I have redeemed RR points without issue. Took a few weeks to get them.
An update to my previous post about winning the 150K slot spin jackpot (in Dec 2012). I did end up redeeming for a $500 Louis Vuitton gift card and it took a long time for them to confirm and ship my product. I sent a lot of nasty emails but a month later, I did receive the prize.

Just an update for anyone that cares - I did receive my WN RR points yesterday (8/20) which was exactly 2 weeks after the confirmation email (8/6) and 3 weeks from when I first redeemed the points (7/29).
Points are not deposited directly into your RR account (so I can't figure out why Checkpoints needs your RR number). They come in the form of a "partnership points" certificate that needs to be redeemed online. The link did not work on an Android or an iPad, but it worked on a desktop computer, and 500 points appeared in my RR balance immediately.

I've been waiting to receive the miles from a redemption last month for AS miles, only to get an email with this disappointing info:
"We have credited 8100 points back to your account for your last Alaskan Air miles reward, unfortunately we ran out of those rewards and are no longer renewing that prize."
Mods, maybe the title of this thread should delete the reference to DL and AS miles and add WN.

It's also not letting me redeem for Southwest right now even though it still shows as a prize. Figure I'll give it another day or two to see if it's somehow related to WN's recent IT problems before putting in a customer service ticket.

WN is back in stock- I actually got the point voucher within about 48 hours of redemption.
From the app's page at the google play store-
"What's new-
Now you can login with the same account from multiple devices to get points even faster"
So if you've got unmetered internet and old phones or burner phones from Swagbucks/Perk video ad spinning you aren't using anymore, might as well get them going and spinning ads for AA miles or WN points.
If anyone else is still doing the program, the latest version of the app for iOS added a surveys tab down at the bottom. 50 points for a 13 question profile (I think the survey company they're using is either Peanut Labs or whoever does Gold Surveys for Swagbucks) and then at least for now, they give 5 points for each survey DQ up to 10 times per day.
If any newcomers are curious about the program use the Conga above. You can currently redeem for American miles and Southwest points as well as Amazon and other assorted gift cards.
