Google says it takes 5 days to purge an alias and set it up independently, is that an issue?

Google says that it can take up to 5 days to purge a google apps alias domain before it can be set up as an independent account but we’ve seen it automatically happen much faster.  If you have a Google Apps for Business Account we recommend you call phone support and request they they purge the alias sooner.

Note: You will need your customer PIN when calling Google. To locate your Customer PIN, follow these steps:

2. From the blue menu bar, click Support.
3. Look for your Customer PIN.
