Got the 22.5k 3 stay offer, based in Canada. LTG.
Finally a promo that steers me temporarily away from Hilton. |

No promo for me so Hilton with double points wins for the next four months. |
LTPPE (during sweep) and also current PPE. Got the double elite night offer for 2 months. :(
Better than nothing, I guess. |
No promo for me too...

Nothing for me, PPE with 15 nights so far this year. I do wonder if frequency ties in, I have reservations for each week this month already made. Double EQN would have been nice :/

Meh. No end-date specified in the email. One registration has been done, it then says 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). :( |

I too have no email and nothing on app but Marriott website shows the 3k, 6k, 9k offer for paid stays 1,2,3. i had a paid stay scheduled for March 1 which I converted to award stay (using up a cat 1-4 award night certificate). I doubt I will convert it back for 3k points. Not that it matters what I think, but these targeted offers are dumb dumb dumb in this age of social media. Instead of good will, all you end up doing is piss off segments of your most aware and most vocal customers. I know that they are the rage of the analytics and customer segmentation crowd, I've seen it in action up close and think they are missing the negative effects...as can be seen in this thread. |
I'm a US-based Plat with 0 stays so far this year. I have a 2-night stay booked this month, nothing else. And no offer at all.
So I don't think it's just targeting those with less activity. Makes me feel better about staying with Hyatt. I'll keep Marriott as the second choice only when it's more convenient. |

I can't understand too. Maybe this worked in the past when no social medias exists. But they should already know that customers share their experince now. And that customers who get nothing get more and more frustrated... |
LTPP with 50 nights last year.
Got this one, in the 'Promotions" tab...i did not get the email, seems for some reason that my email preferences had reset to 'do not send'. Earn up to 22,500 bonus points after only three eligible paid stays.

These kind of promos really make people angry and turn them off from Marriott. With the transparency of today's world, doing targeted promotions for things like this is more likely to engender more bad will than good will.

Put me in the 'I got a rock' category. And the thing is...

I think they assume there is no negative effect on those who don't get the promo, who are effectively already locked in?

Ambassador this year, I and I did not get any promo either. Did any Ambassador member get any promo offer?

The guy I work next to go a nice promotion and I've got nothing. Anyone had luck calling in and getting added? What a hassle. |

I'm planning a last-minute escape the cold trip, and haven't reserved anything yet. A promo would make me want to stick with Marriott properties, no promo makes me look elsewhere... |
