For previous Marriott Visa cards I have requested, the "free night certificate" was the my first notification that I would be receiving the card. Everything else came later.
Actually, I am in the same boat as you for the "Premier" card. I can see my 2-for-1 Golf certificate as being ordered, and I have received the card, but not the free night certificate or the points. And based on the T&Cs I wasn't planning on arguing about the points, but I will probably give them a call in the next day or so to see whats up with the certificate.
