I have more than 20k points but not close enough to 40k for a neat, even-number transfer.
Any suggestions? |

OK - I just did my second SPG -> AA transfer, 24 hours and 7 minutes after my first.
Am I cutting it too close? If I understand the T&C, additional conversion should work fine. But I'd appreciate if you'd post here if you get the 35% bonus for both conversions. |

I just called AA with that question, since the T&C refers to the transaction being "completed" between 6/14 and 6/30. I was also asking because we will have enough SPG points to do a 20K conversion near the end of the month, but it would not post until after 6/30. She said that the "completed" word is confusing, but it means the day the CUSTOMER completes the conversion. Since I initiated the conversation of Wyndham Rewards points right after receipt from Discover America program means that they will not be enjoying the 35% premium even if they hit my AA account between 6/14 and 6/30, but the SPG points will be, even if they hit my AA account after 6/30, as long as I do the conversion betwen the dates.
Hoping someone will tell me I'm wrong about the Wyndam Rewards points. Please. |
I just bought 1000 starwood miles as I was just short of 40000 in my account so will try a transfer tomorrow to AA.The miles posted almost immdiately to my Starwood account. Hate I transferd 60000 starwood points a few months ago but hope to get some benifit out of the offer as getting in range of lifetime gold

I don't see any registration requirement, which seems unusual. I'm not missing anything, am I? Maybe it's omitted because the bonus period is so short.

Does anybody know if I can transfer my SPG miles to my wife's AA account?

I transferred 20k spg => 33750 AA...
|
I transferred 60k SPG to AA on four separate days this week. My transfers from M, T, and W all hit Sunday morning all with the 35% bonus. My 4th transfer was on Saturday and it did not post, so it appears that the cutoff for them to post on Sunday is Friday with SPG.
I also redeemed 70k Marriott points late on Wednesday night, and they where in my account plus the 35% bonus on Friday. |

Can you confirm how many points you got when you transferred 20,000 points? Also, I am considering transferring from Amex Reward points to boost my SPG to 40,000. Does anyone else think this transfer is worth it?
Note - Below 20k AA, the bonus is 25% so 19999 SPG will get you 19999 AA + 5k aa 25% bonus= 24999. If you can get to 20k SPG, then you get 8.5k extra, 33750 The Amex SPG transfer is almost NEVER worth it, but see how many you need to go over the threshold. if you transfer 39999 SPG, you will get 44999AA + 35% bonus = 60749 at 40k SPG you get 67500 AA, so if the 3:1 ratio may worth it for small amounts only Redeem -75000 06/13/2010 AADVANTAGE FLYER MILES Even though it did not post for several days, the date of activity is the same. 06/13/10 AADVANTAGE HOTEL PT TO MLS BNS 0 26,250 26,250 06/13/10 STARWOOD PREFERRED GUEST 0 75,000 75,000 This leads me to hope that I will have the bonus for transfers on 6/30/10 as well. |
