I must be a lucky one
 

I rarely have problems with MyPoints, and have gotten some nice redemptions from them over the past years... I also did the Hilton transfer, it took 3 weeks from start to finish which pleasantly surprised me after reading here of others' experiences. Now I have initiated another one...

I definitely like how they changed the statement view, much easier to keep track of what's happening with my account :-)

I'm wondering, has anyone redeemed for some Marriott Dollar Cheques? I'm wondering how long those are good for?

My Mypoints transfer to HHonors took 29 days. I'm just glad it went through. A Bloomingdale gift card, which comes in the mail, took 2 weeks start to finish.

I have redeemed points for the Marriott Cheques. They took about a week to arrive, and I remember the cheques had about 12-14 months until expiration. My memory about the expiration date is a bit fuzzy because I used the cheque about 8 weeks after I received it.

All my redemptions for gift checks have arrived in about 2 weeks. MyPoints to Mileage Plus never happened. After about 4 months and a lot of correspondence back and forth, they re-deposited the points back to my account.

gift checks are the same for me...about 2-3 weeks

The survey points will usually be pending for 30 days. Other than the 5 pts click-thru, some signup offers may be instant. However, it's become the norms for 30-day pending period before the survey/offer points posted.

I will give credit where credit is due. Recent MyPoints - HHonors transfer [from start to finish] took a total of five (5) days! :) Perhaps, the ownership change has helped in this area.

Woohoo, I can confirm! My first two redemptions over the last year were utterly painful experiences, but this last time was amazing. Redeemed 07-13-06, and today, seven days later, 2500 HHonors Points posted to my account. Way to go, MyPoints! My faith has been restored.

Less than a week on Mypoints to Hilton Honors
 

My recent Mypoints => Hilton transfer was quick too! Spent 5000 Mypoints on 7/18 and was credited 5000 Hilton honors on 7/21!

Any other experience with MyPoints --> UAL?

Did a mypoints ==> Hilton transfer on 30 July--still no points! :(
