I am actually more ok with the BRG being denied for a non-sense reason (I occasionally BRG IHG) than for the time lapse. I think 6 days is unacceptable, I had already moved on. My main problem is that I was emailed saying they would get back to me within 48 hours when it actually took 5 days.
I find a quick email or phone call to follow up within the 48 hours will get the BRG resolved. I agree that 5 days is too long to wait when BW promises a turn around time of 48 hours. Better luck in the future. My travels take me to some very nice places, but I also travel to out of the way places in rural Arkansas where a Best Western or Days Inn is the best available accommodations within a 30 minute drive.
