Quite satisfied with this feature. Was able to transfer 20k from father in law account to mines since he has no use for it.
My transfer has not yet posted. Did it this morning as well.

Same here on both counts, but I think the T&C somewhere say that it may take up to 24 hrs. I did receive an email confirmation.

Just completed a transfer now. Took about 5 minutes for the points to arrive.

I wonder what happens if the transferor uses the points while the transaction is pending.

In the same boat on this one. 11 AM yesterday morning and nothing yet. Online chat is suggesting the feature isn't fully functional and hasn't actually been rolled out?? To which I responded that others have reported the successful transfer of points.

Will be interesting to see how this pans out.

I wouldn't worry about it as longer as there are others (like me) in the same boat. Unless, of course, you were hoping to make a reservation with the newly transferred points. I wasn't; my goal was just to consolidate and prevent my wife's points from expiring in a few months.

Transfers do not reset the HH expiration clock.

That may be the case.

But now that virtually all her points are (hopefully soon) in my account, they'll be kept alive there through my activity

(I travel more, we credit joint stays to my account (Gold), and I have an Amex Honors card; the points she has are from rare solo trips to visit friends/family)

Nope, no plans to use them immediately and not worried. I was just responding to those who reported that their transfers happened within minutes. I am well beyond the 24 hour mark.

Lol I'm one of the people who transferred to make a booking for Saturday

Doesn't seem like the points are going to go through.
