January 2010 e500s and Q1 CR1s not posted yet?

I normally should have had a round of e500's post to my account this Saturday, and need a couple for a flight on Wednesday/Thursday...

Is anyone else getting theirs?

I remember that the January CR-1 sweeps had been an issue in the past, but don't remember if that problem also affected the e500's...

If not should I cancel my upgrade request now?

I should have had 8 500s post today, no dice though. Sounds like it's a continuation of the lax CR-1 posting.

Both my e500s and my CR1s (for Q4 2009) posted on Sunday, a day after they were expected.

Good to hear... Will check tomorrow, otherwise, back to Economy I go!

With the e500's going away in March, it seems that timeliness of sweeps would be important!

It's supposed to happen sometime in Q2. That could mean any time from April to June.

Are we not earning e-500's anymore?

I am currently sitting at roughly 16,000 EQM/bis on UA metal for the year thus far, and have had a 10,000+ EQM/bis balance for 2-saturday-sweep periods now, yet have earned nary an e-500 for this painful feat. I realize that e-500's are disappearing, but I thought that we were still earning them until the 2nd quarter, correct? Anybody else having this problem, or is an e-mail to 1KVoice in order? Thanks.

Some reference - http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/unite...ep-happen.html.

Looks like Jan sweeps do tend to get delayed a bit.

Upgrades

My e500's for Q4 travel posted in late December. My CR1's for Q4 have not. I think the reason is my Q3 travel that triggered the e500's was the last couple of days in September so they posted the first Saturday in October. The CR1's didn't show up until November. I think the system thinks I have already received my Q4 CR1's. I'm going to wait until the first Saturday in February and if I don't get them I will call about it.

January e500s and Q1 CR1s not posted yet?

I have over 20,000 UA BIS in Jan. RDM & EQM & EQS have all posted, but I think I'm expecting 8 e500s and 2 CR1s, but they don't seem to be posting.

Has anyone seen e500s or CR1s post in January yet?

When should I expect them to post?

My last travel was on Jan 22nd.

Last year I seem to recall the January numbers posting at the first February sweep. Reason I was given last year (emailed 1KVoice to inquire) was that UA uses January to finish up posting December mileage, process Elite Choice awards, and (now this year) Elite Choice Year End awards.

Didn't someone post that using e500's is an option in the drop down for upgrading until March 31. April 1, it's not an option. I suppose that might not be an indicator, but it makes for a decent guess.

No e500's this morning. Sucks that I have to burn CR1's for my last travel of Q1 this coming week.

Same here... but I just called the 1K desk as I am traveling tomorrow and told them I would normally just buy extra e500s, but that makes little sense at this point since they are going to be useless soon... especially with so many posting.

Was put into a mini conference call with the 1k desk and MP Customer Service. They informed me told that they wouldn't be posting until Feb 6th this year, as usual due to wrapping up of last years stuff behind the scenes. I was then asked when my travel was, tomorrow, and they deposited the extra number of e500s right away without me even asking! ^^

Thanks United!

Hope this helps some people and it is worth calling the 1K desk if you have an upcoming flight and don't want to use up a CR1.

Cheers,
