Really sorry to hear that bad news,try Amb line again and ask for a Supervisor

Many initial Amb Line helpline operators are not that great when it comes to RA eligibility.
If you are are not showing RA, thyen the operator stupidly reads scripted replies and parrotts something like "you need more stays / you have not qualified at this mmoent" etc etc

You need ring up the Amb Line, and then say you need to speak to a supervisor and then you ask the supervisor for a manual nights count.
(Did you have some nights manually adjusted to qual-stay after failing to post correctly ? Such manually adjusted nights are ignored by RA auto-counter... ONLY a Supervisor manual count overcomes that issue)

The Manual count is always for the 365nights to the day you contact the supervisor. At least then you know if IHGs count agrees with your own !

Once Supervisor confirms your count as 79/30/3 then ask why you have not yet made Royal Ambassador status as you know the previously published 60/20/3 was increased from March2016 ... BUT you know IHGers who are being made RA at 75/30/3 which you have already exceeded

Let us know how you get on
