Just talked to AA customer service and she looked into and told me that anything that posts to your account after 6/25/10, the bonus will post later as a stand alone bonus. She said it could take up to 7 days, but it will post.

Thanks! I was just coming in here to ask why I got 25000 miles from transferring but no bonus?!

I have a similar situation as others where my first batch posted with bonuses and my second SPG round did not. Im not worried and it should clear up within a week. FWIW my hyatt also posted bonus-less.

Look at your own transfer numbers. 40K becomes 50K just as your 60K became 75K.

Question Is it too late?

Been offline for a few weeks. Is it too late to take advantage of this offer? I could not tell if

1) the miles need to post to AA by June 30 (tomorrow) or if the request simply needed to be made by tomorrow

or

2) if because the miles post every Monday, it was effectively too late.



If it is too late, I might wait out another promo. Do these occur that often?

Thanks.

Not too late. See previous posts for details.

I spoke with AA customer service rep earlier who read me the language on the offer: "As long as the request is made before 11:59 cdt on 30Jun the bonus will apply." I transfered 40k from my account today.

Fortunately, it isn't too late - because this is my first time to see AA giving a bonus on the transfer of hotel points.

A quick reminder...

For anyone considering transferring SPG points to AA miles, this is the last day to get the 35% bonus.

I also want to say thanks to Starwood and AA. I was able to get the timing right (with about 19 hours to spare) and converted 920,000 SPG points to AA miles during this promotion. I got an astonishing 1.68 AA mile per SPG point for all of these. That's way way better than I thought I'd ever see.
