Quick question re: e-rewards

Hi all,

I searched on this and it seems like it's not a problem, but I wanted to be sure so I thought I'd ask outright:

If I wanted to redeem an e-Rewards reward (e.g. airline miles) for a friend or family member, I know that I need to change the name on the account. I know others have done this, hence this question goes to them:

How soon do you change the name back - immediately after redemption, or after some time? How long do airline mile rewards take to post? Have you had any issues where e-Rewards questioned why you changed the name on your account and back again?

Thanks for the advice!
