I got the original email just fine, and it has saved me a bundle. Thanks Starwood!
However I just tried to book another stay at the Sheraton LHR. They said I could book an regular room for 7000 points or an executive room for 8000. I asked about the Freddie special and I was told that was only for regular rooms. Not for executive. Since this is for a friend who has no status for an upgrade, I wanted to book the Executive room.
William, is this correct?
