure out how to use up all my Aeroplan miles by the end of the year as I originally thought I did.
