Most typically, such things either post instantly (even though people could think it took 30-60 minutes to post, as they waited that long to check), or they post sometime later when batch-processed (usually overnight). Unfortunately, I think this may be dead unless a lot of other people can confirm an hour+ delay, which would be unusual but certainly possible. I hope I'm wrong, too!

Thanks for that info!
I'm usually very patient with these things, but when so many others claimed that there points posted in less than an hour, it starts to make you wonder.

Haha. Never stress over miles or points, life is too short.
Then again, after seeing how quickly points were posting, I signed up 3 other people for this and emailed them soon after that I sent them some love. Would hate to have to email them again and admit I missed the boat by signing up too late. Oh well.

Also waiting here. Hope I didn't sign up too late, as it was after 10:30 PM yesterday, but the website acknowleged my registration with a "Thank You for Registering", so here's hoping the points finally arrive. Tried several times late on the 31st to make a booking, couldn't get the site to load.

That's good to know - a second verification that the posting itself wasn't instant. However, now twelve hours later, none of the accounts I handle have posted. I submitted around 8PM EDT. Anyone else register that late *and* have them post? Not sweating anything - its a freebie - but a nice one!
