So I cannot for the life of me figure out why I got this 1,000 point 10% rebate all of a sudden in the past couple days.
Which in turn makes me wonder if the whole rebate posting has gone bonkers, and can result in different weird results for different people.
How do Cash and points rebates work? I'm looking at a hotel that is:
20K on points
or 15K + $40
or 10K + $70
If I book the 20K points redemption, I get 2K rebate. However, the cash and points redemptions are effectively coded as purchasing points and then redeeming points by IHG. So would I get 2K for any of the 3 scenarios? Or 2K for a points redemption, 1.5K rebate for the 15K + $40 redemption, and 1K rebate for the 10K + $70 redemption?
Thanks.
