My membership year ends September 30, so I have until Nov 1, 2010 to cash in my eRewards. Let's say I have enough points for 4,000 PCR points. Is there a way to get the 4,000 points to somehow post to my PCR account in 2011 (for 2011 elite status)?

My gut is telling me NO...

Thanks y'all.

Since Nov. 1 is TWO MONTHS before the beginning of 2011, I doubt it. Once you redeem e-rewards for PC points, you'll get a message saying that your points will post within "6 to 8 weeks," but in reality it happens faster than that. And it certainly won't be LONGER than 8 weeks.

Your best hope is to get the e-rewards redemption deadline eliminated (at least for this year). Maybe you'll get lucky and that will happen (or you could ask, though I don't know if they generally grant such requests). This has happened to some lucky people. (For example, my normal expiry date of Aug. 1 was eliminated for me this year, and my currency doesn't expire until Aug. 1, 2011, i.e., next year.)
