How can it possibly take 6 weeks to reinstate miles? This is absurd, especially when they expire relatively quickly. On other airlines the reinstatement is instantaneous. This, along with the ridiculous process of having to call 3 times to cancel a trip and pay the mileage redeposit fee and it seems it is not worth it to credit to SQ or transfer to them anymore. The current process rivals MU for customer unfriendliness.

Is there a way to get the miles back quicker or do I just wait for someone in Singapore to push a button and release my miles back to me?
