Promotion: get 10% of points back for aug-sept 18 redemptions (cc holders only)
 

Got this via email as well. Registered.
(For Hyatt credit card members only, both versions)

Does that mean I have to rebook to get the rebate? Or do existing bookings count?

Any know if this runs in parallel to the 2500 point for every five nights at GH promo?

I too am wondering whether this applies to bookings already made for stays during the promotion period, or whether I need to re-book the reservation during the promotion period. The offer language itself does not seem to clarify this and I have a few bookings already made for stays in August and September. I went to the Hyatt website hoping to be able to email them to ask this question, but only found customer service phone numbers and no email addresses. I am concerned if I call customer service, the person I speak to may not be fully informed about this, and may not give accurate information given the need to respond on the spur of the moment.

Thanks for sharing. Useful

HR/GH promo does indeed count award stays towards the 5night/2500 pts.

"normally" (as in every case I have had experience with Hyatt), their promos aren't specific to when you book, only when you stay. I don't see anything in the Ts and Cs here that suggest this is any different, but you can always call and hope to get someone who knows the answer. It shouldn't take long for someone to confirm with their own experience as well.

This is another promo that is good to take advantage if you are already using pts, but hard to imagine changing a booking just because of a 10% pt discount. I have 18 nights of paid stays booked and the 10% pt back doesn't add nearly enough value to change any of those cash stays to pt stays.

Johnsmith, those links must be just for you! Because when I clicked on 2 of them, I got, "This offer has already been redeemed." And on the others I got http://x-apple-data-detectors//5 !

The generic link is provided in another post in this thread.

Thanks, Solewalker & FH! I tried it & got "We're sorry. We are unable to process your request." I guess they know that I cancelled my Hyatt Visa last December ;) ! And the address bar ends with "globalPromo.error-ERROR_SOAP_0372 ."
Oh well, I don't expect to stay in any Hyatts in Aug./Sep. anyway.

From the Hyatt Concierge twitter - rebate based on stay date:


Good evening! The booking date does not matter. You must register by Aug 31st and stay between Aug 1 and Sept 30th to get the 10% back. ^TH

Pretty pumped about this - I currently have over 60,000 points worth of booking during the period, and have more points-based stays planned (but not booked yet).

Thank you for clearing that up for us; I have a 75K point redemption for September, so this will be a nice benefit.

Per the registration page: "Only points redeemed between 8/1/2018 and 9/30/2018 will be eligible for this promotion." For an award booking, the points are removed from your account at the time of booking, not at the time of the stay. Is there a distinction between reserving with points and 'redeeming'?

After a points stay, the pt held upon booking get moved and posted with the date of your checkout (which is the actual redemption).
