Twice I've had to file a "Missing Stay Request" for the 500 bonus points for a weekend stay. Both at the same hotel. First one posted quickly after the request. Waiting on the second one. My other weekend stays during the promo have posted correctly.

The weekend bonus hasn’t posted for anyone. It will post at the end of the promo.

Thank you! Yes, I am looking for my welcome points and my daily green choice points lumped in there and just can't seem to make that work with my double base points. So I never know what's missing...

Agreed! Trying to figure them out drives me nuts, the math never ends up right Mostly MAGC missing but that has his own thread by now.

I'm still surprised they have issues with tieout though. It's an extremely simple calculation with basic input variables; a spreadsheet that does all this took 2 hours to build. Most of the time was pulling the Gold and Plat welcome bonuses and MAGC points etc.

I say this as an IT systems guy. How does this go wrong this often...

Appreciate this clarification as I have a $2000 stay with check-in on June 3 and I wasn't sure if I'd be getting double points for a stay that crosses over the ending boundary. Looks like that info is in the FAQ too which I didn't see until I expanded the wiki.

Going to be interesting to see how the tracker handles these last few stays when they eventually post, including those that straddle the Jun 4 boundary, given it already thinks it’s ‘closed’.

I had the targeted double points promo as well, so earned 37.5 points per dollar for qualifying stays of two nights or more.

My last stay is still yet to post, but I will wind up netting approx 185k bonus points. My good luck these promos matched up with an unusually large number (for me) of expensive multi-night stays.
