I didn't see my Continental points post for a week or so and then they all came in at once in one day last week. Sometimes they just get hung up, not as prompt at Hilton with their postings.

So far so good.

Got a 50 point sign on bonus with Holiday Inn, 2 check-ins since Wednesday, 150 points have posted.

Checked in at Best Western earlier today and the 50 points have posted as well.


All check-ins are via FourSquare.

This is going to be awesome for US Grand Slam Promo 2012. (hoping they have it...)

Got an update regarding Topguest to Priorityclub points not posting since December. Seems like they were stuck somewhere. I checked into a Crowne Plaza past weekend on Facebook, got the e-mail, and much to my surprise found about 2000 points posted in my Priorityclub account from Topguest in about 40 single transactions of 50 points each. These must be the ones missing since December.

If I check in at the airport both on Facebook and on Foursquare, will I get 100 United points instead of just 50? And can I only get credit for one check in per day at the airport?

I ve been hitting this quite a bit for the 50 hotel points...so I got a nasty email telling me your account has suspicious activity and if you don't stop we will cancel the account.

Are they serious? Will I have to stay "home" for a while and get back in it later? Any comments?

Did you do multiple check-ins per day at different chains?

Well after about a month and a half of no points showing up for Hilton, my points for checkins during that time period posted this week all at once. ^ Hopefully I didn't lose out on any points, but at least my checkins weren't all for naught.

I used to check in at 4 different chains/day and received the email several months ago. Now I only check in at 1 airport and 2 hotel chains and give couple of hours between each check in.

Thanks for the comments. Has anyone had their account killed?

Edited for "clarity"

Mine have been posting to my BW account same/next day. Although I haven't checked in since 11 March. Located in UK and using Facebook.
