I hope they don't.

Although that forum is far less useful than the FT, IHG (through a marketing company) do monitor that space very closely, and facilitators (from US) are regularly taking comments from people, and giving feedbacks from IHG.

I really wish IHG don't take responses down there very serious, because some questions and comments down there just unbelievable. I just don't understand how they selecting members! I've been invited to apply twice, and been refused twice!

What a waste of space, why can't they listen to us on FT?

If only I could get all those bonuses on every stay. And even if I could, only half of my stays are one-nighters (Sunday night).

Quick question - what's the typical length of time from checkout->points posting for HI/HIX? Also, do all applicable promo points post at the same time as standard points?

Hi feelthecool,

Usually 5 working days maybe 7 at the latest. All promos usually post at the same time unless the T&C anything different.

Regards

Thanks boss - I'm very excited about my first PC stay (sick with bonuses) posting! Kudos on the thread too - it helped me go with PC vs. Marriott Rewards (plus M's hotel in my area of work sucks).

Thanks Radioman et al. I'm a Brand New RA (referral). I'm now booked a total of 18 nights (6 stays) so far for 2009, mostly Asia. Thanks for all the codes. If all goes well, IC has a new convert.

I've always found that old people really don't have much of an idea about what is going on. Not all, but a lot of them just walk about asking these silly questions, when common sense would always dictate the answer.

As in this case, Radioman and the others always point out that we should never contact IHG and stuff like that because there is a slim chance that our points may be taken away!

"Old people?"

What about all the idiots on FT, many of whom are quite young (20-somethings etc.), who constantly start new threads asking the most basic questions (such as are directly addressed on the respective programs' websites)?

I don't think that "old people," or people on those "other" websites, have any monopoly on stupidity!

Anyhow, this thread has seriously drifted off topic, and I'm sorry to have further contributed to that....

That sounds identical to promos 4389 and 6458.

I registered for one of these successfully, then when I tried to register for the others, the acknowledgment was: "Thank you for your submission. You are already enrolled in this promotion."

(Of course, you can always try. Just be forewarned! )
