I was late to this party as well and just initiated the SPG transfer this morning. All anecdotes on here and the blogs seem to indicate that SPG>VX transfers seems to take ~24 hours. So you are taking a risk, but I think we'll be okay.

If anything, hopefully VX is just about caught up with the screenshot backlog and will confirm our enrollment quicker than those before us. Good luck!

Thank you!

Does anyone know what is going on? I basically provide the screenshot in the same style with the one on the JetBlue points match page, which is my VA Elevate account with my name and points balance.
Filed a complaint with the Department of Transportation about my denial and, unlike jetBlue, was answered THE SAME DAY.

Worst part of this whole shitshow is that, even if I am at some point approved for the promotion, my faith in jetBlue is gone and I'm too apprehensive to book what would strictly be a mileage run for the points.

I don't believe jetBlue is going to follow through and award everyone the 75,000 points as promoted. jetBlue is going to find any reason, or no reason at all, to deny awarding the points.

Got the same message as you but I had screenshots of the mobile web page. Will try again with the desktop version

Wasting government time because you feel self-entitled to free promotions, real classy. Highly doubt JetBlue is going to be missing you as a customer.

Wow, talk about fast.

Just sent in my points match request tonight at 8:50 PM.

55 minutes later, at 9:45 PM, I get a reply saying I'm registered!

Looks like all the kinks have been worked out.

It's not a waste of government time. As quoted form my correspondence with the DoT (italics mine):

This responds to your communication regarding JetBlue Airways. The U.S. Department of Transportation seeks to ensure that all airline passengers are treated fairly. Complaints from consumers are helpful to us in determining whether airlines are in compliance with our rules and to track trends or spot areas of concern that warrant further action.
So please explain to me, after some people have been confirmed in under an hour:

How is this fair?

Fulfilled every requirement of the promotion yet was denied after waiting almost 5 days. Pretty sure I'm not alone in this matter. Wait for the shitstorm that ensues when people are not awarded their 75,000 points...

(And yes, I know, life is not fair, but this is egregious.)

Did you just open your accounts and transfer them recently?

Does anyone know if you can book for both you and your wife together on one reservation or does it have to be separate reservations to count?

I think it's by account number so should be fine. But why not book separately?

I initiated my SPG>VX transfer just over 24 hours ago. Still waiting for points to show up. Will report back.

Where is everyone planning on flying? Mrs. Mumphrey and I booked DCA-BDL-DCA. Not sure what we're going to do yet, but it was only $66.10 round-trip per person. It was the cheapest flight I could find from WAS.
