Thank you. Yes it is alive now.

It is indeed! I have reasonable tasks for a total of 60,000 points, which should be achievable in 3 stays/8 nights

40k total that I should be able to complete with pre-existing bookings, but:

Go Places with the IHG® App
Earn 1,000 bonus points when you download, sign in and book 1 stay(s) with the IHG® App. Get mobile-exclusive rates and view member offers and benefits.

Does that mean I don't actually have to STAY with a mobile booking, just make it and then cancel and I still complete the goal?

Well, I don’t even know what to say about this one....

I have an offer to stay in two Intercontinental hotels. I am due to check out of one on 1st September. Will this count as one of the two, do you think?

Another totally disappointing Accelerate offer. This is the second one in a row I will give a miss. Guess IHG no longer values my business (I have given them almost no revenue stays this year due to the poor promotions. Marriott hasn't been much better but as my primary program and at least slightly better promotions for me, it has been a no brainer. Revenue travel for business stays has all gone to Marriott so far this year).

My offer:

I received the same from my amb rebates yesterday 😁😁😁


Really great targets

5,600 Stay at Holiday Inn Express®
Stay at 2 Holiday Inn Express® hotel(s) and earn 5,600 bonus points.

8,000 Saturday Stays Bonus
Stay 2 weekend(s), including a Saturday night and another night, and earn 8,000 bonus points.

4,500 Stay for Less and Earn
Book 1 stay(s) using Points & Cash and earn 4,500 bonus points. Points & Cash allows you to book Reward Nights with fewer points.

1,500 Spend on your IHG® Rewards Club Credit Card
Book one stay at any IHG® hotel using your IHG® Rewards Club Credit Card and earn 1,500 bonus points.

10,000 Your Achievement Bonus
Complete 4 of the 4 offers and earn (an additional) 10,000 bonus points.


The achievement bonus is so low I don't think I'll bother except with the 2 HIX and IHG CC tasks. The funny thing I've been alternating my recent IHG stays between 2 HIXs anyway, and always pay with my IHG CC.

Nothing special here. Though I did have a good one over the summer and hit all the offers.
