I have to add a positive for eMiles. I fight with e-Rewards constantly over large surveys that never seem to post - and lately you can send e-Rewards all sorts of emails and never get anything done.
Recently I took advantage of an e-Miles offer to donate $10 to some charity for 250 miles - and as usual the miles never posted.
But I sent an email to customer service, they sent me an email the next day asking for the verification which I sent by return email, and the points were in my account 2 days later (yesterday) and I received the email back from them saying they did it today.
Bad on them that I always have to chase down the points - but good on Customer service for fixing it!

If it's like the other airlines on e-miles, it'll be in the first few days of November. tls

I redeemed 500 miles for US 2-3 weeks ago, which under normal circumstances I'd get in early April. Subsequently I got an email from e-miles saying future redememptions would be on AA, which is terrific. They don't have my AA account # though (altho my US and AA accounts are linked; would e-miles know that?). I really don't care where my redemption goes, as long as it gets into 1 of these accounts. I guess I'll find out shortly. tls

IIRC, AA already stated that they'll issue new AAdvantage numbers to those US accounts that they've absorbed and combine into the AAdvantage account on those cases on which the same traveler had accounts on both airlines.
Reason is that AA's tech people found they had cases of IDENTICAL NUMBERS on BOTH airlines FF systems (already documented on FT).
AA will have to supply an account number to eMiles where to put those deposits...

E-miles [Master Thread]
Has anybody redeemed to the new AA - yet? I've redeemed about 5k over the last few weeks... Wish it was instant like UA :/
(From another site but applicable to my question):
"We apologize for this unusual delay in posting your miles. USAirways Dividend Miles is currently in the process of migrating to American AAdvantage. We have already transferred the miles to your account, but they will not post to your new AAdvantage account until the migration is complete."
Waiting on...
6.5k from emiles
5k from rocket miles
10k from energy plus...
Gunna be awesome if all 21.5k miles post in one day ...

I did get my 500 e-miles. According to my US account, the activity date was March 17, and the miles posted on March 24. Then the total was transferred to AA (on March 25, according to my AA account).
Usually e-miles does a sweep at the beginning of the month, so I'm not sure what to make of the March 24 date. Maybe they did an early sweep for US. Not that it matters, since I got the miles. tls

Sent in an email to AA customer service a few days ago. I got a call today from them following up, apparently they do not even see e-miles as a transfer partner, or something like that.
That might explain why it has been over a month since my new AA e-miles account hasn't posted the miles... Would be nice for it to happen soon

E-miles just seems to be getting worse as time goes by. We have two accounts and one hasn't had enough action to do a redemption in over a year. The other one has been sitting at 495 for weeks since the last 5 "offers" I received, even though most of them say "you will get 5 miles for responding" do not give you any miles unless you opt in to whatever they are selling.

My account has also been slow of late. In the past it seems like it's been cyclical, so hopefully we're just in a down period. tls
UPDATE: 2-3 hours after I posted this I received a 5 point opportunity. Progress ... ;-)
