Transferred 70K from UR Tues about 11pm PDT, and another 30K from Amex yesterday about noon. Nothing. Chase have now gone outside their stated time of 2 business days for the transfer. Fortunately I have my itinerary on hold or I would be fuming.

I'm still waiting. The Chase web site says normally within 2 business days, but sometimes it could take up to 7 days. Looks like I'm going to be 7 day or longer one.. By chance will your points post at a certain time during the day or it could happen anytime?

Thanks for the update. I'm still waiting as well. My Chase transfers typically post in the mornings or mid mornings, SIN time.

SQ is the primary program I transfer my URs to and this is the longest I have ever had to wait for them to post.

Holds are great but when you transfer on 9/4 and the flight you need departs on 9/16, you start to get pretty nervous.
