In some cases, Starwood does. If I set up their Airline Direct Deposit to Air Canada, I get two points per dollar. If I just give them my Aéroplan number, it's 1,000 miles at anything other than a Four Points.</font>
Interesting. When I stayed at a Sheraton, they originally credited half the points (ie. 750) for my stay, compared to the usual Qantas amount. When I contacted them and questioned it, they told me it was a processing error and it become the usual 1500. (not bad for a one-night stay)

And, they have kept me at Gold level again, even though they don't know I've stayed at any of their hotels in the last year.
