What ?! You're offered twice the amount as I am for the exact same target; Stay at 4 different brands.
Harsh discrimination from IHG.

Get stuck in :-)

I think i've got the worst one so far:-

15,000 - double your stay
3,200 - Book 2 stays with the App
6,000 - Book 6 stays on corporate rate

Good job i'm focusing on the Hilton Miles and More Promo till the end of Oct

Same here.

I'm perfectly happy to send my stays over to Hilton and Hyatt for better promos (and better status benefits).

15k doublestay
17200 discover 4 brands

Meeh. SKIP. Again. So this will spike my last nail in the IHG coffin. I have been mostly redeeming and only 2 paid stays this year. Spire member here and nobody next year unless I can extend my Spire with Amb purchase later this year to maximize

Same for me. 30k for doublestay and 5k for 5 app stays. I am fairly new to IHG but liked the previous promos. I have 30 nights around the world during this period. None will be at IHG. Hopefully next time the promo will be a little moe appealing.

Nothing special in mine, except for ‘Stay 7 nights, earn Platinum status for 2019.’ I’m currently 18 nights away from that.

Add me to the list of underwhelmed, 21K (2 tasks) plus whatever I get in bonus points. The good news is I won't spend money trying to accomplish a whole bunch of tasks; I don't have to book through the app so can continue to get $ back from Mr Rebates; and I won't be traveling to a city where I really hadn't planned to go. I have a rather expensive stay in October so nice I'll at least get double points. When I print the the page that should show my 3 offers, it shows 4 pages worth of offers. Also interesting no report of a use your IHG credit task this time.
Thanks OP--amazes me how some are so savvy in discovering these days/weeks before we hear from IHG.

Can anyone see from the T&Cs whether existing bookings count?

I actually quite like this one - very easy to cherry pick.

My offers:

Double points up to 15,000 from second stay

9,600 for two weekend stays (Sat. + one other night)

8,000 for two bonus points packages

I have a two-week USA road trip in November, so I'll just book cheap HIXs for the two weekends, pick up a dead easy 20k and move on.

My offer isn't too bad, and I could get 36,600 bonus points by booking 2 cheap bonus point package stays/nights with the app. But, I'm completing a Hilton Diamond challenge (matching my Spire status) at the end of September, and unless I need to be visiting my parents in small-town WI twice, it's tough for me to give up those benefits (when Spire rarely gets me much of anything).
