Logic has never had anything to do with IHG and the Priority Club game. I have no idea what the term "inclusive" means in this context, but it doesn't mean a turn of the month stay counts for stays in that previous month. There are of course internal rules to cover these things ....

In the same way that a stay over New Year's eve, 31 December/ January 01, credits to the new year not the old one; 30 April / 01 May will NOT credit to the current Accelerate programme. So it should of course credit to the new May-starting Accelerate programme, though it might just drop into limbo

Now what happens where the turn of the month night is the last night of a longer stay, I don't know. And I'm pretty sure, PC being what it is, that the rule has been flouted. But rule it is, confirmed countless times by agents.
