Also, I registered for MP program by going directly to http://mileageplus.topguest.com/ but it doesn't show up in my Programs page (http://www.topguest.com/programs). Are they still in beta or ??
You don't even need to sign up for the main topguest program in order to sign up for the United or Continental topguest and they do not show up under your programs either...

Topguest has been acquired by ezRez, unclear what, if anything, might change going forward.

I keep getting emails from United saying that I earned MileagePlus miles for shopping...Im assuming these are the TopGuest confirmations since I had few other shopping transactions. But, under the heading where it tells you which partner you earned miles with, it is always blank. Anyone else having a similar experience?

Choice points are notoriously slow. Each time I email TopGuest about it they tell me that CP is behind, but they're catching up and everything should post soon. However, even though I get 50 CPs just about every day on my TopGuest account, only about 150 post per month to my actual CP account.

Did anyone have an inflated number of points post to their Priority Club account this weekend? I only signed up two days ago, got the sign-up bonus and checked in twice. Today instead of 150 points, 600 points posted to my account. Not that I'm complaining but I'm within a thousand points of making platinum. I don't want to count on having made it and then have them reverse the points (and thus my status) come January.

I've been singed up ay TopGuest for Virgin America and Hilton Honors. Both seem to work only about half the time. I do these check-ins via Facebook.

A couple of weeks ago I signed up for the new CO/UA check-ins (via e-mails from the airline, not directly thru TopGuest). I set CO/UA up via Foursquare. It has only worked once out of about 6 check ins.

The worst part about my failed CO/UA checkins is that they show up in TopGuest as Priority Club points. I've never signed up in TopGuest for Priority Club (don't even know who that is ... Holiday Inn etc??). So instead of CO/UA emails, I get TopGuest emails asking me for my Priority Club number

Has anyone actually gotten CO/UA miles credited to their respective accounts yet?

I logged in and checked my PC balance. The points that posted from TopGuest on the 12/16 are at least 3x what my check-ins should have actually earned. Not that I'm complaining, either!

I'd like to get in on this one but not jeopardize my hotel point check-ins with one of the dreaded "great/less great" emails.

I STILL haven't had over 1800 Choice points transfer from TG to Choice.
Update: Topguest owes me over 2000 Choice points. 300 posted on 29 Dec and 350 posted yesterday so I can confirm I entered my number correctly. Just wondering where the rest of the points are.

Still nothing posted to UA though I continue to get emails from MP Social partners confirming I will "soon" get 50 miles.

Has anyone else noticed the Choice check-in's are not posting now. None of mine have posted since the 31st. All others are working fine. Not to mention only 100 points out of 3000 have posted in the last two months.

Choice is consistently slow at posting. They will post nothing for a month, then you'll see 400 points post one day (when they should post 1000 or something), then 150 the next day... Then nothing again for a a month. It's pretty random, always slow and *always* waaaay behind. FWIW, Priority Club posts pretty close to every day.

Ditto for all of the above. I am a PC member, but it's not a program I use (just have it because of one convention booking a couple of years ago). So my United checkins, of which there should be four, is showing as a single PC checkin.
