Emailed Hyatt/Marriott for status match/challenges as I am looking away from HH and PC.
Hyatt offered me 12 days in 60 days for diamond til end of Feb 2014. Marriott offered me a challenge of 9 stays through Dec 31st for Plat til end of Feb 2014.
Surprised Marriott was generous, as they shunned me years ago. What do you folks think? Time to give Hyatt a chance?
For more context, have about 30 HH stays and 55 IHG nights for the year. Enough to requalify for HH Diamond this year and IHG RA for next year (though likely need 5-10 more nights by next March at IHG).
Which challenge is better? Seems like Marriott is better, but long term maybe Hyatt a better choice as a third program?
I have a 2 night stay coming up, with no Marriott properties, so maybe a good way to get 2 nights out of the way. Thoughts?

On the other hand, if Marriott were to rock my socks off, it could become my #1 program.
Guess I'm a bit neutral, but more opportunistic that I can get 2 nights off the bat this week.

When taking the Diamond challenge, do point stays count toward the 12 nights, or only paid stays?

If someone completes the challenge right now, their status is valid until Feb 2014. But will those people receive another (4) confirmed suite upgrade certs in Feb 2013? TIA ^

I was told I would not get any Suite UG certs until I finished the challenge, but I got an email saying I have 4 UG certs until Feb 2013. What do you all think? Do I really have them? Can I check online?
