Plat, still waiting.

I just got mine, the 40,000 points offer. Feeling sorry for myself as I haven't had free certs for ages and I prefer certs as most of my travel is Asia.

I'm not sure why people think they've clamped down. Three items a year the wording implies you can't change, a few people get denied and the vast majority are successful. I think Marriott relies on the fact that 99.9% of their members are not plugged in to sites like this and won't even try.

Got the 55k offer.

As a platinum and just having finished the last mega bonus (25 nights) still no offer...
|
I gave Marriott a fair amount of my business last year and have had the Cat 5 offers the last couple of times. This time I got the 35/50k after 20/25 nights. I do have an 11 night Springhill stay planned where I don't want to bounce around properties, but 9 more nights to get 35k seems anticlimactic when in the past it would take 4 stays to get say two cat 4s worth about the same.
By comparison, IHG is giving me 87k for 8 nights, albeit with a few hoops to jump through. But 87k/8 vs. 35k/9 is not much of a contest. I still have 4 Cat 5s to use up this year... it might be time to give Marriott a few months off of revenue stays other than my 11 night stay, and see what the summer holds. |
