After the 30+ minute hold times 3 times, I have been continuously held up at the last step every time. The "system is down" for transferring points between accounts due to "maintenance from the merger".

On the 3rd time now, and I escalated to a supervisor, now the "downtime starts at 10pm", and "more than 50K points is against the rules". Still waiting on hold while they try and figure it out.

Any tips, I am all ears
Can your spouse transfer her Marriott points to SPG, then transfer to your SPG account?

PS not sure if this will work. Hope someone can confirm.
