And you should also see that the bonus points you received are worth far more than any bonus points Wyndham gives.

Yes, it is misleading for Choice to claim stay 2 get a free night. However, 8,000 points for 2 stays is better than any other hotel bonus program that I am aware of.

You make some good points. All the chaines fudge things in their interests. I was foolish to trust the big print marketing and should have ave looked deeper for the small print. They all do that. Don’t get me started on past surprises from IHG and Hilton. Trust but verify. If Choice is overall decent they will have my business, as small as it is.

End of stay-2-night promo interpretation ?

I have an upcoming stay tonight (11/9) - it would be # 2 of 2 separate stays.
Since the promo states:

"Stay two separate times between September 12 and November 9" etc.

would my interpretation be correct or incorrect that this stay tonight would qualify for the promo ?

Exclamation Choice Hotels "Secret Site": 1000 point bonus through end of Jan, online only

https://www.choicehotels.com/secret-site

1000 bonus points per stay, only if booked online. only through that link, not available for app bookings or phone bookings, nor bookings through the normal Choice site. US only and other restrictions, read the fine print at the link above.

I found it through a link on the Doctor of Credit website this morning. I don't know how long it's been around, since it says booking had to be made Oct 29 or later. ChoiceHotels says below it should stack with other promotions.

I also don't know if it'll stack with other promotions (ie, would it have stacked with the promo that just ended a couple days ago if anyone had found about it then?).
Greetings,

I see you have found one of the Choice Secret Site Promotion sites. Congrats to you. I am going to Private Message you additional details. Please know that it will take 6-8 weeks to receive the points once you have completed the stay. Also, this promotion is valid with other promotions.Thank you for being a member with Choice Hotels!

>Choice Privileges "Members Only Madness" Promotion Is Back With Surprise Deals
Choice Hotels Rewards Loyalty Members with Daily Giveaways in Time for Holiday TravelROCKVILLE, Md., Nov. 12, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Travelers looking to score holiday deals are in for a treat as Choice Privileges, the award-winning loyalty program from Choice Hotels International, Inc.(NYSE: CHH), begins its second annual "Members Only Madness" promotion today. Now through November 16, 2018, Choice Privileges members will receive daily emails with exclusive deals, including discounts on stays and options to earn bonus points and gift cards

So what was the deal for yesterday? Am I the only one who didn't get an email or did anybody get one?

I didn't get an email either, and I'm signed up for their promotional emails.

That makes me worry about today's special (5,000 bonus points for a stay by the end of the year.) It let me register, but will I still wind up not getting the points? If so, it might not be worth trying to stay at a Choice hotel over the other options (or specifically try to keep my current reservation active if a better deal comes along.)

I tried to register but was told "An Error Has Occurred". Needless to say didn't bother.

Same here. 'We are sorry. An un-expected error occured'.

I will be booking a stay, but unsure if it will post automatically. Is there anywhere else you can register besides the email link?
