Just got a similar email. This applies for the Americas only, excluding Quebec.
Triple Points, Triple Pancakes on the Weekend

Dear Christian,

Book a 3+ night, weekend stay at Holiday Inn Express August 1 - September 30 and earn up to 3x the points (and 3x the pancakes with our free, hearty breakfast). Stay 3+ nights during the week and you’ll get 2x the points.

That’s right—more points, more pancakes. And of course, free Wifi and a great night’s sleep.

Are you ready to Be The Readiest™? Here’s your chance.


Looks like this is a targeted promo. Good for me because I have completed every promo IHG has given me so far this year!

Pack your bags…there's 5,000 additional bonus points waiting for you when you stay by 30th September. And even better, if you book your stay using a Bonus Points Package, you’ll get a total of 6,000 points on top of the bonus points you’ll receive from booking a Bonus Points Package.

Register now and start earning.
</snip>

However, when I try to register I get an error: The code you entered is invalid for your membership. Please check the qualification requirements for your country, region or programme.
Checked the fine print and the only restriction I see is "intented for original recipient only".

Anyone also got this? Any luck registering?

Yes, but when I tried to register, the message said 'According to our records, you have already registered for this promotion', which I obviously hadn't. It also told me to check the 'my offer status' page to check for which promotions I had been registered. Only the current Accelerate appears on that list and nothing changes if I refresh the page or log out and back in again.

The Q3 promo is now live - I tried the URL over the weekend, no joy, so it must have only just gone out!

See the dedicated thread here:

I have the same thing in my account, also with no details and no terms available. (I do have the co-brand card.)

Exactly the same garbage for me as last time - which I ignored completely in the hope they'd get the message. Apart from the opening bonus for September (3K) and the first stay (2K), all I have is a repeating series of 'Stay X more nights for X,000' - nothing stackable beyond the first night.

On the plus side it means that I can now cancel my IHG Premium card with a clear conscience - knowing full well that Accelerate is worthless.
