I received my redemption code this morning after a two day wait. It does suck in how apple implemented the redemption process as it leaves people hanging without an email confirmation saying a code was on the way. Seems like a last minute thing apple tried setting up.
Got a tip for us?

Just got mine, took about 47 hours. Just after I posted here, I got it (as per usual). So post here and rage and then it will conveniently arrive right afterwards. 
Now to see if I can do a clean install...

Anything to do with not using our iCloud email addresses perhaps?

With all you guys getting your codes now hope mine comes through soon !
~52 hours here. Thought I would see mine but they don't through the order as when they received them so who knows when I will see mine.
My Serial number now shows up as "already used", so I am unable to resubmit their form. Other than that...:
50 hours and still waiting.
Still no code, no confirmation mail, no nothing.

Finally just got mine, and my boss got his, about 10 min apart. He did his 24 hours AFTER me... no rhyme or reason it seems.

I am a couple hours ahead of you and nothing either.
I feel much better now
The up-to-date program seems to be unavailable in your country.
Did the page accept your street address with correct country? (it shouldn't do this based on terms and conditions but I wouldn't exactly be astonished if if did).
Taking the path of least resistance, you could set up a new iTunes/App Store account in one of the valid countries? (Actual address is never checked)
only took 53 hours from my first request on Wednesday morning but my original (and ONLY) request has been approved and just got both emails, and am downloading Mountain Lion!
thankfully i have an amazing internet connection and that is going to take under 20 minutes in total, so hopefully i'll be in a new OS very shortly!!
best of luck to everyone still waiting - not to fret though, they are coming!
