Lifetime points are missing from the profile section of the website and show as 0 in the Marriott mobile app. However, you may be able to use the work-around referenced in this blog post to see your current Lifetime Points.
You can still view your lifetime points online with the following steps:
If you call Marriott they can also tell you your lifetime points balance.
http://www.marriott.com/marriott/rew...te-benefits.mi As of 20 May, this process does not work. There is no link called "Night Detail" on this page.
To check lifetime balances: (HT to txpenny)
1. Click "Night Detail".
2. Click "Learn More" (under the night total)
3. Click "Marriott Rewards Overview". At this point you're probably no longer logged in (because you've been thrown to an older version of the Marriott website), so log in again.
4. Click "Nights" under your current year's nights. -> The detail you're expecting showing LT nights and points will show up like before.
Lifetime Silver Elite:
250 qualified nights
1.2 million points
Lifetime Gold Elite
500 qualified nights
1.6 million points
Lifetime Platinum Elite
750 qualified nights
2.0 million points
To check your point and night balance, log into your account and click My Account > Account Overview > Nights.
"Elite Lifetime Status is determined by your total qualified nights stayed and points earned throughout the course of your membership – including your paid nights, Elite rollover nights, meeting nights and the nights and points earned on your Marriott Rewards Credit Card."
Points used by members to buyback their previously attained Elite level will be permanently deducted from their Lifetime point balance.
If an elite's point level drops below that required for the level attained, they will drop down to the next Lifetime level until points are accumulated to get them back to the next level.
Lifetime points in addition to nights now display on your Marriott Rewards account. When logged in, click on "Nights" (the blue link below the number representing your current year nights). You'll see the detail of what comprises your current year nights as well as your Lifetime Status nights.
You can still view your lifetime points online with the following steps:
- Go to www.marriott.com and login
- Go to https://www.marriott.com/rewards/rewards-program.mi

Made it!
I cancelled my MR Visa card last month when the end-game was in sight, but I wouldn't be anywhere near having this many points without having had the card and putting all of my business travel on it for the past couple years...

Disagree. Being Lifetime means you don't have to chase "x" amount of nights each year to gain/keep status, which is a huge benefit. My travel has lessened due to bizness being down, but as LTP I know that when I stay at a Marriott property I'm getting exec lounge access, upgrade, enhanced free hi-speed i-net, Plat override if needed, PAG, even if I don't have the 75 nights.
Cheers.

. I can not book a trip for many years to come, but then if my wife and I go for a weekend trip, i know we'll get Economy Plus seating, free checked bags, lounge access at the hotel, free fast internet, and a potential upgrade. Sounds good to me!

Absolutely! I see lifetime status w/ United and Marriott as parts of my retirement plan, like a 401k . I can not book a trip for many years to come, but then if my wife and I go for a weekend trip, i know we'll get Economy Plus seating, free checked bags, lounge access at the hotel, free fast internet, and a potential upgrade. Sounds good to me!

Perhaps you have lifetime status with United through UA directly (as I do with AA) which I agree makes a great combo. However, if you are counting on UA lifetime through MR, I would be a bit skeptical about how long the UA alliance will last. I would not bet on it being around 10 years from now, so personally I am not counting on that element of the MR Plat lifetime benefits.

My guess is that if you stay in lower tier hotels (Fairfield / Springhill), you could end up in this situation. $109/night nets a platinum around 1600/night. This times 655 is a little less than 1.1 million points. Add in some mega-bonus promotions, and there you go.... pretty close. Some hotels are quite cheap in the Marriott portfolio and there are likely some that stay many many nights in those hotels (I did for many nights like this as well).

Extended stay hotels like RIs and TPSes get only 5 pts/$. So it is possible to rack up a lot of nights with not as many points.

along with my "lifetime" Delta Platinum status will hopefully make for a nice retirement situation.

543 nights, 1.35M points. I will retire before I make LT Gold, and even a credit card won't close the gap. Frustrating. LT Silver isn't worth much to someone who's accustomed to Gold benefits.

Don't give up yet! Do you have any SPG points that should come over upon the merger?
