I think it's correct for me. It should be (number of properties - 1) x 2K, right? I had 8 brands.

Same for me, minus 1. I think the T&C stated after your first stay/brand. As expected an award did not count, also, a booking from OTA did not count.

Mine shorted me 5 brands, in addition to the 1 brand expected.
Also still waiting on a stay from mid Sept to post for the fall MB. This has been a terrible fee months for MR. I'm over 100 stays, and was going to try for PP, but definitely moving my stays to SPG now.

If the callers only have their information via phone, I am not sure they will be able to challenge it. The printed terms were clear that the 2K started with the second brand.

Received my brand bonus today - 10k points total (6 brands + 2 award stays at duplicate brands, so 5 stays total were eligible) which is accurate per the T&C's. Took long enough but happy to have the points.
