86,000 points coming my way ^ Now if only IHG would actually start the processing so I can use them. For goodness sakes IHG, let's get a move on

The first Big Win points have posted to my account. I logged in today and saw that my 1500 points for the "Spend it to get it" goal have appeared. They were posted at about the same time as points from my monthly credit card statement.
There's an inconsistency between my account and my personalized promo page, though. While the 1500 points have posted to my awards account, the promo page still shows that I have not completed the "Spent it to get it" task. And while the promo page shows (correctly) that I completed the "Survey the win" task, those 100 points still haven't posted to my awards account 2 weeks later.

... And, btw, up to now the current Big Win page didn't use to have a "I accept the Program Terms & Conditions" checkbox (like the previous Big Win did), but tonight it seems to have added it, and the website is refusing to log me in as a result (I keep checking that box, and it keeps unchecking it
!).

First two challenges showed up: Change your view and Mobile app. Nothing updated on the Big Win webpage, though. Also, strangely enough, the breakfast challenge didn't post, even though both HIs that I stayed at were booked using the Breakfast rate (and oh god, the breakfast was terrible in one of them, and only average in the other). I can't wait for this challenge to be over. I hate HIs.

Can I just express how annoying it is that I have to login a second time to their stupid Big Win page? Why can't it just hold my login credentials from my account? (And for that matter, why can it hold my last city/date search, but not my room preferences, which NEVER change.)
Grr, crappy IT makes me cranky.
