Adding a DP and a gripe.

Just booked a hotel stay via amextravel for late July. T&Cs are pretty vague on whether post-pay is eligible or not, so I booked a refundable pre-pay.
That's all fine, but now I can't enter my IHG number because "lowest rate guarantee bookings are not required to provide loyalty program benefits." A bit frustrating, but I guess I'm also getting 5X points and have no status with IHG.

So..it's fine, and I'll report back when I get the credit, but the loyalty program thing was kind of annoying.

Also, travel dates have since changed (nothing to do with Amex), so this DP will turn into one that also includes a change in the reservation.
