Wrong number of points issued
My wife and I each recently had a stay and got the wrong number of points (like 551 instead of 4475). A DM to the Bonvoy twitter sorted it out, but it seems weird to be wrong 2 out of 2 times and not like a 0 was missing, Anybody else notice this lately?

I too noticed a pattern where I'm consistently getting the wrong points. I first noticed after my recent trip in March - the number of points I got was 1/10th of what I expected and I'm also still waiting on the credit for the nights I stayed. Once I started digging into my history, I realized that my stays from October and November last year are also egregiously off - I'm getting approximately 1 (not 10) base point per dollar spent on a qualifying stay (and these are all legitimate stays booked through Marriott's websites at hotels that are not subject to lower point conversions). The application of my platinum bonus has also been inconsistent. Overall, I think the differential is about 90K in points when including the platinum bonus. I submitted a request online but there's no email confirmation that my request even went through and I have no idea when this will be fixed. Any suggestions?

Turns out somehow my earnings setting was toggled to miles rather than points so instead of getting 15 points per dollar I was getting one united mile 😤 at least I caught it now but so many points lost 😭
So don't be like me, make sure your selection is right.
