I never stay at Radison. (I give as much as possible of my business to Hilton since I can transfer FF miles into Hilton, which is what I usually do with miles, since I almost never can get a free flight when I need it.) Thus, I was not a member of Radison's frequent guest program. When I learned about Valuemag, I joined, but my only intention was to buy everyone magazines for Christmas, and then have Radison convert the resultant points to FF miles, which I would then launder into Hilton Hhonors points. Hence, Radison would not have gotten a single revenue night out of me that they were not going to get anyway, and they still won't, even though I am now a member of Radison's program. I suspect that Radison realized that there were a lot of people out there like me, who were just in it for the miles and who were very INfrequent guests at Radison properties and thus the program refocused its priorities on maximizing the program's benefits from the point of view of those who actually stay at Radison properties.(Valuemag's plug got pulled a day before I placed the order; I thought I had until the end of December, so I spent too much time asking everyone what magazine they wanted, so it didn't work for me.)
