How can you be sure that this is the application for the 70K and not 50K?

I have metaphysical certainty because when I sign up for an offer, I don't just take a screen shot: I save a copy of the web page source. And the source for the 70K offer -- image posted above -- links to the app page listed in post #1 (and in post #199, and in philemer's post just above this).

Also, when several long-time FTers -- including the friggin' forum moderator -- tell you that something is legit, there's a reason.

OK - long-time FTers and friggin' forum moderator - I am taking the plunge! :D

Hey, watch it. I'm not friggin'. I'm Norwegian. :p

I was holding out a bit longer but cannot take a chance on missing out on this - too good.
Will let you know (and others here) how it turned out. :)

After reading all the great info posted about the Marriott Premier Card I signed up for one. Thanks to all who posted the link because I was not able to find the app anywhere else. I do have a couple of questions I hope some of you more experienced FTer's can answer.
1) Does Marriott allow you to use the one night stay e-cert in conjunction with some points. I am planning a trip to Boston and the hotel I want is a Cat 6 and the cert is only good for up to a cat 5.
2) Am I correct in understanding that we get 15 nights credit toward status every year we keep the card ? Do those nights expire or accumulate and roll over?
Thanks for any help you can give.

As in affairs of love, there's no harm in asking the property, but I doubt you'll scorehave much success. (Also, you sure the cert is good for cat 5? The first-year cert is typically good only for cat 1-4, with the anniversary cert valid for 1-5.)

It's a static 15-night credit which neither expires (as long as you keep the card) nor rolls over.

I thought it was like you actually stayed 15 nights (IE: counts for lifetime status, etc.)

There is nothing anywhere -- on the offer page, in the materials sent with the card itself -- that implies that the 15 nights do anything other than boost your current-year total for earning status.

I just signed up because well
1) A Forum Moderator is validating this
2) If you actually look at the source code, it does state it's the 70k referral bonus

Thanks FT!

:confused::confused:

You're not alluding to
are you? That's not in the source, but is instead dynamically inserted (from HTTP_REFERER) if you click on the link in post #1.

I went back and checked the e-cert info. You are right about the first year cert being good for 1-4 cat. Anniversary cert is good for 1-5

When do the points normally post? Is it after statement closing?

I recently e-mailed Marriott about this same question (using a category 1-4 certificate at a category 5 or 6 hotel by adding points) and they said this is not allowed.
