I haven't been able to see my spend, even with well over 50 nights, but yesterday my Ambassador confirmed that I've requalified. Ambassadors can apparently easily see spend (exactly) even if we can't.

I found that I can see my spend on the iOS app (installed it on an ipad). My android phone and the website vanished when I made Ambassador last year.

My YTD page on an iPad


But idiotic that it doesn’t work online and on the platform with the largest mobile user base.

I think some have reported that Android users who are not already Ambassadors can see their spend.

Bizarre.

That's me too! I guess I will always see it as I minimize my spend to Titanium. I have no intention of ever committing $20K of my own after-tax money for an Ambassador.

Why doesn't it indicate that you have Ambassador through 01/2021, not just 2020, which would be the status you earned last year?

No idea. Ever since I hit Amb last year post merger, it changed to that and the dials vanished.

It should be 2021.

for me too. Now I'm curious how it compares to my spreadsheet. The spend showing on the app looks a bit on the high side but I haven't looked at the spreadsheet in a few days and we'll have to check when I get back off the road.

Wouldn't that put you over by $100?

Yes, but that's before considering the questionable "exchange rates" Marriott uses in calculating non-USD spend amounts...

I made a spreadsheet for this year since there seemed to be a lot of angst about points crediting properly.

Now that I have the total in my app, I have compared to the spreadsheet which includes a mix of stays in the US, Europe, and South America. The app shows spend that is slightly higher than I'm tracking in the spreadsheet based on actual invoices. Not sure I understand but maybe some is from a checkout on New Years Day where the nights were credited to last year and perhaps getting credit for VAT in European properties.
