Hyatt points to RR points question
We have a decent amount of Hyatt points, and wanted to top off our RR account to get the companion pass. We did the Chase 50k bonus, and now wanted to transfer the rest from Hyatt. Stupid question: If I transfer 100k Hyatt points to RR, do I get 12k bonus points, or just 6k. In the terms, it only mentions the bonus for 50k transfers, and doesn't seem to specifically say that 50k=30k, 100k=60k. Anybody have experience transferring large amounts of Hyatt to RR? Thanks in advance.

I know time is running short if they're wanting points to count towards the companion pass (must post by 3/31) but I think it worth mentioning if they try to do it in two chunks, it might be worthwhile to wait for one to post before attempting the other. There have been reports of delays when attempting two back to back. Southwest and or Hyatt are getting confused and thinking they already initiated the transfer not realizing there were two. Some of these delays are reported to be pretty lengthy and only fixed after multiple phone calls to both Hyatt and Southwest.

I do this all the time in one chunk, no need for 2 transactions. This is the first year that the 12k bonus showed up without me having to call to follow up on it.

I began my Hyatt 50,0000 points to SWA 30,000 points transfer on a Monday night and the points posted exactly one week and a day later so I'm in agreement that the transfers are routinely posted on Tuesdays.

I transferred the points on 3/13/17 and it has still not posted onto my SW account. I just called Hyatt and they informed that the transaction took place yesterday and hence I should see the points on SW soon.
Is anyone on the same boat and how do I know if Hyatt is telling the truth ?
