RR Account Processing - Happy New Year 2018

Those of you that are new to all of this will likely panic. Relax. Things will eventually work themselves out.

In recent years, it's run pretty quickly compared to the good ol' days. This is the first try on the new IT system, so YMMV just like the rest of us.

Those of us that have been thru it all before............well, you know

That was quick.... 16+/- hours and things appear to be back to "normal" (insert comment here)

Certainly doesn't mean that everyone's account is complete, but it's impressive progress compared to some years in the past.

My status has updated but my points haven't posted from both of my Southwest cards with statement close dates of 1/2/2018. It has now been 3 days since statements were closed. Any idea if it usually takes this many days for them to post around year-end? I recall points usually posting 1 or 2 days after statement close dates.

FYI, i'm in the same boat. My statement cut on 1/1/2018, and points haven't shown up yet. I'm hoping it'll all start flowing next week.

Update: Points posted on 1/7/2018 for my statement that closed 1/2/2018 for both of the Southwest cards.

Friend who wants to use CP for a flight on Tuesday (16-Jan) says that although Chase sent 110,000+ points to SWA on Jan 01, his account still doesn't show the points or a CP. He called Dallas and reports he was told nothing can be done; whatever happens or doesn't is how it will be.

Are UR transfers CPQP-qualifying? I was under the impression that they are not.

My reading of the original post is that Chase sent the points as sign up bonuses from SWA credit cards. You are correct that UR transfers are not CPQP.

AsiaTraveler is correct: UR not part of the equation; the situation involves only RR Visa signup bonus (and spend) points.

I apologize for my misinterpretation. Thanks for the clarification!
