This would unlikely be the cause.

So how does this work if say you redeem some DBS points and XYZ hotel points on the same day. Your DBS points are in KF the next day, the hotel points show up a week later, but both transfers show up in KF with the same date listed (even though as mentioned the miles were credited a week apart).

I transferred from SPG on 6/25 and it took 14 days to credit. :-/ Hopefully yours came through by now.

Yes, so post fact, it is difficult to check how long it took to get the points transferred in from DBS or XYZ hotel points

I transferred both Amex MR and Chase UR points around 1 PM (CDT) on 7/15. The Chase points posted by 8:30 PM same day and the Amex points were there by 6:30 AM today. Suites class ticket already booked!

Transfered US Amex MR points yesterday, and the email came late last night. Points were there in less than 24 hours.

Of course, as per the Wiki, I may have gotten lucky on the Thursday timing.

And, the seats I wanted were available and the flights are booked!

I put an Amex transfer request in on last Friday night at about 9:00 Eastern US time, and they hit some time Sunday afternoon. Never got an email though.

14,750 for a one-way in J SIN-DPS seems like a pretty good deal to me.

Reading more carefully, my email probably only came because the transfer was my first Krisflyer transaction:

Thank you for making your first transaction as a KrisFlyer member.

From Chase UR, this was on a Saturday, I submitted it at 3 pm EST, and later that night (around 9 or 10 pm) it's already in my KF account. I was even able to redeem an award flight right away, so it's not "held" or anything like that. This was all done online.

Transferred some SPG points and some Chase UR points last night; the Chase points arrived 19 hours later. No idea when I'll see the SPG points.

To update this, two separate SPG transfers—one from Friday, one from Sunday—showed up at the same time on Tuesday.

not sure if this has been mentioned (I am lazy):
HSBC UK - 2 days - 3 days
Citibank Indonesia - 4 days (told it will be 3 weeks)
BCA Co-brand Indonesia - range from the day of the billing or even as long as 10 days.

Annoying...
This is annoying.

I transferred miles from my Citi PM Singapore to KrisFlyer on 30 July 2014. As of today 04 Aug 2014 at 8pm. The miles are not in yet. I called Citibank 2x and they ask me to wait till 06 Aug.

On 12 July 2014 I transferred miles from Citi Rewards Card to Asia Miles. The miles reach Asia Miles on 13 July 2014 after 7pm.
