Need advice.

I had about 150K MR points earned in various ways over the past year.
Mostly AmEx Everyday Plus. No MSing now or ever.

I was planning to buy a new car. Settled on MB C43AMG.
Opened AmEx MB Plat for that purpose, met the spend with non-MB charge, 50k bonus posted right away.
Found a dealership that would charge the whole purchase on the card ($56K), hoping to get 5x.
Clarified it with AmEx CSR that it would earn 5x points, and got a clearance for the charge.
The statement closed 12/16.

So far, no points have posted. Chatted with CSR, was told the first statement's points can take up to the next statement closing date. I haven't had that experience.

Also, the 50% bonus on my AmEx EveryDay has not posted even though I met the required threshold.

Currently, I have about 200K MR points. Was waiting for the others to hit and transfer them to ANA for immediate redemption, as I need 410K total.

Would the FT collective wisdom recommend waiting or transferring them out?
