Further to your request, I would like to confirm that your IHG One Rewards membership has already been attached to this reservation. The reference is #XXXX.
However, kindly note that, for reservations made through third party suppliers such as this one, the IHG member benefits are not applicable and it is not possible to receive points related to the accommodation.
You can earn IHG points only for the incidentals, except taxes and external services.
I would describe this as out of step with most other chains, especially as this is not a prepaid FHR rate. But I never stay at IHG so I wouldn’t have much use for points if it does earn any.
One other thing is they noted the $150 credit as
(€ 150.00), not sure if typo or generous exchange rate.
