I redeemed on Nov. 3, and received an email on Nov. 27 that the transaction had been completed. Miles posted to my account with a Nov. 3 posting date.

As with previous redemptions, the email said "Congratulations! You just redeemed your Points for a gift card and it's on its way." I've done this enough times to know that this email means the points have been deposited into my United account. Chances are they actually posted around Nov. 25, about 3 weeks after redemption. If that schedule is normal, your points should post sometime next week. IIRC, this is not an unusual length of time for MyPoints.

FYI, upthread in post #572, brownie20 reported a redemption on Nov. 12 with a post on Nov. 24, which is not even 2 weeks. So maybe they batch process, and you just missed the cutoff?
