​​​its not a conspiracy that Marriott are not handling it for us and brushing us off. And looking at all the other issues where they screwed customers, ain't nothing gonna happen unless you make noise. They will gladly give their customers the short end of the stick.

Telling us to stop since you weren't affected by the issue when its real money we're all spending here (regardless of how small it is relative to your point of view as it includes those who spent thousands) is pointless.[/

We've had rep confirmation that all meetings ​​​​​​booked and taking place before the merger will have old t and c honoured.

is it an IT issue? Possibly, who knows. But it doesnt matter, were losing out on benefits that we've earned every day that this isn't handled for us. For some its 'meh', for others its a 5 night $700 rack rate suite upgrade given to a PP instead.
I am affected. I have 60 nights legacy Marriott for 2018 and need to reach 75 nights to get my 10th year of combined Platinum in order to qualify for Lifetime Platinum Premier status in January.

You’ve confirmed that meetings booked and held before Aug 18 will receive elite credit as per the old T&C, which is pretty obvious to me, too. So I am assuming once Marriott gets its IT sorted, you will receive your elite credits for those meetings. All discussions to the contrary aren’t going to change the IT mess delaying that nor the ultimate outcome.

Of course it’s an IT issue. There are so many IT issues now that it should be obvious.

It’s not a conspiracy.
