The original posters english is not even close to bad enough to preemptively say sorry for. People who favor making grammatical corrections to comprehending ideas best they can should die in a grease fire.
Many times in my life I have been fucked by loyalty programs changing or vanishing.
Planet something points on little bags of chips in my lunch changed to the catalog of stuff you could get to shit after i had massive amounts I was saving, ended up with a shitty non digital camera that worked on old style film when that was not modern tech.
I saved marlboro miles for years assuming I would get some big ticket item when I cashed them in. I had a huge moving box full of the sides of cigarette packs, all my friends helped for years it was fucking insane, they all of a sudden stopped the marlboro miles, stopped sending catalogs of shit you could use it on in the time leading up to the end and the box is worthless was never used and maybe thrown away.
At the end of pokerstars I had to use all my points on crap all at once as I exited. ended up with a leather poker stars bomber jacket that the zipper broke on even though I never wore it out of the house because it was embarrassing and dumb, some short short short short cargo shorts, and some signed books. That may seem like a great haul to no one ever but I would have rather had MTT buy ins.
Most recently I spent Four years collecting coins that were given out during mlb.com Beat the Streak contest. I never spent one and was saving for a big ticket prize. At the end of last year it was written on the website that the coins would not go away and to get ready for better prizes next year. They stopped using the coins at the start of this year and have not responded to my satisfaction to 5 plus emails and one written letter. They lied to me and stopped the coin aspect contest without warning while lying about it.
I have four cigar boxes filled with players cards from places I may never go back to with points that will disappear if they have not already. This plus more stories like them that I can not recall on the fly have lead me to a place I am now: An active member My coke rewards and the Comp card at my everyday casino Maryland Live. I use my points with these programs as I get them never waiting more than a few weeks to empty the reservoir of points on whatever available. I do this because so many times the rules have changed on me or I was left out dry. I do not have a list of stories about how rewards programs got much better in the middle of me participating in them.
