Stayed at the HI BKK recently using F&F rate. Was asked for the voucher during check-in.
The club lounge receptionist casually asked me my relationship with the name of the person working in IHG. No issue for me as the F&F link was sent to me by my friend working in IHG.
The receptionists on the club lounge are wonderful, very friendly and fun.

Just was checking out some hotels for Shanghai in early January and booked the Pudong Intercontinental for 370RMB on Jan 3. Checking other dates I couldn't find it for less than 500 so I just pulled the trigger.
Never used this before - I can just show up prepared with a voucher and it will definitely work?

How would you rate the CP in Jerusalem and Haifa? IC in Tel Aviv?

Not stayed at CP Haifa but IC Tel Aviv is one of my favourite IC's. They look after their RA's (Not sure of your status) with Club rooms (sometimes suites) including lounge access. The lounge is very very good with food throughout the day and good meals at night. Breakfast is superb. All in all a very nice hotel which I cant recommend enough! Also great rates available on f&f from about $165 a night.

I had planned to book 2 nigths in London in january, last time I checked, about a week ago, there was plenty of availability but now there's only the 2 Indigos and the IC left.
Untill December 24th there's plenty of availability, but after that regardless of date or month (jan, feb, march) the situtation is the same.first the Promotional Leisure rate and now this

The issue is that you cannot use the main PC website to book F&F. All you can do is go into Quidco/Ebates and use their link to the PC website. You then need to manually type in a link to the F&F website and hope that the tracking cookie continues to work. This is the biggest issue.

Not sure. You can with the 2-4-1 etc rates so it might work. I am currently waiting to see if a F&F booking just completed actually tracked via Quidco.

There is a different link at www.tinyurl.com/ihgjenni if you don't want Sickel's name on the voucher (given he is PC head honcho!)

I intend to use F&F rate at the IC Barclay for my parents stay in February (a wkend in NYC for Xmas gift) since I won't get credit anyway and then save my last two SD nights for IC Cologne, which is $150 more per night.

Why wouldn't I want Steve Sickel's name on the voucher? It clearly states on the web page "Share this offer with your social network and plan fun trips with friends for less!" and the bolding is Sickel's. I'll simply bring a screenshot of the webpage and tell the clerk if s/he has a problem with it to take it up with their SVP of Marketing.
