E-Upgrade time to post?
I recently crossed from 12000 EQM to over 20000 EQM. I haven't received my 4 new e-upgrades. How long does this normally take?

Are you Premier or higher? It's not EQM's that matter, it's "butt in seat" miles on United, United Express, and Ted that count. 500 milers post on Saturdays.

Yes, I am Premier from last year. Saturdays eh... That would explain it, I crossed on Saturday.
Where is the listing for butt in seat miles? 100% of my EQM, so far, are from flying (TATLs, TCONs).

- Flights on *A partners
- Bonus EQMs from the higher fare classes (F, A, P, C, D, Z, Y, B)
- EQMs from the MP Platinum credit card
- Any EQMs earned from UA MP promos (like DEQM)
As long as all your flights were on UA metal, your EQM total all counts towards the e-500s. You should see them show up next Saturday if you just crossed a 10k boundary.

There isn't any listing that breaks down your EQM earnings - you only see the total. However, the only EQMs that don't count towards e-500s are:
- Flights on *A partners
- Bonus EQMs from the higher fare classes (F, A, P, C, D, Z, Y, B)
- EQMs from the MP Platinum credit card
- Any EQMs earned from UA MP promos (like DEQM)
