The only way it might end up as points is if the transfer is rejected and the follow-up is done after the deadline. If that is not what you want, ask for the transfer to be cancelled as opposed to being pushed through manually.
VERY interesting. According to SWA, anything that hasn't made it to SWA by 2/28/11 will be posted as RR pts starting 3/1/11. Seeing as how SPG transfers seem to post to SWA the following day, I'm just a wee bit skeptical regarding the above post by SPG Lurker since anything transferred on 2/28/11 will post on 3/1/11. Can we take your above post to the bank with us as fact Lurker? I'd love for it to be the case, but am somewhat skeptical. But maybe the 3PM deadline leaves a little leeway for it to post the same day somehow???? (But still dates the following day???).
