These three are confirmed. I updated the promo thread. The rest didn't work. Not sure about the weekend stay bonus, I'm not sure what's the criteria for this one.

ANNIVERSARY BONUS OFFER (8000) - 1000 points
NEW MEMBER BONUS (9944) - 3000 points
New Stay Bonus (4040) - 1500 points

Would you imagine that someone posted this on the IHG Facebook page:

"Platinum Elite Member has a question; any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I would like to know how I can find out from IHG Rewards Club all the various point bonus offers that are available. I am signed up for all of your offers. However, the only way I get notified for offers is LoyaltyLobby. There are some really great offers that came out within the last week, and I would never have known of them had it not been for LoyaltyLobby.
Thanks!"

Actually, she deleted the post after I politely explained to her that she's not entitled to any of those promos and suggested that she should remove it.

Still there a minute ago

A good idea to ask her to delete it though.

Took 16 days, but it was posted. A shame though, I want vouchers so I can choose which a/c to add to and round off to closest 5k when necessary.

Yesterday it was confirmed that Crowne Plaza should infact be giving out a 600 points voucher - so I emailed all 4 CP that I had stayed in recently including the one in prague and within the last 24 hours all 4 have e-mailed back either a scan of a 600 points voucher or credited 600 to my account - 2400 just for chasing them up. Result.

All my UK stays have given vouchers (except 1 CP which gave a/c credit), and while we each did get for 2 x 1 night back-2-back bookings between Mrs & I at CP Brussels airport, the first voucher was given at check in with a smile, the second grudgingly when chasing at check-out with a statement along the lines of "You don't get for 2nd night of 1 combined stay, I won't discuss it!"

2656 - 1,500 Welcome Back bonus
2785 - 3,000 elite next stay bonus for 90 days

3825 - 3,000 elite next stay bonus for 90 days
4777 - 5,000 Platinum bonus (expires 1-Mar, but never posted for me)

Can't say whether they'll still work or not but they're all still in the IC Master Promo wiki.
