My SFO-EWR RT miles (PQM) posted the next day

Last friday (6 days after the start of my flight) I called the MP desk, and requested ORC for the entire trip. It took 2 tries and some confused agents wondering why I would take a trip to Istanbul for 2 hrs, but my request was approved and the miles for my entire trip has been credited to my account as of Sunday morning.

Thanks everyone and thanks to the awesome UA agents for being so cool

SFG
good news on the flight credit.
did you also get a refund or future credit for the unflown segments?
