I was approved Monday or later. Yesterday, I made a reservation when I saw the 4th night was free. Obviously (I think), I don't have the physical card and I don't know the full card number. Maybe I'm just lucky.

I saw the 4th night was free by clicking on the Rate Details link while at the room selection page in the reservation process. The details showed the points required for each of the four nights; the fourth night showed zero. Other than this, I saw no indication that the fourth night was free. In other words, nothing said anything like, "Congratulations, your fourth night is free!"

Since one holds the reservation, I'm not sure how a requirement to have the card would be enforced. However, I don't know and I would also be interested in this.
