* - some report that MR told them this is not a valid promotion option

If You Did Not Receive an Offer
... And then there are a number of people who (as in every MegaBonus cycle) have not had any version of this promo show up in their account. You can try concating Marriott to fix that (and an interactive method such as a phone call may be more likely to succeed than a non-interactive method like email).

Once You Get a MegaBonus
... Once you call or email Marriott and are given a MegaBonus, it will take several days to show in your account. Be patient.

If Your Were Granted a Change to Your MegaBonus Offer
... Your old MegaBonus offer will continue to show on the Marriott site. The agent you spoke to noted your account and will usually make the adjustment about a week after the MegaBonus period ends. If the adjustment is not made by then, call Marriott Rewards and they will adjust it manually for you.

Option 1 for me - as an infrequent Silver then this isn't going to incent me to re-direct stays from Hilton (given their Triple Points promotion announced just after the Marriott one), whereas Free Night Certs would

It is generally most relevant to compare the same date rang year over year than to try to compare spring to fall or fall to summer. The offer levels have tended to vary more between the time periods.

Got the 25k after 20 nights + 2000 points offer as a Plat with 100+ nights on the year.

Unfortunately most of my nights happened during the summer months with no bonus - doubt I'll be able to get to the 20 nights necessary to take advantage of the new promo during the dates in question.

omg I just realized why the promo didn't show up for me - I had my account as miles-earning instead of points-earning because my next stay will be a 15k United miles promo stay that only works if I have it set to earn miles. Duh.

The one I got is 2:

"Earn double points on every paid stay*, starting with your second stay, up to 20,000 bonus points"

Aren't we past the time by which the offers were to post? Once again, nothing has posted for me. You would think that since this happens over and over again for so many of us, Marriott would fix their programming. It would seem hiring one programmer to fix the issue would be cheaper than having many people call in, each one taking up a phone agent's time. Plus, I'm probably not the only one tired of having to call in about this.

You would think. Not mention the people who don't know you can call and think that they are genuinely not eligible.

It would appear that I am not the only one who has yet to receive an offer, "unique" or otherwise.

Earn double points on every paid stay, starting with your second stay, up to 20,000 bonus points for me. I'm still 9 stays short of HH Diamond on the year so I doubt this will make me swing much business towards Marriott but we'll see.

Same old boring promo from Marriott. You would think not having a Summer promo would give them time to come up with something a bit more creative. The alcohol must be running dry over in Utah. Oh wait...

It's 7:45 PM ET and nothing shows up for me. Marriott Concierge said everything would be up by 5 PM. Evidently there are some IT issues.
