The reply was:
"Sorry, but RA status is by invitation, only, and it may be considered after 50 stays at IC/HI properties and furthermore stays at min. 3 different IC hotels.
Anyone has different experience? Should I call another agent? Any advice?
That would be very good, if consistently enforced - having to stay 50 nights on top of the 3 IC ones - might actually put some value back into being an RA. Sorry if it means you luck out though - try again after another stay, and see what happens.
