Yea did it thinking they would post on the Monday - as the wiki indicates may happen. Sadly that doesn't seem to be the case. Possibly due to the schd main they're doing on the website? Maybe.... maybe....

Still nothing... one week later - now the award I wanted is gone. Live and learn...

I had a KF account for a while, but was only using it to look at space - I never put any miles in it.

While traveling in China, I transferred miles (via phone) from US AMEX MR on Wednesday, Aug. 26 at 7:16 a.m. China/Singapore time, which is Tuesday, Aug. 25 at 7:16 p.m. ET.

At 2:45 p.m. on Aug. 26 China/Singapore time (2:45 a.m. that morning ET) I got an email from KF thanking me for my first transaction. I checked when I read that email (about 30 minutes after that timestamp) and the miles were in my account.

Hope people find that useful.

Very helpful, since I'm in the exact same situation as you but a day later. (Had KF account for a few months, linked account and Xfered miles this morning). Have a ticket for Friday I want to book and was worried miles would not show up in time.
