I have 16 nights in March to book for business and will hold off on booking those until I find out how this resolves. Like a previous poster, I spend a lot more than the 4 bucks that IHG lost in the bar every night of a stay. Last week spending ~125 in food and drinks across 2 nights after the 2 $10 vouchers that I was comped at check-in.
+1 for this post.
To be honest, I think doing one quick repeatedly is gaming the system. One per language is a little more gray.
As for all the points we've all earned on promos etc. For all the promos I put in I heard about the code on a "chat forum." PC clearly allows this to happen and is aware of it.
My account is still locked and if they take away more than the 1K from the quick I will not be happy and be zipping it right back to Hilton.
