They should post on the next closing date.

I'm wondering the same thing. Despite pushing over $5000 through my Blue Cash Preferred in the last few months, the last time I had any cash back dollars post on the web site was in December.  The account has never been past-due or in any other situation that would warrant withholding the points.  My March statement just posted today, so I'm going to wait a couple of days and see if anything changes, but I'm not holding my breath.

Mine were pending until I received my 2nd statement. I would call and ask.

Thanks for the heads up. Definitely keep that in mind when booking for travel next year.

I was wondering the same thing. My first BCE statement just posted so I will expect my rewards to start pouring in in a couple of months then.

Bonus points will post faster, while spending earned points have the extra statement cycle lag.

Like others have said, AMEX reward lags two months. This is because AMEX want you to pay the bill before giving you reward.
