The above link has all sorts of stuff that may be tracking which I do not trust. The following much shortened link works fine:

Too much deep link track from bloggers nowadays.

It's a good thing the T&Cs are archived here (and at the Loyalty Club link), because now that I have this Spring Bonus in My Offers when logged into IHG, if I click on Terms & Conditions there it just draws a content-less window! (The window just says "Terms & Conditions" and then has a "Close" button, nothing else, no actual terms & conditions!) So I had to come back here to verify that there is no restriction in the T&Cs about when you book (ie, I can book now as long as the stay itself will be within the valid promo date range).

I'm surprised no one's jumped in with this discrepancy yet.
Yesterday I clicked on the LL signup link, and received an acknowledgment supposedly for the 3000/2 nts promo.
Then today I get an email inviting me to register for the 30000/15 nts promo. Same name. ...!
OK, I've got about 12 very reasonable nights already booked for that time. (I don't see anything about needing to book during the promo period. And of course, "inclusive" means the night of 5/15, checkout 5/16 counts? Doesn't it?) Maybe I've got 13, need to count again.
So adding a few more, from other chains or a mattress run locally or whatever, should not be a problem.
But I'd like to KNOW: Which promo should I be anticipating being "rewarded" for? Saving screenshots of promo offers has become second nature to me now. Will I end up having to fight to prove this one? Sometimes, I'm getting IHG and Accor mixed up; so much following up to do.
And yes, now I click on the "your offers" and it's listed, but the T&Cs are empty, as mentioned above.
Another triumph of IHG IT...

This was the offer I got as well. For me, it's a "If I end up staying 4 nights in that time period out of necessity, it's a nice bonus". But I'm definitely not going out of my way to make it happen.
