Unfortunately yes.

Joining promo code
 

I searched the "fly blue promo", I didn't find anything. Can someone provide a link.

Or better yet, can I get a referral to join Marriott.

I currently have Hilton Diamond status but I switching my job and my new employer uses Marriott.

Please help.

I would love a referral as well (if it helps?). I am about to sign up as I'm staying at a SHS early next week.

I sent you a PM if you want me to refer you. Cheers.

Referral too?
 

DH's only silver and but I think that perhaps I should join,
Could any kind soul pm me with a referral.
TIA
Carolyn

you DH can refer you and get the points. In case he maxed out his 5 referral per year. I can refer you. you have a PM.

Any kind souls want to refer me? I am already a MR member but stuck on Silver :(

:cool:

what is the referral for new members everyone is talking about?
what is the gold referral that people are seeking?

I think that some people have got their wires crossed. The BA and Air France/KLM promotions where instant Gold status were granted have now finished. The 'Refer-a-friend' scheme is still running as before but the new member starts from scratch. As far as I'm aware there is not currently a way to get instant Gold - referred or otherwise.

Glenn is correct.

The refer a friend promo (which goes until end of year I think) gives bonus points to the person referring when the referree stays at Marriotts (1K/shot up to 5 stays) & the same for the referee. It's on the Marriott website.

As we all know, someone can get Silver status by getting a Marriott Visa.

But instant Gold ala Air France, etc, expired end of June or shortly thereafter. Some current members were successful in getting accounts merged; others were not. But right now there's no instant gold referred or otherwise.

Cheers.

Hi all,

I am not normally staying at Marriotts but will do so next week, so I'd like to sign up to MR (with a direct deposit into CO or AA). Any referral would be welcome. Thanks.

airoli, yhpm.

What's the point of being referred when you are not entitled to earn bonus? According to the terms and conditions:
"New members who join through the Refer a Friend program must designate Marriott Rewards points as their earning preference."
Both the referral and referree will not gain any benefits from your first 5 stays this year if you earn airline points thru the stays.

Promotion Code for Joining Marriott Rewards? (Oct-Nov 2008)
 

It seems the deal through the thread is over.

Is there anyone who could refer me for instant gold or know of any other codes before I join Marriott Rewards? I have some hotels to book for next few weeks and I have to stay at a Marriott.

Thanks!

I don't know of any promos going for instant Gold; those are over. There is the refer-a-member program where you & the person referring get 1Kpoints/stay for up to 5 stays. Plus there is a MegaBonus program going on (separate promo/registration) that will garner up to 25K points. And if you get a Marriott Visa you get instant Silver status.

Cheers.
