This whole thing would be hilarious if it didn't stink so much. First, they force early SWUs on us, pretty much instantaneously after crossing a threshold, and virtually none of us want them (despite them saying they changed the rule "due to elite feedback". Whatever).

Now, many have last year's SWUs expiring this month, or have just earned the new ones (at 100K), and are dying for them so they can book new int'l travel - yet they seem to be taking their sweet time.

The real question is, for any of you who crossed a threshold at the very end of Dec, will you get a full year+ expiry (Jan '13), or are you going to be stuck with the rest of us stiffs with Dec '12 EVEN after we make the request to get them extended?
