Concur.. the way the bonus miles is determined is cumulative..

I had my wife transfer 5900 amex points on one transaction, and 7,500 for another..

The first bonus sweep was 1,000 miles, and second bonus sweep was 1,000 miles as the cumulative surpassed the 10,000 mile threshold for a 2,000 mile bonus..

Bonus miles posted as 1k 1k 2k 6k 15k on a single 100k transfer. 100k came out of my MR account and were reported a few days later as "rejected" but not erased in my AP account. I expect the error might be corrected down the road but for now i am 125k miles ahead.

You transferred 100K points when it wasn't in your MR account? and got the bonus?

I wonder how its all going to be sorted out?

I never understood the sequence of bonus points awarded.. but as long as they add up to the promo, I'm ok..

I have lots of MR points but they took the 100k and about a week later reversed them again. My AP points remained plus bonus.

If they reverse AE points on you, then you would have a beef, as the promo has expired..

What's your inkling why the error happened?

No idea! AE IT bug? Or AE's system doesn't know Amex
Centurion and decides to reject the transfer from that partner? Then again the points stuck in aeroplan. So no idea again!!

Wow.. Amex Centurion? You would think that paying the huge fees, Amex could at least get it right?

Anyone care to guess the likelihood of this promotion being repeated this year? I have accumulated more points to convert and I'm wondering whether I should pull the trigger now or wait for another conversion bonus...

IIRC, there have been AE conversion promos happening the last several years in different formats.. Generally you get a chance to get the 25% bonus.. this year most levels were 20% bonus on conversion with an opportunity to convert for 25% bonus if transferring 100K points.

promo has ended already, original promo ran from November 21 to December 12, 2011 (and i think was extended to Dec 16, 2011)
so if you had done it recently i think you're out of luck

sorry for the confusion, i did it during that period, but i have not received 25k bonus, so my point is does 50K amex+50k fia qualify for the 25k bonus?

Did you got any bonus miles at all? It bonus is calculated per partner and not the total you transfer among all partners.
