Was yours done on a manual form, or through DBS' online rewards portal?

Amex: < 10 minutes in my experience

Chase: Recently transferred 50k; *edit* posted after about ~30 hours (and on a Saturday).

Any DP on Hilton transfer time? I really hope it is not the 30 days they suggest it may take; I transferred for ~12k KF yesterday to top off what I need for reward and will need to post before devaluation 😬.

Amex New Zealand (MR) - transfer within 5 minutes, immediately on account
conveniently SQ seemed to have loaded a sudden block of award space for the 2nd SIN-AKL flight in Dec/Jan so nabbed immediately (esp given it’s peak season!)

Two transfers last week from US-based cards:
Chase UR took a few hours (between four and 12, I didn't check during my night);
AmEx MR went through in minutes.

CapitalOne. Instant. Was able to lock down awards just before the recent, midnight price increase (July 5, if memory serves).

A related question: Is there an annual limit of how many points you can transfer from either Amex or Chase UR??

No. I suppose if you transferred a huge number (into the millions), you might get either the bank or SQ reviewing your account to make sure nothing shady (i.e., someone attempting to broker/sell award tickets) was going on, but other than that there's no specific limit.

Everyday? Every time I transfer from Chase it seems to take forever, especially when I have an urgent booking I need to make!

Thank you! One other question, if there is award availability, does SQ allow you to hold an award redemption and give you the time to transfer the necessary points (either Amex or Chase UR)? It would be an Advantage Award (not Saver), and given the large points I would need (450k), it is obviously preferable to have the award on hold before transferring the points irrevocably.

I think this one is a pretty big YMMV, as you may see conflicting reports if you search some other SQ threads for this subject. Reaching a live agent on the phone who is a redemption agent seems to be a difficult feat in and of itself - then you'd need to convince them of your request to hold. That said, I was able to get a hold a few months ago for a saver award. Good luck!
