Wondering if anyone has experience with how long it should take? I'm not looking for what Wyndham states -- I'm looking for actual experience. Anyone have any?
Thanks!

I'm not looking for what Wyndham states -- I'm looking for actual experience. Anyone have any? First of all, it tends to vary from one ailrine to another. Are you really going to transfer to every ailrline they support, or are you interested in particular ones? Second, it's the wrong quesiton. The right question is: How often does WyndhamRewards send miles to airline X. The reason: Let's say the sending of miles takes place once a month, on the 1st. (I'm not saying it does, this is just an example.) Someone who requested a transfer just after that, say on the 2nd, would see it take a whole month. But someone who requested a transfer right before that, say on the 29th, might see it take just a few days. Both would be right, but you hearing only one anecdote without knowing the full story could misconstrue "it took only a few days" as meaning it takes only a few days, which is the wrong conclusion. I know that on stay-based earnings, points to Southwest transfered on a weekly basis for a while (taking almost two weeks from a Wednesday stay to a Monday posting at Southwest), but that didn't happen on the same schedule with my last stay. So even with Southwest, I can't say whether there's a consistent pattern! MJLouise May 8, 11, 7:40 pm I transferred some WR on Thursday last week to Amtrak GR. They were deducted from the W account, but not yet credited to the AGR account :( Sandibeck May 9, 11, 5:28 am The right question is: How often does WyndhamRewards send miles to airline X Ok : How often does WyndhamRewards send miles to United :) On 15. June United change their award charts and my "Wish Destination" will then cost 30.000 Miles more, so i really hope that I get my miles before this date. rbAA May 10, 11, 3:45 am At least with AA, my 64k WR purchased from Discover America on 5/4 posted 5/5, redeemed for AA on 5/5 and posted in my AA acct 5/10. Very nice. The T&C's say like 6 to 10 business days. teege May 10, 11, 8:12 am FYI: initiated transfer to Aeroplan Friday at ~6pm and they posted today. ^ teege May 10, 11, 8:13 am To add: I too had a quick post from the discover america promotion. Very nice job overall by Wyndham ^^ silverfalls May 10, 11, 5:29 pm I am really impressed with Wyndham rewards, their customer service has been great lately(at-least to me). Discover America daily gateways promotion purchase points were posted in less than 24 hours and now WR points transfer to United Airlines Mileage Plus account in less than 48 hours. Wyndham rewards, you rock!!!!!!!!!^^^^^ Sandibeck May 12, 11, 9:05 am A very big thank you from austria to Wyndham (and of corse flyertalk) ... Got my Wyndham Points to United yersterday, made my booking today. Thank you , Thanky , Thank you gkbiiii May 12, 11, 1:22 pm My miles posted quickly to BMI, however the 2x, 3x, 4X miles have still noted posted, even though they show transfered. Wyndham Rewards 2 May 12, 11, 1:48 pm It can take up to 6 - 8 weeks for your miles to appear on your miles account. If you would like to send me a private message with your Wyndham Rewards account number I can research them for you. My miles posted quickly to BMI, however the 2x, 3x, 4X miles have still noted posted, even though they show transfered. antonen May 13, 11, 2:40 am My miles posted quickly to BMI, however the 2x, 3x, 4X miles have still noted posted, even though they show transfered. Is it possible to transfer Wyndham points to BMI? xybsh May 13, 11, 11:52 am Bought some points from deal america and got those posted last Saturday. Transfered to US airway the same day. US airway posted on this Tuesday. dmdflyer May 30, 11, 2:42 pm Any recent experience with transfers to SWA? toddpate Jun 1, 11, 5:44 pm I am in the middle of a mystery of a recent SWA transfer. I transferred 64k WR points for 19.6K SWA RR points on May 10. On May 12, 16 points were posted to my SWA RR account from WR. I am still investigating with both WR and SWA RR why only 16 points posted, so this in ongoing. My theory is 64k WR points = 16 CREDITS in the old RR program, which is what happened here. Has anyone else had a similar issue? Any advice as I deal with two customer service departments that are pointing fingers at each other? sdsearch Jun 11, 11, 9:20 am Any recent experience with transfers to SWA? Not precisely a "transfer", but I had a missing stay, had my earning preference set to Southwest, the stay was to trigger the 4x spring promo (now over, but the stay was during the time it was still going on). I reported the missing stay on a Monday, it showed up on my WyndhamRewards account as "transferred to Southwest" by that Friday or Saturday, the base 600 points showed up at my Southwest account on the very next Monday, and the bonus 1800 points showed up at my Southwest account the following day (this past Tuesday). I have no clue why the bonus points took a day longer to show up at Southwest than the base points. gkbiiii Jun 26, 11, 12:26 pm I have talked with these people, again & again and still after months I am missing 6,000 points from their promotion. This is a very hard company to deal with!!!:mad::eek: Wyndham Rewards Jun 27, 11, 8:00 am I have talked with these people, again & again and still after months I am missing 6,000 points from their promotion.

PWM 22 Sep 24, 11, 12:52 pm Does anyone have experience of actual time for a point transfer from WR to show up in Amtrak Rewards? I know the WR website says 3-5 weeks. (I am transferring WR points, not waiting for points to post from a Wyndham stay.) Thanks! Nikolaos Oct 3, 11, 10:51 pm Any experience regarding the transfer time to USairways?? :) Nikolaos Oct 6, 11, 3:24 pm Got the transfer done!! It took 8 days!! ^ dlouise37 Nov 5, 12, 6:35 am O Nov/1 (Thurs) I initiated a transfer to Amtrak. On Nov 5th (Mon) I checked my Amtrak account and I see the points from Wyndham with a posting date of Nov 1. Not sure when they actually arrived but worse case it was 5 days for me. It is possible they process points transfers on the 1st of every month so YMMV. Does anyone have experience of actual time for a point transfer from WR to show up in Amtrak Rewards? I know the WR website says 3-5 weeks. (I am transferring WR points, not waiting for points to post from a Wyndham stay.) Thanks! mossimos Nov 17, 12, 7:36 pm Hi, I'm wondering, there is a threshold for converting Airline miles starting at 8000points , is it possible to by pass the threshold, by say, setting my points converting to UA automatically? fore Nov 24, 12, 3:47 pm Hi, I'm wondering, there is a threshold for converting Airline miles starting at 8000points , is it possible to by pass the threshold, by say, setting my points converting to UA automatically? I've opted to earn UA miles rather than WR points and they're generally sent to UA per-stay rather than once a certain level has been reached DOUDOU1980 Dec 2, 12, 8:29 pm Transfer to AA on Nov. 26, 2012, still did not receive it on my AA account. DOUDOU1980 Dec 4, 12, 4:04 am Transfer to AA on Nov. 26, 2012, still did not receive it on my AA account. mile posted today, Dec. 4, 2012. Thank you, wyndham. kefine1 Dec 10, 12, 12:12 pm Transferred to Southwest Rapid Rewards on 11/5 and still hasn't posted. Emailed/called Wyndham Rewards, and they said they'd look into it and get back to me, but have not. I also transferred some points to UA Mileage Plus on 11/5 and they posted on 11/10. Anyone else having long delays with mile transfers posting to Rapid Rewards? shawntobi Dec 17, 12, 10:16 am My last transfer took about 2 weeks to post..... |
