I managed to register for roles to rooms with a Croatian address. Have a stay in 10 days, will report if it posts.

It didn't matter in my case as I had quite a few stays in Asia here in Asia where my PC address also is.

)The printed card starts "Stay at any of our hotels ..." and the web page T&C says "any participating[list of brands] worldwide".

I knew the other shoe would drop eventually.
They just sent me a survey to ask how they did on my inquiry and the survey won't work! LOL!!!
Oh well, at least the important part of the transaction went smoothly!

Today I noticed that my last stay at IC Frankfurt hadn't posted and all of my October stays still hadn't been tracked on my Stay 15 Get 15K promo.
I rang Manila and was told that I had cancelled my reservation for FRA and that the Stay 15 Get 15K only applied to ICs not the other properties in the chain. At this point I was expecting to get screwed the same way several others have described in other posts.
I explained that I did, indeed, cancel my reservation at FRA but made another one for a different room on a different rate on the same day and that she (the woman on the phone) was incorrect regarding the Ts & Cs of the Stay promo.
Much to my surprise, I was put on hold for a few minutes and when the girl came back on the phone I had already had my FRA stay credited and all of the other stays tracked on my Stay promo (which meant I fulfilled it and got my 15k)!
Great job Amb Services! It was really refreshing to get such good service when there are so many others that have only come away from simillar calls with a headache. ^

My observation is just based on the empirical evidence when my stay out of Asia didn't count for this promo.

I would NOT call Ambassador service center IF you have signed up for a promotion that you were NOT originally targeted for.

I suggested he look at the text on http://priorityclub.com/mixpleasure. He apologised a lot and said he'd have to get someone to look into it, as the information in their computer does not match what's on the web.

To my complete surprise I received the first "Roles to Rooms" bonus - makes absolutely no sense, as it was my 6th stay in October (and 3rd at an IC)
FWIW I lodged a missing bonus report a day before (after all, this is public offer, on a freely accessible PC page), I haven't heard back from them.
