Just signed up. Thanks!

I'm actually in the middle of a week-long stay right now. I wonder if I'll get double points for any of it?

I am just trying to make up my mind. I am 7 nights away from being Gold Elite.

When does CC resets the stayed nights info? At the end of the year ?

And also, how does it handle my stayed nights if I can't reach higher level? Just puts it back to 0 ? Or just puts back to 15 stays and asks me to start from there? I am Silver Elite right now

T & Cs say: "at participating Quorvus CollectionSM, Radisson BluŽ, RadissonŽ, Park PlazaŽ, Park InnŽ by Radisson and Country Inns & Suites By CarlsonSM hotels worldwide"

Anyone know how to tell if a particular hotel is "participating"?

No, but I'd like to know! I sent them an email via the contact form at their web site. They said they'd reply within 3 business days, or if not, then to call.

Wish they'd just post the participation list like SPG and others do...

So am I to take it from T&C wording in regards to "complete" a stay by Dec 30 that a stay starting on say Dec 29 and finishing (check out) on Jan 1 would not qualify?

Bit of a bummer if so. I will consider if it is worth tinkering with the bookings (e.g. splitting them with a second stay from Dec 30 on under my GFs name).

Would also be interested in the "participating" properties before bothering.

I got this too. Quite misleading. In my country we have a saying that goes like this: "Yes please, I'll have both". (or it's rather Winnie the Pooh that says this)
Let's see if they will comply

I guess I can stack this promo together with the 3000 points per booking from the app-promo that runs until the 16th of November. Anyone?

The promo email says :

you’ll need to book and stay between 4th November – 30th December 2014
This says/implies that bookings made before 4 Nov are not eligible. The T&Cs don't say anything, other than " Promotion is valid between November 4, 2014 and December 30, 2014".

Must reservations made before 4 Nov be cancelled and rebooked in order to qualify ?

I did not separately receive an e-mail advising of this promotion, but the link has no such requirement that only bookings made after November 4, or after registration will count towards this promotion.

Further, the terms and conditions only require that registration for this promotion be received before one checks out. Moreover, as I have noted above, the registration confirmation e-mail only states that you are now registered to earn credit towards the promotion of your choice.

Consequently, I think one has a pretty good argument that stays booked prior to the registration will count.

They confirmed that it was double points, despite the incorrect language. I signed up another member's account and the incorrect verbiage was gone.

T&C state only 20 extra points per US$

Does anyone know if we can stack this promotion with triple points for booking the Biztime3 rate? That would mean 100 points per US$

Answering myself

Had a 2-4-1 weekend stay and got double points for all except the 35% gold bonus. I had 2 rooms and both credited double points. In total a nice 15000 points (including the 3k book by App promo points) for the weekend, nice!
