Thanks for the report! I'm guessing I'll be the guinea pig if I attempt a transfer to my son's Alaska account. Anyone else tried this?

I have created a Wikipost with a framework to record transfer time experiences to each partner. I have populated the list with a few reports from 2013 -and 2014, and provided links to the reports.

If you can see the [Edit] button in the lower right corner of the Wikipost, please record your transfer time. If you are not yet eligible to edit the Wikipost please add a reply to the thread, and I will make the edit.

Please also report the day of the week the transfer was initiated. It may be more a transfer schedule than a transfer speed (eg, it may be Diners Club transfers to partner X once a week on a particular day of the week), in which case just the number of days it took could be a little misleading.

Thanks.

Has anyone done a transfer to SPG? I initiated a transfer on 11/9 and points still have not shown up on SPG account.

Will report back when they show up.
