Somehow the reply went to my secondary email address registered with Yahoo. Dont know why. But here is the response:
Thank you for contacting MyPoints Member Services.
Please be informed that the points will be credited to your account within 1 to 2 weeks.
We apologize for any inconvenience and thank you for your understanding.
So the response is overnight, but the points may take weeks to show up on this go round. The points posted really quickly on the 1st go round based on posts here. I hope this time it would not take longer than indicated. Unfortunately I did not partake the 1st round - wasn't paying any attention but now I view it as UA miles earning opp so I am motivated.
I think they may have changed the verbiage in the e-mail. Mine and another one reported here indicated that they were "investigating". I have the Shout product form Sam's Club to send now. I will see what their response is on that.
It seems that they are perhaps getting away from the overnight posting of points with a 5 day pending period and holding off on posting the points. I think it would be better to post and just have a longer pending period.
