It seems like the MO is to make it take 24-36 hours so people pay to purchase miles but can't do so with the expectation of applying this ASAP.

I'm not surprised it is taking so long... However, I don't understand why it takes so long to post. If you can purchase e500s and have them post right away, why can't the same happen when you purchase miles?
