Transfer from Amex MR was instant.
Chase UR took about 36 hours or so.
Transferred 4 times from Capital One - 1st (16k), 3rd (1k), and 4th (3k) were instant, but 2nd (98k) is still pending and its been over 2 weeks. I called Capital One and they claim SQ is holding up the miles, but its impossible to get someone over the phone or chat.

Transfer times for mid-March 2022:
* DBS HK: 2 days
* HSBC HK: 7-8 days (did two batches on a Sat and Sun, both hit account the following Monday. Not sure if this means they still do Monday batch transfers?)
* Citi HK: 1 day
* Citi USA: 1 day
* Marriott: 1 day (very few, did not hit the 5k bonus miles so maybe that helped it transfer more quickly)

Does the amount of points transferred change the time to show up in the account?
literally did a 300k transfer and then needed 30k more so I transfers the second amount 10 min later. The second transfer showed up the same day, just hours later and the original large transfer still hasn’t shown.. now on day 4. Singapore is so frustrating

I'm entirely guessing here, but maybe larger mileage transfers like that (300k or so) go through some extra validation to ensure sender matches KF account owner. SQ is quite strict on the program rules around that. YMMV.

My guess is multiple transfers with one of them large, sort of like cc fraud. I have made numerous large transfers and never have issues beyond current lead times.

KF Miles
How long did it take for the second batch to come through? I transferred 70k, then 8k through chase at the same time. The 8k posted sometime through the night, about 36 hours after my transfer. The second transfer has yet to hit my account.
Has anyone had issues with making multiple transfers from Chase in a single day?
Over the weekend, I transferred 50K points, and then 25K points to Krisflyer from Chase. The 25K points showed up in my Kris Flyer account today, but not the 50K. I'm a little worried because I transferred the 50K points first, so would have thought that would have shown up first.

Transferred from Amex last night and miles are still not in my account (it's been more than 12 hrs)
Edit 1: it's been 24 hours now, miles are still not in my Singapore account
Edit 2: miles were deposited into my KF account from US Amex 30 hrs after the transfer

Not many folks probably transferring from Brex but thought I'd offer a DP.
From two accounts, transferred Sunday evening 6pm (USA East Coast) and arrived Monday morning 6am. So 12 hours or less.
