You get 15k points for any stay paid for with cash or points.

"Eligible stay...means a night at a Participating Property that is booked at an Eligible Rate, identified in the Participating Property’s reservation system as eligible for points."

If I book one night at the Radisson Cairo for 9000 points, does that mean they're paying me 6000 points to stay?

Why wouldn't it?

Bookings where you redeem points to pay for the entire stay are unlikely to trigger the bonus and count as an eligible stay for a promotion like this. Or at least that has been my experience with prior Radisson promos.

This one is different. Read the t&c's.

Isn't this another one of those promos where they will let you register, then deny your bonus points because you weren't actually targeted by email?

dimon84

it is the one indeed! I chatted to FB agent and asked if am eligible for any of the three versions of this promo, she said no.

So, enticed by this promo, I redeemed 5K points to stay at a bargain basement Park Inn. Even though I read the T&Cs, I still was pleasantly surprised when the 15K bonus appeared in my account, thus netting 10K for the stay. Very pleased.

Interesting - I decided to get a try at this through my corporate travel rates once I got one for just under 200 EUR for a night's stay in Rome, topped it up with a 50+ EUR dinner only to find it wasn't eligible for either points or the bonus.

Anyone get their 15,000 bonus points for 1 night with this promo ?
It's supposed to be valid until the end of the year.

NOPE! I'm in a pissing match with them right now. I received the inducement to register and stay. I ended booking one of my work trips a couple of weeks ago at a Country Inn to match this promo.
No bonus points - have been emailing with them back and forth. They keep pointing out that one has to register via a targeted email (which I did).

What a colossal waste of time this was - the hotel was fairly terrible and I would have been happier at my usual Hampton Inn.

Did you make a printout of the registration confirmation page and if so have you sent that to them?

OskiBear

Yes! I saved it because I figured these guys would give me a hard time. They are alleging I didn't enroll by being targeted via email and then navigating over via that email to register. I did email them the PDF of my confirmation of registration. But, they are basically saying I incorrectly registered, that I wasn't targeted, and my registration is invalid.

So disgusted by all of this - I literally only stayed at the crappy Country Inn because of the promo. Would have been much happier elsewhere, but I can't exert more energy on these losers.

This was their response - gives them an "out" - but I'm not sure how you can prove you navigated over from a targeted email

"Thank you for your reply and for the attached file.
I really do want to assist you getting that Promo, however, a Terms and Condition is attached to a promo for a reason. Even on your attachment, on the lower part, on the second paragraph (ii) states:
To be eligible for the Promotion, you must: (i) be a Radisson RewardsTM (formerly Club CarlsonSM) member; (ii) have received a private email invitation to participate in the promotion ("Eligible Member"); (iii) register online at the link provided via email for the Promotion prior to checkout; (iv) provide your Radisson Rewards member number at the time of reservation or at check-in; and (v) book and complete at least one (1) Eligible Stay during the Promotion Period. Pre-existing reservations for stays during the Promotion Period are not eligible. "

Do you still have the email (or a printout of it)? I still have mine (dated Mon, Sep 17, 2018 10:02 am Pacific Time), and it says "Hello, <my name>" at the top, and then:

"Register today and earn 15,000 bonus points when you book your next stay at any of our more than 1,100 properties worldwide.

This exclusive one time bonus offer is available to you now through December 28, 2018.+"

so it seems pretty clear that I was targeted. (Though I noticed my "register now" link in that email no longer works, in that it just pulls up a blank page.)

OskiBear

Unfortunately, I didn't save the original email where they targeted me with the promo. Evidently that's what they are hanging their hat on. It's pathetic that one would have to save that to prove it.
Chalk it up to a basic lesson learned. I'm probably just going to burn my points, cancel the credit card and kiss off Radisson Rewards
