How long is it taking for Starpoints to turn up in UA Mileage Plus account, when doing a regular transfer? I check impatiently every day, it's been weeks... oh wait, only six days. 
I've learned a lot about UA MP + Starwood Starpoints from recent reading -- thanks FTers for all the info on direct deposit, etc. I'll post some pertinent thread URLs since this is the "Master Thread:"

UA - Transferred 1 Sept 2008, Posted 13 Sept 2008
UA - Transferred 1 Sept 2008, Posted 13 Sept 2008. Although this was a small number of poitns transferred ( to keep UA miles from expiring) and no 25% bonus involved. Just FYI

How long for points to transfer to United Mileage Plus
While I know it is not a good deal, I needed to top up my UA account in order to claim an award.
Any recent experiences on exactly how long this takes?
Thanks!

United Miles to SPG points??
I've read a lot of articles about transferring SPG to UA.
But what about the reverse? I have a lot of UA miles and would like to transfer them to my SPG account. Yet... I can't find a good link for this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Michael

Gaobest, try FT's own forum The Coupon Connection. Expect to offer 25--30K UA or any miles for 20K SPG.

On tCC someone would probably give U 16--20K SPG for 30K AA! Maybe someone who has 35K DC which s/he intends to convert to 41K AA could convert it to your SPG instead, while U issue an award ticket for him using your AA!
