I have had no IHG bookings so far in 2019. Maybe that's why they shafted me? |
I had the problem yesterday where I couldn't see any offers after it told me I wasn't eligible based on my earning preferences.
I've tried again this morning and I can see the offers now but they're really poor. I've never had such rubbish choices previously, pretty disappointing... Earn 19,900 total bonus points. Complete all of your Accelerate offers and earn 19,900 total bonus points. 5,600 Stay at Holiday Inn® Stay at 2 Holiday Inn® hotel(s)—including Holiday Inn Resort® and Holiday Inn Club Vacations®—and earn 5,600 bonus points. Terms 3,200 Saturday Stays Bonus Stay 2 weekend(s), including a Saturday night and another night, and earn 3,200 bonus points. Terms 4,500 Stay for Less and Earn Book 1 stay(s) using Points & Cash and earn 4,500 bonus points. Points & Cash allows you to book Reward Nights with fewer points. Terms 6,600 Earn More, Faster Earn 6,600 bonus points when you book 4 Bonus Points Package stay(s) and get to your next reward faster. Not even an achievement bonus |
Good News Bad News
Good News my offers are now listed. Bad news they are ridiculously poor:
https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...4d99fce9b5.jpg This will be the second Accelerate promotion in a row I skip. I will continue to focus on Marriott, my primary program, for now. If the IHG promo's continue to be anemic, I may move to Hilton or Hyatt as my secondary program. --Jon |

it is believed to be a bogus message; many are seeing it (including me). When you go to your list of offers, you will likely see that you are signed up for it. But you will also likely see no details about the promo (what challenges/rewards are your specific promo). That, too, is believed to be a bug that hopefully gets resolved. in the meantime I booked Hilton stays for the next few months since their promo actually works for me. When the IHG mystery promo reveals itself to me, maybe I will reconsider... 10,500 Stay More, Earn More Get closer to the rewards you want when you stay 7 night(s) and earn 10,500 bonus points. 14,400 Discover Our Brands Stay at 3 brands and get 14,400 bonus points. 5,600 Saturday Stays Bonus Stay 2 weekend(s), including a Saturday night and another night, and earn 5,600 bonus points. 4,500 Stay for Less and Earn Book 1 stay(s) using Points & Cash and earn 4,500 bonus points. Points & Cash allows you to book Reward Nights with fewer points. 5,600 Stay at 6 IHG® Hotels Stay at 6 IHG® hotel(s) and earn 5,600 bonus points. 6,600 Earn More, Faster Earn 6,600 bonus points when you book 2 Bonus Points Package stay(s) and get to your next reward faster. Quite easy to hit that lot before the end of August, given that I'm on the move a lot this summer, so I will probably get an awful offer in September for the next Accelerate. |
I, too, was first shunned by the earning preference error, but now I log in and I see the following;
9,000 Stay More, Earn More Get closer to the rewards you want when you stay 6 night(s) and earn 9,000 bonus points. 8,400 Discover Our Brands Stay at 2 brands and get 8,400 bonus points. 2,800 Stay at 3 IHG® Hotels Stay at 3 IHG® hotel(s) and earn 2,800 bonus points. 6,600 Earn More, Faster Earn 6,600 bonus points when you book 2 Bonus Points Package stay(s) and get to your next reward faster. 12,000 Stay a Little Longer Earn 12,000 bonus points when you book 2 stay(s) of 4 or more consecutive nights. 19,400 Your Achievement Bonus Complete 5 of the 5 offers and earn (an additional) 19,400 bonus points. I suspect a few of these I'll receive pretty much accidentally. But the long stay task is completely unrealistic for me, and as such, I won't get the 12,000 for it, nor the 19,400 completionist bonus either, so this is likely to be an inconsequential promo for me. I'm a very recent first-time entrant to Gold (though 3/4 of the way to Platinum), having done 13 stays in the last year, 9 of them in 2019. |

8,400 for two weekends 4,500 for one points&cash stay 2,800 for three IHG hotels not terribly difficult during road trip season, but 15,700 points aren’t particularly motivating... |
146.7K...but requires at least 30 nights stay to acheive it, or less than 3K points per night.
My total is 107K, but can be acheived with 4 stays 1 of which has to be for 4 nights min, the others can be for 3x single nights. So 7/8 nights @15.2K/13.3K points per night 21,600Discover Our Brands Stay at 3 brands and get 21,600 bonus points. 16,800 Stay at InterContinental® Hotels Stay at 2 InterContinental® hotel(s) and earn 16,800 bonus points. 4,500 Stay for Less and Earn Book 1 stay(s) using Points & Cash and earn 4,500 bonus points. Points & Cash allows you to book Reward Nights with fewer points. 6,600 Earn more fasterEarn 6,600 bonus points when you book 2 Bonus Points Package stay(s) and get to your next reward faster. 4,000Stay a Little Longer Earn 4,000 bonus points when you book 1 stay(s) of 4 or more consecutive nights. 53,500Your Achievement Bonus Complete 5 of the 5 offers and earn (an additional) 53,500 bonus points. No chance I'll do 4 consecutive nights, pity that I now have to do all targets to hit the bonus, I recall when it was 5 out of 6 etc. I also notice that if I switch the offer page to reader mode, a load more targets appear, including stay once in june for 3K points |
25,200 Discover Our Brands
Stay at 4 brands and get 25,200 bonus points. 16,200 Stay at Crowne Plaza® Stay at 3 Crowne Plaza® hotel(s) and earn 16,200 bonus points. 4,500 Stay for Less and Earn Book 1 stay(s) using Points & Cash and earn 4,500 bonus points. 6,600 Earn More, Faster Earn 6,600 bonus points when you book 2 Bonus Points Package stay(s). 52,500 Your Achievement Bonus Complete 4 of the 4 offers and earn (an additional) 52,500 bonus points. I think that's the most points I've ever been offered, and it would be achievable in 6 nights. |
Easy peasy for me again. 3 nights, 3 brands, one paid on the IHG credit card, 41k.
Was going to happen anyway so I'm happy. I have gotten considerably easy and achievable offers for the past few cycles. Having the credit card seems to be a plus in my case, usually one of my tasks is to spend on it. |
12 Weekend stays again, didn't complete it last time. I have 5 weekends already booked, but they're super discounted.

IHG needs to end this never ending promotion and come up with something new. This is the worst offer I've ever had...by far.
