And, you have to stay at a Radisson now to be able to convert GP's to FF miles.

I just transfered all my Rad. Goldpoints to AA last night. The rep (Aleshia) was very helpful and confirmed (with a conf#) that I would get 4:1 and that they had all been told to allow some slack until the letters are sent out by Radisson.

All in all a very helpful rep. and a good outcome.

I'd give my right arm to be ambidextrous

Hey a FT gathering at TGIF...wow, sounds like a plan to me!!

I haven't checked this board for over a week and came on to give everyone a heads up on the new conversion ratio with Gold Points. I'm glad to see someone already beat me to it! I just found out a few minutes ago because I was calling them to do my usual weekly transfer of 10K points. The rep told me about the new ratio, but also told me he would transfer all my points at the 4:1 ratio. He said Gold Points would not change to the new ratio until June 1st. Anyway, I told him to transfer all my Gold Points (about 600K) to my AA account.

Curiouser and curiouser. Just called to transfer to NW for FFF2. The minimum is once again 2000 until 6/1 so I was able to transfer only half of the last 4000 I was hoarding and "save" the rest for littleleaguedad's FFF2.

It has been reported that only one transfer at the "old" 4:1 ratio would be allowed between now and June 1. You may want to check with GP once again if your husband would be allowed to transfer 2,000 points instead of "new" minimum of 4,000.

Carlos just transferred 2000 to NW for me and the balance to littleleaguedad and onto NW. All three transactions have already shown up on the Goldpoints site.

Good!

I just cashed out my remaining GoldPoints for miles and was advised by CS that today is the last day for the 4:1 redemption.

Same here.

my 60k GPs just posted today to my FF account as 15k miles...

Yup... i got screwed with a stay that didnt post. the csr said it would have to post by today in order to get the 4:1, which it didnt... guess who aint staying at radisson anymore...
