I also had a duplicate MileagePlan account set up by Alaska in the status transition and had to call to get the two accounts merged. You should call if they haven't posted as there is either a glitch or there is something wrong with your MileagePlan account.
when was that by the way?
Today I confirmed with MP that the transfer will take "3 to 5 business days" because the transfers are handled by a 3rd party vendor.
I'm MP and Elevate Gold.
hard to believe this is true.
The MP rep tried to help me, even to see about booking the reservation and holding it even though i dont have enough MP points available, but couldnt.
MP customer service was good, but they couldnt resolve my problem
