I made redemptions for Alaska Airlines miles on 3/20 and 4/3. Miles never posted. I sent an email to inquire and now noticed the redemption history lists them as "terminated."
Geez, I hope my points show up back in my account tomorrow. Has anyone else ever gone through this scenario?
UPDATE A WEEK LATER: Points are finally back in my account. Time to try to redeem again.

Has anyone worked out how to find easily the 5 pts partner reward click surveys you used to get in opportunities on your home page in the old style site?
one benefit of the new site, it appears you get credited immediately for the successful completion of a survey.

The T&C for IHG points now explicitly say:
Apparently I'm going to have to keep grinding out the Peanut Labs surveys for those since Spire has gotten me a few meaningful upgrades this year.
IHG Rewards Club points earned through e-Miles count towards Elite Tier status.

The first set of miles I redeemed with Alaska was July 10. I wasn't too worried since it's early til I read posts here. Hopefully, I don't need to make too much of a stink eventually because I'm doing it for my kids' Mileage Plans
Opinion Terminal also just sent me a link through Alaska and a 400 mile first survey bonus. Again, was thinking to game it for all my kids. At least with IHG that Survey program is instant account deposit but I find Peanut Labs ends up being more time manageable and less likely to get kicked out of Surveys.

I redeemed 500 e-miles into AS on June 6. They arrived on July 4. Given Randix's & Arch's posts above, it seems they post in batches on the 4th of every month.

I think those 5-point partner 'surveys' have disappeared. I haven't seen one in several weeks...might be the end of e-miles.
