I don't think so, I am newly minted PP and also have the same message "Congratulations! You’ve achieved Platinum level."

Maybe this is the new lifetime status being acknowledged.

I don't think so ... I'm in the same situation as you, but have only achieved lifetime gold under the new rules (Just 14 nights to go for lifetime plat).

The programmers just didn't make a separate congratulations message for Plat Premier.

Cheers,

Not entirely true, I got a useless free WSJ app. Wonder how they'll top it this year!!

I just realized I've made PP this year for the first time.

Mine says the same and I'm only Lifetime Silver (achieved before the change).

??? Your profile says PP, so you'll only drop to Plat IF MR did not extend your PP status. Seems like there have been many extensions.

That's not what we are saying ... we are saying that we would only be lifetime silver/gold if we had no earned status this year. Thus, the congrats message is NOT about recognizing lifetime platinum status.

Why would they make a distinction? It is not as if anyone else who works for Marriott does.

IF they even recognize it as an elite level at all! Very few for me.

Never said they should, just trying to give an explanation to the poster asking why he/she was seeing the "Congrats on Platinum" message when he/she just got promoted to Platinum Premier.

I guess you missed the point... MR has soft landings so if he was PP last year, the lowest he should go is Plat this year even if he had NO stays last year. That's not to say MR hasn't messed up and the welcome back message only goes up to Plat with the PPs thrown in.

Not helpful.

I don't have my package yet but PP agent said something about mobile solar phone charger, discount on resort fees ...

I just can't find a comprehensive list for 2013 benefits.
