You can't. AS will block any transfers that go through--especially if the account is newly opened.

It was in my drop down.. And now it's gone. I guess I got in right under the wire. I did it 15:09 Pacific time.

Question is, will the transfer rate be lowered?

That's certainly the question. I'm sure we'll find out soon enough.

It's highly unlikely that the transfer rate will remain the same. They're obviously changing something!

I was wrong. The option to transfer from SPG to VX is back! And the transfer rate remains 1:1!!!

<br /><br />have your points arrived in VX? Mine haven't come in yet - been more than 24hours. <br /><br />How Long does it usually take ?

Not yet, I only did it less than an hour ago. I've never transferred points to VX before, but the email said up to 4-6 business days.
