Edit to add: For what it's worth, my billing cycle ends on the 20th each month. Not sure if related in any way.
I'm in the same boat. I upgraded my Blue card to Platinum. I also got a Reserve on the same day.

My annual fee for the Reserve card posted during my first billing cycle and I got the 2.5K MQDs a couple of weeks after that. So 6 weeks from the day I got the card.

For the upgraded Platinum, my statement was generated 2 weeks after I got the card. The annual fee did not post. My next statement closes later this week. I still don't have the MQDs for this card.

When did your annual fee post for the upgraded card?
