Tracking your Airmiles
An important consideration when collecting Airmiles is tracking your Air Miles Reward Miles. I read somewhere (can't find the link right now) that many people lose quite a few Airmiles a year. This could be due to numerous reasons. However, the important thing to note here is that it's VERY important to know how many airmiles you should have.
Typically it takes about 2 months for all the airmiles to show up, sometimes it occurs much faster but with bonus programs it usually takes longer. So if you bought something today then expect the Airmiles in April sometime.
The best way to track airmiles. Get your receipt when you get home and circle the various purcahses and not how many airmiles you should have collected. Put these in a safe place and then in a month or two check your receipts with your online total. If they don't match check the dates and if it's been 2 months or longer call Air Miles.
Remeber, you're collecting in the cheapest way possible so if you miss out on some Air Miles that you deserve it's worth contacting them.

I now have no way to check now and then how many air miles I have. Where do I go to find this? You have no respect for people my age (75) who can somehow function on the Internet but don’t overdo it. I don’t care much for your site. I can’t find where to put my ID and password to access the site.
My sister-in-law was wondering if air miles can be transfered from her mother who is 91 to her brother and herself or can her Mom use the air miles to buy tickets etc. for her children.
I’m just wondering if anyone else is having problems accessing the new Airmiles website. I can’t seem to access it at all.
