Just a datapoint: My first statement closed two days ago and the 40K bonus miles were reflected on the statement. Today, they are in my Lifemiles account!
BTW - anyone have any experience with getting this card to work with the Banco Popular app?

So, I just realized that in addition to the miles from my 1st statement not posting to my lifemiles account , I was only credited 40,000 miles instead of the 60,000 miles for the sign up bonus. I made sure to use promo code "SB4060".
Just sent the bank an email since the call center is closed. Hopefully this gets resolved quickly.

My statement also closed on 8/15 so they said I should see them 9/1.
Also, I forgot that the 60k bonus is split up into 40k initially and 20K (after spending $1k). So, i should see the additional 20k points on my next statement.

So i gave them a call and they said the miles from the statement credit to the Lifemiles account at the beginning of each month.

YMMV.......I was lucky a few years ago with Banco Popular on waiving the first years annual fee.

If you have an error during application that your information couldn't be verified, put in your mobile number (instead of home phone landline). This is for people whose app errors out before the ID verification questions pop up. I also switched from FF to Chrome when it worked, but 99% sure it was the mobile number that fixed it, which they send a text verification to.

looks like i'm in the same boat, miles showed up on my 8/15 statement, last week i called and they said they will show up in my LM account at the beginning of Sept, today I checked and no miles in LM account so i called and they said they have to open a case and i should call them after 10 business days for an update,,, pretty disappointing start with this card so far...
