E-mail to Marriott, sent a moment ago:
Good morning.
I opened this account during the promotional period, when 1,000 British Airways miles were offered for new account.
Marriott unfortunately failed to deposit these miles, so I contacted a supervisor, who promised that these miles would be deposited by the end of July (BA account [redacted]).
Yet again, this promise has been reneged upon.
Please could you advise me, whether Marriott intends eventually to honour the terms of its promotion?

Frankly, I wish I had never started this, as it's been far more bother than it's worth, but I'm not letting them away with it now.

Such a pity as with me at least it generated a lot of good will toward Marriot and was at the next available opportunity going to book with them. If I don't get the points will be a bit annoyed.

If they can't even get this right, I can't say I'm going to have much confidence going forward.

Not to give any false hope,
But I just logged onto marriottt.com (via phone) and it is showing the last transaction as
2017 Double Miles - 1k Bonus
1,000 miles posted Aug, 01
Type Bonus
So who knows, maybe these points are finally going to appear ?

Fairly standard boiler-plate response this morning:
Dear Timothy [redacted],
Thank you for contacting Marriott Rewards.
I’m sorry that the frequent flyer miles from the 2017 Double Miles with 1K Bonus promotion did not post to your British Airways account within the expected timeframe. We are continuing to work with British Airways to post the missing frequent flyer miles.
We apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for your understanding.
Thank you for choosing Marriott.
Sincerely,
Sarah C.

They still seem to be trying to push the blame onto BA. What can possibly be so difficult?
If it really is this hard to post a few Avios, what possible confidence can I have in Marriott Rewards going forward?

Saw this from xenole, logged into my BAEC account and I have exactly the same
Just checked Mr S's account and he has not got his Avios yet, we applied within ten minutes of each other.

I now have a blank e-mail, with no subject and no content from [email protected], sent at 01:36 this morning, European time.
This is looking more and more like simple incompetence.
