Gold status exp.
 

Hello,

last year I got Gold status in MR thanks to a promotion for Flying Blue Plat.
I have never received the card but in the few stays I got the corresponding perks(upg to executive room, extra points,...).
I have not stayed at Marriott properties any near the 50 nights needed to requalify as Gold, but I do not know when my status will expire.
Is at the end of Feb., like some airlines, or April as in HH, or...?

I did some search but could not find it.

Thanks for the input.

Good through end of February.

Many who got status under that promo were lucky to get Gold status through 2/2010. :)

SAVIOX, ask Marriott for the card, it should say 02/2010

Possible to merge accounts? I signed up for this promotion and was able to get Gold, but I just realized I had an older legacy account with a few thousand points in it (maybe 10-15k). Is merging the two possible? Would I be a fool to try to do this?

I also got the gold status when opening a new MR account even though I already had an existing account. Probably within a month I called and asked if they could merge the two accounts....which they did. I love having the status and have moved all my stays to Marriotts. This is actually a great PR "get their attention and business!" move. Unfortunately, I can't imagine having 50 paid nights a year to keep it. :( Sure hope my status remains until Feb. of 2010.

yes you can do this.

I got it via being Gold in BA and on the card it says 02/2010 as well.

Thanks very much for all your input.

I will ask for a new card but I will wait to merge accounts because I would not like to be downgraded to basic level :rolleyes:. After all MR points do not expire so there is always time for this;).
