Question about the Voucher, do some research but I did not see the anwser.
Do we really need one?
Or should I simple book online and walk in to one of their hotel and get a name for "IHG Employee"?

Please either PM me or reply.
Thanks.

Some hotels will ask for it. Some will not. However, it is trivial to print out the PDF from the booking website, so it's not a problem.

Wink Don't worry.....................

Hello Flyer Talkers....

Since my F&F link was posted on this site, IHG has disabled my link. Wow. So they want me to promote our brand, provide me the link and then they disable it. Well, I did my part to try to earn business and revenue for IHG, I guess it was too much for them. lol

Anyways - Still send me a PM. It's not like I don't have IHG friends in the business . BUT PLEASE do not PUBLICLY display any other link on this site or those url's could become disabled too.

Randy

Does this in any way effect the validity of any upcoming F&F rate stays made using your link?

I'm pretty sure that the Steve Sickel (SVP, Marketing) and Cassandra Imfeld (Social Marketing Manager) links will remain active for the duration of the promo. The disabling of rmccamman's link probably has more to do with IHG not wanting to pay out the incentive than not wanting wide distribution.

Most unfair. THanks again for all your help Randy!

The incentive plan ended 4 months ago. Mine and a lot of people I know that there link posted on here, slickdeals etc have been removed. If the link stay's private (like only PM etc) then it's ok. It's when it gets publicly displayed and the public can view it (ie Facebook, you can't see my links unless you become my friend, where here anyone can see it) then it seems to become a issue.

I use my other friends FF link. There are a ton of them, and yes you can PM me.

You are welcome for anyone that I have helped and I am glad that you were able to save money and get a great deal.

Randy

p.s. - for those who are thankful, would you mind becoming a fan on our Hotel Facebook and follow us on twitter? You never know what I might post out there!

This is back (as per FW) and good for bookings made through Dec 31, for stays as far out as you can book them.

Sorry I won't link directly, as the post references a specific employee, and that seems to be off-limits in a public forum. The process worked well for me for a few nonrefundable bookings at IHG properties in the New Year.

As for the link, there are multiple links that still work that are posted here in this thread.

How can I find out if Royal Ambassador benefits apply to a specific hotel on the F&F promo? I'm looking to book a room at Bali IC, but only if RA applies.

Start by reading the F&F thread in the Priority Club & IC Ambassador Forum

While some posters have reported receiving RA benefits at ICs (including the Bali IC), others have not. The recommendation is to contact the specific hotel directly for written confirmation.

Thanks again, Randy! We stayed two nights at Halifax Airport HI Express (coming and going). Great staff and a very convenient location. One stay posted as qualifying and the other didn't. No complaints here!
