For anyone who was recently approved for the Southwest card with the bonus of 50,000 points - how soon after the first use and payment of the first bill did the points show up in your Southwest rapid rewards account?

My first statement was dated 9/14/11, the points were credited on 9/16/11. I did not have to pay the bill before getting the credits. The credits for October & November statements were both on the 16th.

Mine were there within a week of the first statement.
