Just Completed my 1st Successful Transfer

I requested a transfer from CO to Amtrak on Nov. 17th. That was completed within a couple of hours. Amtrak to United just showed up on my on-line statement, but show a posting date of Dec 8.

Thanks to FlyerTalk I was able to clean up 4,000 orphaned miles in my CO account by transferring 5K MR points to CO (taking advantage of the 1K promo transfer bonus) and then moving 10K into United through Amtrak.

Good luck and thanks to FT for this and all the other useful info I've gathered in my short time here.
