Married Name Change - Rapid Rewards mishaps

I am in a situation.

I got married, and changed my name, and I need to update my RR account.

I have sent ALL the proper documents but the process takes an obscenely long time and I travel consistently. 

 

My Married name (on my A-list, and companion pass) Is completely in accessible until southwest changes it. 

Problem: I need to fly tomorrow, and I have come to terms with not getting to use my A list, the issue is, I need to fly my 5 year old as a companion to the job with me tomorrow and I cant add her... and southwest wont change my ticket to my maiden name so that I can use my companion pass.

 

is there ANYTHING I can do?

This has been the worst process of changing my name hands down.

Unfortunately, this is a common complaint. Try reaching out via Twitter, I find that they're much more responsive there. Good luck.
