It's that time of year again. This used to be one of the easiest promo's and 10,000 miles to get. It still seems easy but the qualifying activities are more limited. This time you can only use 3 dining partners which is still pretty great. Also, if you already have the Worldperks credit card, you can get the Worldperks Check card. I just received an e-mail offering 15,000 miles if you sign up for the credit card. Use one of these plus 3 dining partners and you only need one more partner credit. Here's the promo:

Thanks, Dani!

Yes, the qualifying activities are pretty limited this time. Maybe I should sign up for the Worldperks credit card. Was the 15,000 bonus mile offer you got trageted just to you? Or is there a link to the 15,000 mile promo that anyone can use?

I received an e-mail so I'm not sure if it was a targeted promo or not. The e-mail has a phone number that you can call too. FYI...the Check card also qualifies but you only get something like $5,000 miles. Here's the e-mail:
