2020 nights (or points) rolled over to 2021 earnings?
Just looking at the IHG website I read:
"For Gold, Platinum, and Spire Elite members, all qualifying nights stayed in 2020 will be rolled over into 2021 and count towards status earned in 2021"
Nothing on my account yet, but I don't expect IHG to update their system quickly as there's no rush. However I guessing this just means the nights and not the points? In 2020 I qualified to retain Spire by early March, but since Covid-19 haven't stayed a single night and who knows what this year will bring. In my case I retained Spire by points and was nowhere near the 75 (now 55) nights. I'm not looking to be given my points twice, but it would be good if the nights and associated qualifying points are to be rolled over.
Am I out of luck? Does anyone have any clarifications?

February 4th. Still no rollover. I had over 20 nights in points and paid stay coming up. Decided I won’t book with them until rollover nights arrive and cancelled it all, switched to Hilton Home2. Really daft. No emails saying they are coming. I was at over 120 nights IHG in 2020 thanks to a covid-avoiding long stay. But nothing rolling over and no calming emails saying rollover nights are coming? I think they are just disorganized and not really aware how it feels at the customer end. I actually like IHG. Though many of my favorite Staybridge hotels moved to Sonesta (which has the oddest web search--in an area you price one hotel at a time!!-- and no app, not sure it was a good move). Hoping they pull their act together (takes more than a new logo and some renaming).

Last month I had 8 credit card free nights in my account. I knew it was an IT error, and sure enough, after about a week they fixed the error and the nights disappeared.

Nights were posted for me this morning. Also points from my IHG CC so for a second I thought I'd also gotten points but then I realized it was just CC earnings from this year
