Yeah, guess you're right. Stinks I had it come in so late. Okay, email sent off. Here's hoping

Where should be this date stated? I don't have a date on my IHG or Amb page either!
There is just:

Ambassador Status: Royal Platinum Ambassador
You have maintained Platinum Status for the next year

There is just:
The only place I can now find it is under the "Print new member card" on the left under "Member materials". Also, if you've been renewed you'll see "Royal Ambassador Renewal" at the bottom under "Other activity".

Use the French PC site.

http://www.ichotelsgroup.com/h/d/pc/350/fr/home

then log in as usual, then "Visualisez votre compte" for :

Niveau d'adhésion: Membre Royal Ambassador - Platine

Expiration du statut Royal Ambassador: <Date, in French>

(the date of expiry of the RA status).

I hope this helps,
BazzaS.

Finally!

I was getting pretty peeved at not getting RA, but finally I have been given the status today

Here is the stat...
I joined PC back in May, then joined ambassador at the end of June.

59 Qualifying nights ( 53 at 3 different ICs, 6 at 1 CP) since joining PC
43 Qualifying nights ( 40 at 3 different ICs, 3 at 1 CP) since joining Ambassador

Not sure which criteria got me through but I am happy either way

Hi Comet, congratulations on the status upgrade, finally! Welcome aboard. Better late than never I guess.

Another data point. I had 59 nights total at IC hotels in the last 365 days. 56 were at HIX/HI/CP. One night each at three different ICs (the last of which just posted a couple of days ago).

Just checked on PC website and found myself upgraded to RA. So definitely less than 60 nights required, and same 3 different IC (but only 1 night at each necessary) requirement.

Wow, lucky. I've stayed 96 nights at IHG properties this year, five of which have been at an IC. I sent in an email and was told I did not qualify for an upgrade. I knew it was a long shot though.
