My existing points are due to expire tomorrow - anyone know how this is likely to play out? (I'm guessing my points will expire tomorrow and I'll have to email or call to complain and get them reinstated)

[update several hours later: The 2000 points have now posted - hopefully the extra 1000 will post soon - weird that they do it in two transactions, but whatevs]
