One hotel restaurant claimed that they were an independent outfit, so I took my receipt directly to the front desk where they were able to generate the claim form for me, with the points posting promptly.
if you have receipts for past dining when you were not a guest, you would send an email to research atsign Starwoodhotels, header Missing Dining Points, attaching scans/photos of receipts. Sample message ... Hi, On this date I dined at (restaurant) at (property) and have not received any points credit in my account. I have attached copies of the receipt. Thank you for your assistance. Points Scrounger SPG# (yours) Takes a week or so to hear back, usually they send a reply email confirming the points. Good luck! I followed your approach and received an email back in 3 or 4 days crediting the points. I even received the platinum bonus! And thanks to the SPGers as well all figure out how to navigate and maximize the new program! |

This benefit will end when the programs are combined.

Any update on this? The spg cravings website is gone with no listing of spg restaurants.
Do the SPG member discounts still apply? |
Earn points at all SPG/Marriott/RC restaurants without staying
Here we are. Definitive proof that we can now earn discount and points for eating at all SPG/Marriott/RC hotel restaurants. There’s a new web site promoting it: https://marriottmembersdinemore.com/en And it works. Yesterday I had brunch at the Ritz Carlton Macau. At the end of the meal they proactively asked if I had membership. I gave them my new Platinum Premier SPG number. I got 20% discount off the bill and they completed a manual points receipt. This receipt is like SPG hotels used to do but it has all three loyalty logos on it. Points haven’t posted yet of course but the staff were clearly trained about this new benefit and they have the collaterals to execute it. At a Ritz Carlton no less. |
It seems to be working, although only in Asia Pacific. I wonder if hotels in other regions will follow.

I just posted on this in combined thread (can moderators actually combine threads as now I,have to go to three threads and there is duplication of posts?)
I got 20% and points at Sherato Grand in Shanghai two days ago when not staying. New slips have all logos rather than just,SPG |
Looks like middle east yet to be loaded. and a downgrade on the discount, prior I had upto 20% as just a spg member at some restaurants.

So is this gone in North America now?

So, Starwood Lurker(s): when they guy was trying to "find me" in the computer when trying do to this (and knowing I wasn't a current guest) I tried my old SPG number, my new (8/18) SPG number and my MR number and neither came up in the computer (nor via name, IIRC). When we did the paper copies I put my MR number in there (as that's supposed to be the one number to use now).
I haven't seen my credit yet, and I was at the restaurant (Urban Farmer at The Nines PDX) on 11/14. Who do I turn to now- the missing stay form, or some other remedy? |

Doesn't the terms and conditions of membership already address this question?
