If you want to keep your SPG number, start here: https://www.marriott.com/loyalty/mer...mi?program=spg
If you want to keep your Rewards number, start here: https://www.marriott.com/loyalty/mer...ogram=marriott
New spg.com accepts a max password of 20 characters while legacy website accepted 24 characters.
If your legacy SPG password exceeds 20 characters, you will not be able to login as the 21st character and beyond is truncated. Reset password functionality may also fail. If you see following after attempting to reset password, call SPG to obtain your new SPG# and then return to spg.com to perform a password reset.

Log into here with your logon credentials of your combined account to see from the top right corner slider if or if not your account already shows that you have been successfully grandfathered into LTPPE status!
Warning: It seems this only works for those that a able to make a choice, as it doesn't work for me.

I got the prompt that shows that I can combine my accounts with respective side by side comparison but it seems my SPG balance is missing my latest stays (3+3+4 nights) as well as the 10 SNAs so I'm afraid to proceed with the combination. Should I wait for it to show up correctly before I combine the accounts or can I go ahead and it will be fixed later?

Sometimes, however, the best best answer is to direct the questioner to a thorough answer that's already been written. In this case, the definitive answer was at the top of this thread, with follow-up discussion— far more informative than just "the combine accounts feature will be done in batches starting later today" — and with the source of the information (and thus its reliability) established.

There are certainly a lot of quirks.
2018 Marriott: 88 nights
2018 SPG: 38 nights
Pre-merger LTPlatinum with SPG
SPG Nights: 700
Marriott Nights: 88
SPG Platinum years: 11 (plus one year as marriott platinum)
Now both logins read as Platinum Premier via the websites, but I cannot see anything regarding Lifetime
Both Apps note me as Lifetime Silver. Apps have some spend, but clearly not all.
Combine Accounts is greyed-out

For some members, combining accounts will mean total nights for 2018 that will bump them up to a higher Elite level than either of their current levels.

Members,
This weekend, we began the process of updating our systems to launch our new loyalty program.
At this time, we are excited to share that we have brought together all of our channels and members can now book all 6,700 hotels on Marriott.com, SPG.com and corresponding apps.
Later today, we are planning to rollout Combine Accounts functionality in batches to members to ensure site stability and a seamless user experience. When you log in to your account and see the prompt, you can then manually combine your accounts to view joint activity and one point balance. Accounts can only be combined by you, the member. Even if you linked your Rewards and SPG accounts prior to this change, you still need to take the action to combine your accounts once it is available to you.
To combine your accounts, all you need is your login info for both accounts. Combine and keep your Rewards number here. Prefer to keep your new SPG number? Combine here.
We are also aware of and are currently working to solve a few known issues impacting some members, particularly issues around status not displaying correctly.
As a reminder, status.marriott.com will periodically have additional updates.
8/20 Update
We are excited to announce that Combine Accounts functionality is now rolling out in batches to members through tomorrow. As a result, when members log in and see the prompt, they will now have the opportunity to combine their accounts.
Best regards,
Marriott Rewards Insider

What is "long ago"? This feature was only made available within the last day or so.
