Mine have started trickling in. About a third of my Choice check-ins over the past 2 months have posted within the last week. Before that, I was experiencing a drought similar to yours.

I'm having similar issues with Hilton.
Mind you, this isn't the first time this issue has cropped up. Given its spotty tracking and reporting, it's sometimes a wonder TopGuest is working at all.

Huh?

Topguest's email address is bouncing back ([email protected]), no matter which email account I send from. And other users are reporting Topguest strangeness of late. Anyone?

For 3 days in a row, none of my check ins via facebook have registered a response from topguest. I have had to email them after the 24hr window and ask for my points. I don't know what is going on. I have several programs and hotels I check in each day and they have not posted. It all started this past Sunday. Before that, my check in got a response within 5 min with my 50 point posting in my account within 30min. I agree with above response in the fact if topguest is even working.

I contacted them by e-mail and they indicated that there connectivity problems with Facebook. Once I switched to Foursquare everything is back to normal again.

Could someone who has successfully had points post from Topguest to Choice please confirm the correct way to enter your account number? My account number is a mix of alpha and numeric characters with a hyphen like GP-AAA9999 Should I put the whole thing or just the AAA9999 part?

You need to enter only the "AAA9999", no need of GP. I accumulated about 1600 points and none of them posted. I contacted TG last week and they said there are some connector issues with choice and the points should post by end of Nov. This week 250 points posted in my account. That's first time ever. Now i am waiting for the rest.

I check in every day with Foursquare and my points usually post in a matter of minutes. I use the Foursquare Check-in Firefox plug-in and it works great.

I feel pretty silly. I checked in at the same Hilton near my house probably 5 times before realizing that it doesn't count. Oh well.

Another data points, I have over 1000 Choice hotel points in topguest. I use Foursquare to check in. I have been checking in since Mid-October and none of the Choice points have been posted. Other hotels are posting fine for me.

Same here, have over 1500 points in topguest, but haven't posted to my account yet either. Topguest says it can take 6-8 weeks. I have hit the 6 week and will be at 8 weeks shortly.

Still zero luck with Kimpton here. I stayed at a Kimpton for three days last week, checked in from the lobby, and still zilch.
