After using same card more than 4 times in 1 day, the system locks up the card pretty much. So I now spread out the card usage.
Many of the problems listed here have been there and done that in the thread from 2010. That was the best share promo.
The terms have changed for the worse; at least they are better than 2011/12 when they allowed only ONE bonus for both the giver or recipient. So if A did a share to B both could not get a bonus again.

Same, I did old to new and it got stuck. I did old to old and it was instant. I ended up not transfering and just booking a ticket. I hope the transaction will fail because I have 0 miles now and I get a refund. What a mess.
Last night I attempted to transfer from an old account to 2 new accounts. I used two different cards, both returned "pending" results after transaction but authorizations were placed on the cards.
I have been checking every hour or so and the miles have now moved out of my account and into theirs. However, there have been no email confirmations.
Both new accounts were opened on the 1st of October.
The peculiar part though, I transferred from and old to old several days ago with instant results and saw the pending charge on my card. As of yesterday, the pending charge has vanished (miles stayed). I assume it will come back at some point (couldn't be that lucky).

I did a transfer from old to new (created on 9/30) yesterday around 10pm. Charge is shown pending on my credit card but miles have not posted yet...hopefully it will come in!

Yes, seems to mainly be transactions TO a new account, not sure I have seen any reports on transactions from a new account, which is relevant to me as my last transaction once the To new account succeeds (hopefully in time) is back to two old accounts.

I did a transfer from the new account back to the old account after receiving the shared miles earlier today. The transaction did not go through immediately and is probably pending. Hopefully it will post later on Tuesday.

I've been juggling between two accounts (both more than a year old) trying to roll up a starting balance of 6k points. All the points were transferred and posted immediately until the last transaction, where I was transferring 44k points with bonus of 38k (because of the limit). The points didn't get transferred but my credit card has been charged...it's been over an hour already, I'm nervous. Anyone had a similar situation?
This system is very sketchy. I'm never doing this again

I'm still on the fence about doing this offer. Anyone buying miles to hold until the program merges with AA?

So for those failed transactions did you try to transfer and pay again? And did those charges for the failed transactions drop for you?
