Hi, has anyone tried transferring SPG to RR?
The confirmation e-mail states 2 to 4 weeks.
I'll be okay if it's 2 not so if it's 4.
Just wondering whether anyone has done this and can advise.
Thanks in advance!

I transferred 60,000 on 8/30 and another 21,000 on 8/31. By 9/7 they showed in my RR account. They were back-dated with 50.5 points on 8/30 and 17.5 points on 8/31.
Those, with my existing points, gave me enough for a Companion Pass with an expiration date of 10/31/2011. Almost 14 months!

Thanks Matt for the info. ^
81,000 SPG points at 1,500:1 ... ouch!!
Well I suppose if you have tons of them in the first place it wouldn't hurt as much.

Plus 5k bonus per 20k technically making it 1200:1 like the Chase card. There is a 24hr transfer limit of 79k. That's why I did 21k the second day to get the extra 5k.
