Has anyone had any luck getting access to WOW offers that are for "select" Centurion members even if not receiving an invite directly? Specifically referring to hotel stays. Called about one I read about here and was told my name is not on the invite list.
How about for gifts has anyone called and requested something they read about here and received it? I've read through many posts in this thread but still don't know for certain if so.

Yes if you read back through this thread, there are or were WOW codes that could be used by any Centurion member. Or at least Centurion members from some countries as none of us can claim to know how all this works over all the countries that offer Centurion. So the request back then and now is for Flyertalkers who get the invites to post the WOW codes here so others can use them. It's been done before if you look back. You don't have to worry about millions of Platinum members trying to use these because they have no access to WOW offers. It's just a small number of us Centurion Flyertalk members on this thread.

I'm a UK Cent. I do get various WOW offers from time to time, including a Ł500 Harrods gift card before Christmas last year, and the Ł350 Thom Browne voucher in the spring. I also visited a Centurion Lounge in the US recently, and was welcomed with a nice set of ear phones for both my wife and myself (Master & Dynamic ME05, retails at c. Ł150/each). However, what really wowed me is when I signed up for a paid dinner event and sent feedback afterwards to say it didn't meet expectations - I immediately got the Ł800 refunded for myself and my guests. Look forward to seeing what's for Christmas this year!

Out of interest was the dinner that you complained about one of the British Pullman Dinner events?

Received a $500 gift card today for Olivela.com. No minimum purchase. I was able to order two pairs of Ray-Ban sunglasses, a designer backpack and an eye shadow brush plus three free make-up samples. Total came to $499, free shipping, no tax added.
I've read so often about people getting gift cards and not being able to find anything to purchase that wasn't significantly more than the gift card value, so it was a pleasant surprise to be able to find some reasonable items in stock.
It has been many years since I've received anything from Centurion, so it was appreciated.

That is great Susan, thanks for sharing - is this as a US cardholder or another country?
As for our Canuck friends, got an email today for $500 off a $1000+ purchase (valid for approx. two week window of shopping only) at any of the following - Cartier, LV, Guerlain, Prada, MCM or Mulberry (specific locations).....I only hope they continue these stronger benefits in 2019 since some of our other benefits have been eliminated or diminished.
