Trouble transferring Radisson
Anyone else having trouble transferring Radisson points into Choice?
When I try to link the accounts I get permission denied in a red block, every time.
Anyone else have this issue and know how to solve it? I think Choice is probably allergic to the Radisson points. I know I am.

I am not sure if it is because my Choice account balance is zero?

Same issue
I have long standing accounts with both programs, both with some miles in it. I'm logging into US site (read somewhere foreign sites have issues).
I don't get the same page, but have the same issue - permission denied. Tried many times, confirmed account via OTP, still doesn't work...
I guess I'll give it a while for Choice to sort out their IT problems...

I reset the password on my dormant Choice account and logged in no problem. 0 balance as expected. Also logged into Radisson Americas and visited this link to transfer to Choice. The Choice logo spins for a while and nothing happens.
Tried another browser and when I finally get to select a transfer, Choice says my account has been disabled. Choice phone support says the account is not disabled, and I have to talk to Radisson, which makes no sense. Not open until Monday.
Anyone else see this?

Update of sorts. Called Raddison and Choice, but both were dead ends. Raddison blames Choice and Choice blames Raddison and the customer service representatives transfer back and forth. The process ends with a transfer to a true dead end, and the line drops. 2 hours on the phone and neither will even acknowledge the error message is a real error message. To add to tthe entertainment, the last transfer was to the time share group. I thought the customer service representative was "suggestive selling" while fixing the issue; but no, the representative was trying to sell me a time share.

Maybe I can bypass this with a new Choice account but was told it won't work.
This seems like a crazy policy if they want to bring over their Radisson Americas customers. Transfers should work and they should even automatically match RA status, even though status doesn't mean much.
