You can log into your Topguest account and click the orange "See My Rewards" button on the left. This will show your check-in history and a tally of your earned points.

I guess I will settle for whatever they post to my account...

Only 100 points were posted to my PC account, although I currently have a lot more showing up in my Topguest account. There must have been a cutoff date for the actual points posting.

IPAD?
I do not use a smart phone. I do use an Ipad. There is a HI 1mile from my home. Can I download the foursquare app to my iPad and do this?

If I'm not mistaken, I believe only the iPad 3G has a gps, so if you have the wifi only version, it might not find your location accurately.

FYI... My first PC deposit occurred 6.5 weeks after I started checking in. I got two separate deposits on the same day. According to an email I received from Topguest, deposits should happen on a monthly basis from now on.

Is it per calendar day or 24 hour period? Just started yesterday, so does this mean if I checked in at the Crowne Plaza yesterday evening, can I check in again at any point today or do I have to wait until tonight?
And to confirm, it's one check in per day for IHG, or one per property?

I don't know about the calendar day or 24-hour period since I always check in on the way to work and pass the hotel at approximately the same time every day.

How does Topguest know my PriorityClub account? Do I just save my text number to the textbox? I checked in via the FourSquare mobile site by just searching for a nearby Holiday Inn. If I actually start getting points, I'm going to create a program to automatically do it every day. Wonder how long I can get away with it?

So far I received 250 PCR points in two accounts. I wonder how often are they going to post rewards. I average 250 a week in both family accounts. Not a bad thing for 5 min work a day. By the way, you can add TG on the Award Wallet now, but not if you signed up using Twitter or Facebook.

I had an account previously. The settings page doesn't give you much feedback or information on linking them.

You can double-check that your check-ins are being reported by clicking on the "Rewards" tab at Topguest. It will show you a list of your check ins broken down by hotel property, date, and method of checking in.
I think as long as you see your check ins there, they will eventually get credited to your PC account.
