I have been checking my account every day, sometimes twice a day, and usually first thing in the morning and then again midday. The SimplyMiles site shows up as pending. The miles are not in your account yet. That is fine. It will take days or weeks. This is progress.
The deal of the year allowed you to buy American AAdvantage miles for less than half a cent apiece, which is unprecedented, and you can also earn 40 miles per dollar on a donation to charity through Mastercard, together with an end of year quintuple miles bonus. See this post for more.
The response was huge. The deal was supposed to last through December 27th. It was shut down on December 14th.
Even though they continued to promote the offer for nearly a day and a half after the initial notice, American Airlines still said they were honoring transactions through Sunday night. The notice was taken down. We had to wait while American and Mastercard worked out what to do.
Good news. It took a little while, but American Airlines told me that the deal will be honored for transactions made after they took down the offer.
Those customers who activated the SimplyMiles 5X promotion and made purchases and donations by 10 a.m. will be credited with AAdvantage accounts with miles. On Tuesday, December 14, 2021. We are excited that members can use the SimplyMiles platform to earn AAdvantage miles.
Everyone who got in on this deal is a big winner. This offer was incredible. American Airlines and Mastercard honored the offer made to customers even if it was considered too good to be true.
I wrote last night about a chance to buy American AAdvantage miles at just over $0.004 apiece. A lot of readers are worried about whether the deal will be honored. The offer is very much confirmed by American.

Someone hasn't thought through the implications of an incredible offer. You can buy American AAdvantage miles at a low price of just over 4% of a cent per donation, and there are other great offers as well. It won't last.

If you were going to buy from Wine.com or the other stores, these are some of the best deals you can find. MovieClub was profitable on its own, but the charity offer was more lucrative and you probably wouldn't want the product.
