Target me, please. I am a good customer and a great target.

21 YTD and got nothing. I supposed it is targeted to less frequent guests to encourage more stays.

Yeah the screenshot of the promo has a location icon. This may be geo targeted. Still tends to aggravate when you don’t get.

Ugh, I could totally see Marriott forgetting about “international” members.

Based in UK, got a fairly weak earn 12,000 bonus points offer, although not complaining given some people got nothing.

12k points for 2 stays (4.5/7.5k).
I'm an Ambassador with 20 nights YTD, and probably another 30 already booked in between now and April. Pretty underwhelming.
Their marketing team should probably also know that this narrative isn't too appealing to me... "With 12,000 points, you could enjoy one free night at a Category 1 hotel or resort."

UK based LTP and I got the two stays for 10 elite night credits.

As I've been relatively light on stays for the past 18 months, this isn't going to get me to bite. Points would have, but stay credits that serve no purpose for me won't. At least I got something though.

I got by email :

Earn Double Bonus Points : EARN 2X ON STAYS OF TWO OR MORE NIGHTS.
Meh.

No end-date specified in the email.

One registration has been done, it then says

Earn double bonus points on eligible paid stays of two or more nights.
Stay at any of our 6,700 participating hotels and resorts worldwide now through 05/31/2019.
So, what are "Double Bonus points", exactly ? Base points are doubled ? Base plus elite bonus doubled ? Elite bonus only doubled ?

There seems to be pattern emerging here with stuff coming out of Marriott at the moment being sloppy and not properly sense-checked and tested (ref, for example the recent game promo, and the 'end-of-year statement' email).

First stay earns 1,500 points
Second stay earns 3,000 points
Third stay earns 4,500 points

Maximum bonus 9,000'
Got the exact same one. Guess Hilton will keep on getting my business. Not interested in a meagre 9000 points

Which rocket scientist in the corp office thought giving some a promo and others not was a good idea. I know, how would we ever find out that Joe was offered a promo and Dave was not.

No promo for me so Hilton with double points wins for the next four months.

Currently PPE (LTP), 9 nights this year....and no promo! I checked email and my Promotions page. It's always hard to figure out what the algorithm is for these promos. Especially for those of us that don't get anything

Have a little hope that they are rolling it out and it eventually gets to me...???
