Usually my stays post within 24 hours
I had two stays last week in Portugal and neither of them have posted yet . Very strange.
i have contacted the hotel and they have told me nothing they can do until the 10 days window has closed , as according to them it is pending with Marriott .
anyone else has faced such issues in Europe?

I agree and feel the same - I understand that there are different properties, owned by different organizations, etc - but if it is all under the M/BV branding and tied into a global reservation system, in some way, why cant when you check out a packet of data be sent to the Master BV system telling it you acct number, number of days, and a breakdown of how much you spent - and then let the "system" figure it out..... if UA can post credits before deplaning, I dont think such a system is unreasonable these days.... again, not sure why it is not automatic?

Because the USA is near the "end of the world's day" so most countries are ahead of us, some by 20-something hours

But seriously, over the past year it seems like 2 to 4 days is my norm. But then, I'm in Pacific time, USA. Perhaps the east coasters here get postings a bit faster

Neither of my past two stays (both in US, check out Sunday, check out Monday) have posted yet - definitely a frustrating delay.

My stay in Europe where I checked out yesterday has already posted, yet neither of the above US stays have posted yet. My goodness gracious.

mine posted early morning EU time after submitting a claim and brought me over the 50 nights threshold . I would like the NUA s now (which is why I have chosen those hotels , I want to apply them for next Friday stay :/ ) , but I cant yet chose the benefit by going to the website . It stays not eligible yet . Usually this was available quite quick does it take more than a day sometimes ? Should I call the customer service ?

I believe you should be able to select within 24 hrs. Perhaps you can report back to confirm.

Data point: a recent stay in the US took 5 full days to post after check out. This is longer than the normal 3 days posting period for stays in the US.

Unsure if the delay posting was Marriott or property specific.

I stay at Leicester Marriott. About 35 nights a year. Probably 6 stays. Out of 6, 1 stay will post and always be 25% of what it should be. Clearly a problem at that hotel. Rarely have problems with the other hotels I use.

I am seeing delayed postings now as well. Five days for my last stay.

My last stay, which was in the US, took 3 days. Checked out on Thursday and stay posted on Sunday. That is inline with what I am typically seeing. YMMV...

I'm having a hell of a time with posting.

10 days, 15 days, no posting... and hotels like Grand Hotel (Alabama) don't even show in the drop-down.

It's such a hassle compared with other chains who either post instantly or at least acknowledge it's in progress (IHG).
