You talked about United’s points pooling being a mess. After setting it up, I can no longer transfer points from Chase to United. Has anyone else had this problem?

I called Aeroplan today and the agent picked up immediately too! Unlike your call though, they made sure to charge the change fee 🙁 Even worse, last time, the agent insisted that the call center fee had to be charged, even though the itinerary (fairly straightforward one way with stopover) was not a bookable result online. It was really disappointing that the two flights appeared in the results if you searched separately, but they were not available via the stopover search. Last year, it seemed easy to combine two flights with a stopover online.
