I'm waiting for the sign up bonus miles to post to book award flights for this summer-- the partner award seats that I want are still available and I know that can change at any time. I'd appreciate some data points as I'm wondering if I should give up waiting on this and just buy the remaining tickets.
I think you're implying it but I'm not certain - did you complete all of the required spend before the first statement was generated (so it should say on your statement. E.g. $3000+ for purchases)?
I did not hit my $3000 by my first statement (Sep 2018) but did on my second (Oct 2018).
When my second statement was generated (Oct 5), my miles from purchases AND the bonus miles hit my UA account 2 days later.
Sounds like the only difference between you and I is that you met the spend within the first statement period and I did in the second. Perhaps they never issue a bonus in the first statement? You be waiting until your next statement.
My documentation from signing up says "After qualifying, please allow 6 to 8 weeks for bonus miles to post to your account".
Maybe call Chase and ask them?
