And note this could be why a few folks might have had an SPG number that conflicts with an existing MR #. Marriott could have been told that all SPG #s were 11 digits (i.e. no conflicts with MR #) and no one thought that there might be a few SPG members with 9 digits (possibly from a legacy system like the old Sheraton program) until now. And so they have to fix that problem before they merge on the 18th.

Just a thought.
It was ITT Sheraton when I signed up. Not sure if the number changed going to SPG. But since I use LastPass and my email to access my account, the number is the least of my concerns.

And my 9-digit MR numbers starts with a 0, so is it really 8?
