Just sent my request in as well...hoping for a short response time. I'll update as soon as I hear back.
Finally received code and password email at 2:07 PM today. Request submitted yesterday at 9 AM. It only took 30 hours.
I applied for my code yesterday around 10am PST and until now I have not received an email. Good thing I said screw waiting and paid the $20 yesterday around 11am. Once I get my code i'll contact Apple and hopefully they'll be able to refund me the $20.
I received mine, though I bought my mac from best buy in the states last week, so I don't know if that helps.
Well, it has been about 28 hours now since I filled out my claim form. I called Apple and they told me my claim was approved, I just still haven't received the email. He said he'd resend the email to me and I've still got nothing. I'm really tempted to just buy it. Is there a definite yes or no if I buy it that I'll get my money back or not? I'd hate to buy it and receive the code minutes later and be out 20 bucks. Any way for me to find out?
Getting slightly concerned here.
So it's been almost 30 hours since I submitted my Up To Date form to Apple. It says below in small writing:
Upon receipt of your completed order form and proof of purchase, a content code for OS X Mountain Lion, redeemable on the Mac App Store, will be emailed within twenty-four (24) hours of order qualification.
So... Am I ever going to get this 'free' ML? :/

more than 24 hours and I still didn't get any email or code...
Same here......why the heck Apple takes so long for this
Im not sure if this matters but when I did my form it was on a US site rather than UK which is where Im from. I clicked 'Req your copy of ML' on the UK site but it directed me to the US one. At the one number bit i didn't fill it in cos i don't have an american number :S
I am in the 24+ club. Sent the form about 26 hours ago. Around 6PM I thought I must have done something wrong, so I tried to re-submit and received the message that my serial number was already used.
Grrr, I have been waiting for ML because I made the mistake of using the migration tool to move all the junk from my old MBP to the RMBP. I have been waiting for ML to be released so I could do a clean install.
I laughed when someone else on the forum said they were going to pay the $20 because they were tired of waiting, but that was at 1 hour, at 1 day, I am considering the options too. If I cost average it, that is only $.75/Hour.

It's been over 24 hours for me as well. I installed ML on my wife's Air while I wait. Can't wait to see it on my RMBP. I've had two responses via email. Standard 72 hour window. If it doesn't arrive, email them again. Sigh.
Omg, I just received my second redeem code for ML, because the first one "already has been used". You know what? - the second code says the exact same thing. So now I have to codes with the same problem. Apple really has to step up the level of customer service they have been given the last couple of days.
I'm calling Apple as the first thing in the morning, that's for sure.
