Anyone out there with a similar experience and it ended well?
On day 11 now. I've called Citi (and escalated), only to be told "Well, you agreed to a 14 day turnaround, so this is really your oversight. You agreed to it!" Which is factually correct, but it's really a shame that they can't even be bothered to see where it's stuck until it's a crisis happens.

Of course, I had picked out an award when this process started and it's now gone. Hopefully Etihad will have something else I want.

I guess I'll start using Chase UR more. I've never had to wait > 24 hours for a transfer. And their agents at least feign that they care.
