Phone call 5 today. The bad news: they said they had no record of my 1 HR 20 Min discussion from early last week, and that all the missing stay submissions had been closed out. Oy vey.
The *maybe* good news: the supervisor today said she was adding an additional 4K of eligible spend for my troubles (which was approximately what I'd be asking for anyways).
She said she submitted the request for approval, and said it would be about 12 hours. Fingers crossed.
Potential for this stay to be worth 300K+ points now.
