Having been platinum for over 7 years, I was a little surprised that I got a letter stating I had 42 nights so far and needed an additional 33. To me it was a slap in the face considering so many others were being comped to Platinum with much less than 50 nights. I can understand not getting my plat status renewed but I don't understand the point of the letter. Someone who stays a lot probably dosen't need a reminder of how many more nights are needed for platinum.
