Lame, Online Marriott finally replied
I asked for Cat 1-5 offer. I'm a SILVER (from Chase Marriott VISA)
but I got a Cat 1-4 offer after 2 stays
What... there is a Cat 1-4 offer still? when everyone else is Cat 1-5?

Has anyone had any success getting the promos switched? I've got the points offer, but would prefer the Cat 1-5 certs.

i LOVE MegaBonus. I'm very glad they extended the free nights certificates to Cat 5 hotels after they recategorized their hotels

Yes, same boat. I prefer the certs. Was told it'll be tracked manually. It is not updated in my account. My account still shows the original points offer.

I guess I will give them a call and beg until I get the switch.
EDIT: Two minutes after I wrote this they replied
Switch granted but adjusted manually about two weeks after promotion is over.

Anyone else has not got any offer yet? I still have not got any. That has never happened to me before. Is the mega bonus really selective? I just did 25 nights for 45k in the summer.

Looks like I'm not on "the List"...Nothing on my Promotion Central page yet.
I will have to call Marriott Rewards like the last promotion.

It is not selective at all. Everyone gets one. There are always technical glitches that seem to affect a large number of members so it doesn't show up automatically.
