Earning PC points on Topguest ('social media check in')
Does anyone know when the next lot of topguest points are due to be posted. After last stay I am 100 points short of plat, and that would take care of it nicely

I do not track it on a regularly base, but it is usually less than 10 days (the most time, they posted quite fast)

Though I am not the OP, we have a few threads on Flyertalk about Topguest as well as social media applications used by hotels.

To refere one related to Topguest:

And maybe you have a look at "our" competitor

I had two postings of topguest points on my account today. Not sure what dates they cover. I look at this as nice if you get them but I don't miss them if they don't show.

TopGuest.com Experiences
So I just signed up with Topguest.com, it hooks up through your Facebook or 4Square account and gives you 50 priority club points every time you "Check In" at a Priority Club or IHC property. Has anybody here used this service before? What are you experiences?

Most importantly: How often can I check in to these properties? If I live in a town with a Holiday Inn and a Holiday Inn Express could I check into each of them every day? Also, do I have to leave the checkins up on my facebook wall or can I erase them? How quickly does the check-in "take?"

Thanks!

This is true. However, where I have dinner at least once a week is just across from a Holiday Inn, so I'm thinking I could probably check in there while I'm at dinner.

Topguest points
Has anyone actually been able to get their points from topguest recently? My hilton ones get deposited within a couple of hours but I haven't gotten any PC ones deposited lately.

I haven't been using Topguest very long but in my experience PC points are deposited in my account every 11 days and Hilton points within just a few hours.

My PC points usually take about two weeks to post. They seem to post in batches though.
