AI Highlights
  • - AAdvantage account hacked; miles redeemed for Sephora gift card.
  • - I was locked out and need a human to contact me to restore access and miles.

Around March 27th, 2026, my account was hacked and someone redeemed my miles for a Sephora gift card. I reported this which resulted in me being locked out of my AAdvantage account.

I have tried several times to call and get help with this issue only to have long waits and never getting a chance to speak to a representative because I do not have the time to wait.

Please have a human contact me so I can regain access to my AA account and get my miles returned. And please do not provide me with a number to call where I will have a lengthy wait.

Missed work added expenses

  • - Blizzard caused problems; both flights were cancelled.
  • - Second cancellation; I was told to contact them, then allowed any airport; I want compensation.

I understand the blizzard caused problems. But I had my original and second flights cancelled.

After the first one, I tried to ask if I could fly into a different airport. I was told no. Then, after the second flight was cancelled and they couldn't find a flight, I was told to contact them. Then I was allowed to fly into any airport.

Why? If the first time would have saved using days off, extra expense money, and major inconvenience. Flying all the way west to go back east. *** - *** - ***.

Please contact me.

I want some compensation.

There was lack of customer service.We were stranded in an airport for over 24 hours with no help, no voucher.\nNo guidance. We were left to find a motel on our own and meals as well.

This was a financial burden.\nAnd made our return home two days later. We were informed that we were not to take off the ground because our pilot was out of flight hours.
