On the topguest site, it shows my last check ins on July 12, despite several since. I haven't written yet. Will give it till mid-week next week.

I'm experiencing the same thing. Topguest was working fine until July 12. Since then, none of my check-ins have registered.

Hmmm. I wonder if they've run out of money.

Looks like July 14th was the last day most of us got points.

My latest points on topguest was dated July 17.

My latest points with TopGUest was yesterday. Then there was a lag where three check-ins were all recorded as 19 July (for 18, 19, and 20 July).

So who knows?

A delay of a week or so is nothing unusual in the context of the history of TopGuest postings, is it? In other words, aren't week-long delays something that have been observed many times before, only to catch up once the delay is over? I wouldn't be concerned unless the current delay far exceeds anything from the past.

I'm still on an old WimMo 6.5.5 phone (waiting for new phones to be released), using Opera 9.7. I am testing using m.foursquare.com linked to Twitter. Not checking in at any Topguest locations yet -- want to see how it's working.

So I'm at home, and I checked in at home. That seemed to work fine last night. This morning I checked into my company's main office. I'm still at home at it's across town. And that worked too.

So, if I'm all the way across town... how does Topguest know where I am really?

Mind you, I'm not looking to cheat the system, but use it correctly.

Thanks.

Interesting, my last points were also the 12th... I wonder if something happened to them on the 12th. They also are no longer responding to my email inquiries (only one to say they were looking at the problem and would get back to me soon ... about a week ago).

I have not had checkins post to topguest since around that time as well. Have not attempted to write them though. Hopefully this gravy train hasn't ended! There was a hiccup of several days a month or so ago as well.

My checkins for Hilton and Choice aren't even registering in Topguest.. problem started around the 12th as others mention. Other programs are still working fine. For those who say your points aren't posting, are your checkins registering on TG?

The past 7 days of Holiday Inn, Best Western, and Choice just posted for me a couple hours ago.

Hilton isn't working for me either, but I don't know if it is because my local Hiltons don't participate or if there is a problem with Top Guest. They have NEVER posted in the past (I only started doing this for a few weeks).

Only Doubletrees count for Hilton.

I have a Hilton Doubletree that doesn't work either.
