you can earn 2,000 bonus points per eligible paid stay at a Marriott Bonvoy participating hotel brand, starting with the second brand at which you stay during the promotion earning period. Bonuses will be issued for your first stay at each participating hotel brand during the promotion earning period, starting with the second brand.
Can anyone clarify how this works? My first stay will be at a Marriott, so it will not count in the brands promo. If I stay at another Marriott a few weeks later, will it count as a new brand or will it be eliminated from the eligible brands? Lurkers?
Surely they've thought of this. Why isn't this covered in the T&Cs or in a FAQ or did I just miss it?
