I need help. I just started a new job as EA to an executive. I will manage his TripIt account under his name. I'm trying to add accounts and continue to get exclamation marks after waiting for a long period on "we are updating your account activity" I assume the account number asked is the Mileage / Program Number and the PIN number is a PW? I cannot update old accounts or add new accounts. I'm I correct to say, if the carrier is not a partner with TripIt, I need to manually add the account and information in? I'm confused, help please!!! Thank you!!!

Hi Spencer,
Thanks for the great feedback, Yes, it sounds like you are in a different environment than we are. We have the dechurched you described who are looking for an alternative to hell-fire theology - but they tend to be over 35. I'd love to talk to you about the website sometime. I'll contact you directly.
Thanks

Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending.
