Site back up - final share completed - instant. Happy to sit back and see if a merger happens now or not - the points are for travel in 2015 and I don't care which alliance its with.
 
Just transferred 50,000 from my account to my best mate, then forwarded that 100,000 onto both of my parents accounts so 3 x 50,000 transactions.

All got through immediately and using the same credit card details for all three.

Got 2 more transactions to go, might do them tomorrow.

Already have a Aus-USA J trip and a AUS to Guam trip on the horizon.

My parents got back from AUS to Europe return using these points too for their first J experience I organised. They can't stop thanking me!

Bloody hell I love these promos.
 
Shared this morning and nothings come through yet, they were old accounts to new accounts. Previous old account sharing was instant. Hopefully it's just a week end delay..
 
I made an account on October 2 at 10:30 PM - any idea whether I'll be able to share to that account at 10:30 PM tonight? As in, is the 12 day rule general and based on the time zones of USDM itself or specifically enforced?

Rang US Airways, they guy said they're inundated with transactions since his shift and to expect a delay. He's had lots of calls from ppl asking.
 
I just shared 50K from my account to +1's, and then 50K from +1's account to mine....increasing each account by 50k (100K total); points were deducted and posted immediately with each of the 2 transfers. Paid with 28 degrees MC.

Well I'm still wating for a transaction done just after midnight Saturday (12 days and a few hours for the new account). Not looking good when I still have a couple more transactions to go.
 
Just shared 14,000+14,000 to the good lady and then back to my account, thus maxing out my 50,000 bonus.

Thinking white Christmas 2014...
 
I'm not sure if new account is the only factor but yes it would appear to be one factor in those that require manual intervention.
My delayed transaction cleared this morning but still have a couple to go, how about everyone else - have their transfers cleared?

FWIW, as posted yesterday my transfers were instant however my receipts of transactions only came through this morning so around 18hrs after the transfer...
 
Just so we know what time we are looking at, my understanding of PT (Pacific Time) is that this is 18 hours behind AEST so we would have until 6pm Wednesday to do this, any agree/disagree?

I did 4 transfers today. No email confirmation but the transaction did show 50,000 + 50,000 so I am hoping they post. Still haven't been deducted from my account either...
 
Well, it is only to 17:59 AEST (SYD) only, not quite 18:00

But yes, Wed 16th SYD time is correct.

Let us know if you have success. I tried a transfer last night and still showing no change in either account.

Probably unsurprising, but things are a bit slower at the pointy end.

Share put through at 11:30pm last night just went through. Immediately shared again but nothing so far. Hopefully I'll have a chance to put one more through tomorrow leaving me with 100,000 in my account and 50,000 in SWMBO's account.
