Interesting, please share in a DDMS comment.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Amex only reads DDMS, but not reddit and ddf?

I'm not talking about Amex reading the site. I'm talking about an influx of transfers that causes them to take a look at things closer.

Do you think ppl are transferring more now than before the devaluation?

I'm sure they plan on an influx of transfers, they are having a 25% bonus now.

A lot of factors may trigger a more manual review, including:
1. High number of transfer requests in a very short period of time
2. Multiple transfer requests from individual accounts
3. High number of small transfer requests
4. Whistleblower

It's very possible more people are transferring now than before the ratio was devalued. How often have you transferred points to iberia before?

sounds like they're reusing code from last promo. That code didn't include the %20 deval

Do you guys think this glitch will be fixed before the end of the week? I'm still trying to decide how many MR I want to transfer to Avios. My Iberia and BA accounts are already linked. I have 100K MR and don't have any immediate plans to transfer MR to any other programs.

Of course no one knows for sure, but people who have been playing this game for longer might have more of an idea.
