IMHO, they would - certainly I had probably 2 stays in 2nd half 2003 (both I'm sure @ 4Points Darling Harbour) and they posted to both my QFF and HH's.

It's only ones booked and prepaid through TA's that I believe don't qualify. I learnt after boooking/prepaying a 7 night package and a 4 night Conference last year through my TA (this was before I had really discovered the benefits of FT).

If only I'd listened to the Sheraton Worldwide Res agent - certainly wouldn't have done my nights last year any harm either!!

Now my TA still gets the benefits (I put her TIDS number in all commissionable bookins) and that ensures I get the credit in my hotel programs!
