If the title of this article seems like déjà vu, that is because a new offer has just been released from Virgin America — which is almost identical to an offer highlighted in this article written by Mike Friedman and a second offer to sign up for a different newsletter only 13 days later, both of which have since expired — except instead of subscribing to a newsletter from Virgin Hotels or Virgin Sport to earn a quick and easy 500 Elevate points, this promotion pertains to subscribing to a newsletter by Virgin Produced to earn a quick and easy 500 Elevate points; and this offer is valid through Wednesday, October 26, 2016.
Terms and Conditions
Only one e-mail address is allowed; and only one set of 500 points will be awarded per Elevate account membership number.
Bonus Elevate reward points earned in this offer do not qualify towards Elevate Gold or Elevate Silver elite level status. Please allow ten days for your points to post from the promotion end date.
By subscribing, you agree to the terms and conditions. Virgin Sport has the right to send to you news, promotions and event information vie e-mail messages.
Other terms and conditions of the Elevate frequent flier loyalty program apply.
Summary
As Mike Friedman wrote in the aforementioned article attributed to him, what more could he want from Virgin America? “I’ve only flown them once, but they’ve allowed me to accumulate thousands of free points through bonuses, surveys and newsletters. Those are my favorite kinds of points; the ones that involve no work, whatsoever. Heck, they have even helped me earn points at other airlines and then given me a fare sale for doing so.”
Although this offer technically has a “string” attached to it where you must subscribe to the Virgin Sport newsletter — unlike this promotion where all you had to do was click in order to earn 500 Elevate points, as Susan Fleming pointed out back on Wednesday, December 24, 2014 — you can always unsubscribe from the newsletter after the 500 Elevate points appear in your account.
Regardless, subscribing to the Virgin Produced newsletter — which appears to be for information pertaining to original programming and entertainment produced by Virgin America — is still a quick and easy way to add 500 Elevate points to your account.
