FAQs

Q : Which points are doubled ?
A : Double points are only applicable to the base points you’ll earn on a stay.

Hope this helps some folks...
  • I called in today to inquire on the points posting, and after 5-10 min, the rep came back and stated that the points posted as part of the "Extra" amounts with each stay.
  • Then, I did the math, and it checked out after subtracting 500 or 1000 from each Extra amount depending on property.
  • Ex: (2,864 Base + 1,432 Elite + 3,864 Extra). Back out 1,000 from the 3,864 Extra.

That is correct for the Double points promo. The weekend bonus has never posted.

I called Marriott today, and the agent I spoke to had no idea what bonus I was talking about. I asked to speak to a supervisor. He said he was a supervisor.

I told him the promo ran from Mar 19 to June 4. He insisted that this was a double points promo and not a weekend bonus promo. I read him the T&Cs above.

He insisted that those points would be coming from Amex and not Marriott just like the monthly points. I said there is no way for Amex to know whether I have a weekend stay or not. All they see is a charge on the statement. Who knows if it was prepaid, or charged a few days late.

He tried to disqualify some of my stays because they were only a Friday or a Saturday night stay. I re-read the T&Cs to him.

In the end, he ran out of excuses and finally gave me my missing points.
It looks like my points were finally posted today so I'm curious if you got double credited.

At the risk of jinxing this and having a clawback, I had one qualifying stay and just received 4500 points?

Yes! I wonder why they can't do this in a timely fashion so as to meet their own deadlines.

It shows up in the app as:

Q1 2019 Double Take CC Kicker
Nothing on the website yet, other than total balance is up by 2000 pts. Anyhow, will call in to return the extra 2000 pts I pocketed.
