Marriott Rewards - Plus Points
 
Nice, thanks OP! Reminds me of TopGuest.

heffa May 8, 2014 2:39 pm

Just signed up... I usually tag myself at Marriott anyways, so this is a great way of earning some additional points.

Marriott Rewards - Plus Points
 
Signed up and connected facebook and found 4 pages to like for an easy 1000 pts. I already received an email for each like letting me know after I like them for a week then the points will post so hopefully next week I will see them.

VickiSoCal May 8, 2014 4:09 pm

Cool. I clean up my FB every month or so, deleting old checkins so this works.

This is the disclosure that comes up when you register for the promo:

"Marriott Rewards Plus Points will receive the following info: your public profile, friend list, email address, News Feed, relationships, relationship interests, birthday, notes, status updates, checkins, education history, events, groups, hometown, interests, current city, photos, questions, religious and political views, personal description and likes."

Also its only select Marriott, Rennaisance and Autograph properties. No Ritz-Carlton or other Marriott-owned.
I like free points, but I think I will pass.

How long did it take to get the confirmation emails?

ETA: It took 2 hrs for the emails to come through with the confirmation.

Marriott Rewards - Plus Points
 
I got them within a couple hours, probably even quicker. I also tried a foursquare checkin at a Renaissance hotel and a couple hours later got an email saying 25 pts have been added to my account and sure enough they already had dropped 25 pts in there.

Is there anyway to convert my Ritz Carlton rewards back to Marriott?

Get Rewarded for social media activity - Rewards Plus
 
Did anyone else get this E-mail? I got it yesterday.

Beat the crowd. Be one of the first to earn with Plus Points. Now through November 8, 2014, earn up to 2,000 Marriott Rewards® points each month by engaging with us on select social networks with Autograph Collection® Hotels, Renaissance® Hotels and Marriott Hotels®.

https://www.marriottrewardspluspoints.com/

I signed up today - rewards plus wants to see your social media data but does not post for you or to you. I "Liked" rewards plus on Facebook and found a reason to use one of their hash-tags on twitter and about two hours later received E-mails thanking me for my activity and advising points would be deposited in my account. ^

Now only if they gave me points for time on FT :D

CJKatl May 9, 2014 12:04 pm

Already being discussed here: http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/marri...us-points.html

Mods - please consider moving this over to that thread.

hw711 May 9, 2014 12:08 pm

I got points for
-liking Marriott rewards on fb
-following Marriott on twitter
-checking in on fb

Nothing for
-sharing on fb
-retweeting on twitter
-using hashtag on fb
-using hashtag on twitter
-checking in on four square

not sure if I just wasn't doing it right or what.

Which pages did you like on FB? Those hotels pages on the list?

g11 May 9, 2014 3:28 pm

Can we a make a post with links to all participating hotel's Facebook pages and Twitter accounts?

That would be called a wiki, which anyone can do.

Cheers.

Will do. Thanks!

twoner32 May 9, 2014 7:25 pm

how about a list of FB pages to like?

crimsona May 9, 2014 7:27 pm

My account signed up properly, the wife's did not. She was originally miles, changed to points but still no go.

It mentions a max of 2k points every 30 days (and not per month). Will have to be careful there, would hate to have missed some due to being 1 day too early

GoPhils May 10, 2014 6:41 am

This is probably a smart move by Marriott, but isn't it them essentially "paying" for positive reviews? "#LoveMarriottRewards" haha. Although I guess we'll see people using the hashtags and then complaining about something - wonder if they'll still get the points :-)

It also says you don't even have to stay at the specific properties to post about them. That seems kinda dumb...

cba13 May 10, 2014 10:29 am

The FB pages I liked:
Marriott, Marriott Rewards, Autograph Collection, and Renaissance Phoenix Downtown

LesBesTes May 10, 2014 4:59 pm

Has anyone gotten credit for liking/following a specific property on Facebook or Twitter? It isn't clear to me if that action actually results in 250 points from the rules. Last night, I liked the main Marriott, Renaissance, and Autograph Collection accounts and got emails about all of those (points to be awarded in 7 days). But I also liked a few specific properties on the official list, but I have not gotten any emails indicating those would give me any points.

Also used hashtags on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. Only got an email about Instagram. No credit yet for Twitter or Facebook.

donrull May 10, 2014 5:11 pm

Am I reading this correct? Can we simply like 8 properties and get 2,000 points?

The data mining is precisely WHY they are doing it too. I am one of the hold outs who refuses to have a Twitter or FB account. Unfortunately Google and Yahoo! pretty much have all of us pegged down to what you are thinking at this exact moment anyways. lol

I'm sure after posting this I'll start seeing ads for Twitter and FB in my surfing..... sad. You can run but can't hide.

I keep a separate Facebook account and a separate Twitter account just for promos like this. Neither of those accounts are connected to my actual friends. (These accounts have 0 Facebook friends, and 0 Twitter followers.)

So there's no data to be mined, and none of my real friends will ever see these posts.

I'm currently getting an error message. I put together these lists of twitter and facebook profiles. Keep in mind you'll only be credited once every 24 hours per social action, so don't like/follow these all at once. This list originally appeared on a blog post I wrote about this offer.

Marriott Properties:Renaissance PropertiesFacebook

From the FAQ.
https://www.marriottrewardspluspoint...b2a2622a69.png

So most social actions are limited to 1/day, but Facebook likes do not have that restriction.

Thanks, I was reading the actual terms & conditions and it says limited to one social action per day.

animalj7 May 11, 2014 7:26 pm

So even though Likes/Follows do not have an activity limit per day, they are limited to 2,000 points per 30 days?

That's correct.

prmetime May 12, 2014 6:50 pm

I have successfully link my account with FB, Twitter and Instagram but have not received any email, or points? Could it be that the system is just overwhelmed at present? (I realize its in Beta).

crimsona May 12, 2014 7:34 pm

I did a twitter hashtag and liked 8 pages. I did see the 25 points post about 8 hours later. Received 9 emails in my facebook-linked email address thanking me for liking or tweeting
