It's not as good as the Marriott social media promotion, but there are uses for even a modest LQ stash of points.

I've gotten the reply tweet for all the NFL ones I've done this year. Finally checked my account today though to find out all my points are expiring between 1-10 days of getting into my account. I haven't used my Marriott account in several years, and indeed had no idea they would be "subject to immediate expiration". Just assumed this would restart my account activity. Disappointing, as I can't think this would be a common thing in other programs, but my own fault for not checking things out before.

Marriott expiration is 24 months from date of last Qualifying Activity.

I also hadn't used my Marriott account for several years before getting points through the NFL twitter and other social media offers. None of my points from these offers have expired. I think that you should contact Marriott to see if you can get your points back

yes, I did. I had a message from them thanking me for being a loyal rewards member and saying it was my anniversary. I got 300 as a gold member and my husband got 50 as a regular member
