Called in (US line) and try to upgrade my OC5 to NC5 (7N) and no go, after a very long hold. Just told me they had been told they can't do that "yet" but also state this option "might" not be available ever again. After I hung up, I noticed they didn't convert any of my OC5 certs. I planned to use them in July next year, so, I am in no rush, just thought I will get the cert upgrade now while there is an opportunity....but
I would love to upgrade my OC5s to NC5s. But since it would be to use on SPG hotels, I don't see the point until we can actually attach the NCs to a reservation. Something tells me that upgrading certs to just leave them there for awhile is a recipe for disaster...
