I had bcbs of alabama - PPO - but not bellsouth. They approved within the week. Very nice and pleasant and i called everyday and I think they actually approved me the day they got the papers. Just took awhile for my doctor to send it to them. Good Luck.

I have BCBS of Alabama, but not through Bellsouth. It took them two weeks to show that they had actually received the fax, but after that it took approx a week for the approval. I called every day to see whether it had been received/approved yet.
