Clarification from Starwood Lurker in post 125:
- In regards to the part of the offer where you can earn 1,000 points for trying a new brand…There is no minimum length of stay, but you only earn it starting with the second brand. So if you only stay at one brand during the promo period, you will not earn this bonus. But if you stay at 2 or more brands, you will earn 1,000 points for each of those brands after the first one even if the stay is only one night.
- You earn on every stay of 2+ nights, so it isn’t about accumulating nights. If you have two stays of 1 night each, you will not earn a bonus. If you have two accounts, you may register for MegaBonus with either or both accounts. You will only be able to earn with one account at a time because you will earn the bonus points in whichever account the stay was booked with. Example: If you have two accounts that are not combined: If you register for MegaBonus with your SPG number and stay with your SPG number, you will earn the bonus points in your SPG account. If you register for MegaBonus with your SPG number but book your stay with your MR number, you will not earn bonus points.

We are told if these stays are all done in one account, are booked through eligible channels, and occur during the earning period they should count as 5 brands, and get 4,000 bonus points.

Seriously though I am starting to question if I actually trust Marriott's IT department to have a system that stores my personal details / credit cards etc!

Obviously a huge generalization but from SPG employees now working for Marriott I know, I get the feeling generally morale is pretty low and just hoping things improve and this is a blip rather than a demonstration of whats to come! It has I feel been a very tough couple of months (although in some ways probably 6 months) for people acustomed to being able to offer a far higher level of service / information / service recovery than they have recently been able to do!

holy crap. I'm so confused with these promotions. Is the 29 ways promotion the same as the mega bonus one that started on Sept 26th? because they look the same to me. also the promotions are straight POOP. I have 30 day stays and this is useless to me. Guess I can tell the FD to check me out every 2 days.....then it would be worth it.

29 Ways to Stay Contest
I've been looking forward to the start of this contest. https://29ways.marriott.com/coming-soon
Terms say that it was to start on 10/4 at 1000 eastern.
Unfortunately, the website says that they're still putting the finishing touches on the contest.

Just wouldn't want you to deal with the hassle and then not get anything for it....

My edge stay was not awarded the mega bonus. My next stay did. Do you think CSR know about edge stays? I am not sure if I reference the Lucker will make any difference .

Is this mega bonus promo and 29 ways promo targeted to certain members?
I can't seem to see or register for the mega bonus promo. Am a Lifetime Plat Prem Elite, if it makes a difference. I log into the MR account and click 'Promotions' and shows up with a big fat 0.
First time I can remember that a mega bonus is not across for all members?
