It most definitely was a hit, no intervention required.

BW posting time

I was curious regarding posting best western transfer - I did one last week. How much time would it take to reel this one in?

Quick question for those who have transferred Wyndham points to multiple USDM accounts:
Did it go through and was it recognized by US as a hit?

Never Mind, I think I got the answer:

Anyone do a Hyatt transfer? How long does it take? Just did one earlier this week and no miles yet.

Can you transfer PriorityClub points to other people's PriorityClub account? Or directly to someone else's US Airways account? Thanks

Yes, you can transfer PC points to another account at the price of $5/1000points. Names have to match for a transfer to US DM, see first post.

It's strange, people were pretty adamant that you couldn't, and then someone reported that it worked; I'd be interested in more first hand reports.

I tried to transfer points to a friend's US DM account. Did NOT work. Points came back after long discussions with PC CS (rules violations). I had to transfer them to his PC account so he could redeem them for US DM. Full stop.

If you don't believe, try it yourself. I'm done with PC and the trouble this activity caused to my account!

For those without Choice points but participating in the Amex MR program, Choice just recently became a transfer partner, and there's currently a 50% bonus running on transfers from MR to Choice so you could get the 5000 Choice points for a transfer of 4000 MR points (transfers are in multiples of 1000): http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/ameri...-6-2011-a.html. As thread notes, promotion ends 11/6.

Good for those who don't participate in Choice Privileges (although a stay at a $100/night property with the 4X points promo that ends 11/3 booked with the mobile app at an extra bonus of 1000 would accomplish the same end).

Hypothetically speaking:

If one had access to 2 different e-Rewards accounts, is it possible to redeem 4,000 Choice points in one and 1,000 Choice points in another and send them both to the same Choice account? I know there is some type of limit on sending Choice points from the same e-Rewards account (one per quarter), but I wasn't sure if there was a limit on the same Choice account being able to accept multiple transfers from e-Rewards during the same quarter.
