^ I thought you'd only be able to transfer from Aventura to Aeoroplan in 10K increments? 
Also, having the same - name issue problem in creating my online profile
+ Did anyone receive a flyer in 1st statement of getting additional 15K miles if you book a 5 day caribbean vacation with aventura reward centre? Sounds good but I;m sure it'll cost a fortune lol
oh btw - long time lurker, finally a member

And also yes to California786, only transfers in 10K increments. I need the points to book a reward next week, so will have 6K left in CIBC account.

IIRC remains the case that the points can only be transferred in 10K increments.. the transfer to aerogold so points immediately convert to AE miles is an incentive to transfer the points over and remain a CIBC customer.. by doing so, the transferred member does not receive the 15K sign up for becoming a new aerogold cardholder..

hey guys - thanks for the above posts.
For some reason I was thinking I'll wait it out till I accumulate 20K and then transfer but who knows if they have this promo next time.
So hopefully once my profile is setup (still name errors - I guess a call to Aventura or CIBC is in order) then I will transfer 10K points from Aventura to Aeroplan to get 2K bonus
edit: ugh - just noticed has to be done by Dec 12.

I called in on Nov 22 morning (as per my post above) and it was on my AEROPLAN account when I login this morning around 8am:
ACTIVITY DATE....TRANSACTION ACTIVITY...........AMOUNT
---------------- ------------------------------ ------
Nov 22 2011......CIBC AVENTURA POINTS...........10,000
.................TRANSFER - CIBC VISA AEROGOLD
On the other hand, the Marriott transfer that I made on Monday night haven't post yet. The web site show 6 to 8 weeks. Hopefully, it doesn't take that long to transfer.

I'm waiting for mine as well.. was informed on the other FT thread that points clear over a Sunday..
So I'm waiting for my 10,000 bonus points to show and my wife's 1,000 bonus points to show on Sunday.. otherwise I'll be calling in and asking AE about..
Until December 12th.. maybe double check when the points get posted.. some cards post points after the bill has been closed off for the month.. others post immediately.. I'm not sure about the Aventura MC..

We too received the 10,000 point and 1,000 point bonus respectively today. We did the transfer on Thursday for 50,000 and 5,000 AE points from our gold Amexes..
