CP Qualification
Hey Guys,
So I signed up for the 50k personal Chase card and the 50k Business card in early December. My 50k points posted for the personal card today. Do you all think I will have a leg to stand if I try to get them to count the points for 2012/2013 qualification being it is 3-4 days prior to the end of the year? I understand if they don't, just wondered if their customer support is understanding.

Have you spent anything on your Business card yet? When is that likely to close & post? Maybe you could call Chase and ask for that to close tomorrow with the hope that those points post in 2011 so that (assuming you have 10k CPQPs from another source) you could have the CP for 2012? I'm not sure they'll do it; but, Barclay's let me move my statement closing date up on my first US Airways CC statement (enabling me to get an additional hit during the USGS - FYI - Barclay's, at the time of my request, incorrectly told me at the time that it wouldn't take effect until the 2nd statement).

I business card doesn't close until February for some reason. Stupidly, I moved the personal card up to the 8th of the month to try and get the points posted while the gift cards were on sale, but they didn't post until today. Oh well, I am thankful for the 100,000+ points I have (or will have).

I know this was before 1/1/12 and it's in 2012 that it's speculated the 50k points might start to post differently, but just for the most recent data point, did your 50k points at the end of Dec post as CPQP? I'm assuming yes or you wouldn't be asking about this, but just wanted to double check. TIA!

Oh yeah, I guess I should point out also I have my bonus / card backwards. I applied for the personal card first, moved my statement close date to the 8th of the month, applied for the business card like 4-5 days after the personal card. The business card closes on February 8th or something (which I didn't change) and I have already received those points (12/28/2011). The personal card which I did change and got first, I have yet to receive those points although I already had a statement close (12/8/2011). That statement included the points for the credit card charges (58points for $58.00 in charges) but didn't include the bonus (50k).

Can any one confirm what types of points they have had post in 2012 so far and if they did indeed count toward the comp pass (CPQP)? My first statement ends late Jan and wondering if the 50k bonus pts will be CPQP. I can't get another RR credit card bonus right now but do have other program pts (focused on Choice, but have others) I'd transfer over into RR if I knew the transferred pts and the 50k bonus will all be CPQP.

Great news! Ymmv
Ok, so I called Southwest Customer Support (2149320333) and spoke to [redacted]. She is going to back-out my points that posted on 12/28/2011 and then post them today 1/5/2012 and count them towards my CPQP 2012/2013! This is great news for anybody in or near my situation. It took calling the customer service twice with two different people before it worked.
**Update. Points are now posted as CPQP for 2012/2013. Now just wanting on the other 50k to post and I will be 95% towards CP!

If after of couple of days of hitting 110K and you are not showing CP status, call CS and ask or PM one of our resident FT CS folks, southwestgabe and southwestwhit are the ones I remember, but there are four of them, to look into it.
Back in the old days of 100 credits it was instantaneous. Oh, well, the price of progress.

Also, you do not have to call in to nominate your companion, you do it online now. You might have to call in to change the person but not to set it for the first time.
