IHG rep told me that there is an upcoming change to e-rewards coming up, so headsup on that.

But since its not official yet, they gave me my elite qualifying points for this week's transfer.

So what do you mean - you had that come up and they fixed it or what?

Because I had this happen last night and I was just traveling in the US, where I live. I've never had it happen before...

I reached out to e-Rewards via Twitter and they got someone to contact me back. They terminated my account claiming that the data they received from me was unusable based on certain quality checks they perform. I wrote in response that I took umbrage with their assessment; especially, given the fact that I had been honestly answering their surveys since 2005. I also felt the timing was convenient as I was increasingly encountering issues getting proper credit for my time. After tallying my redemptions (including my final two redemptions), I received just over $4k in miles, points, etc. For those of you who just opened new accounts, how's that working out?

No problems with mine other than point inconsistencies between their website and mobile app. But u can redeem from which ever shows the more points.

Did another IHG redemption (I need to rebuild my points balance, EQ or not, anyways) and made my screengrab of the T&C at time of redemption. I'll let y'all know how they post, probably on Tuesday morning.

Ugh, that sounds bad. Well, I just redeemed the miles I had and I'll let things rest a few days while that goes through. But it's a shame as nothing has changed and I too have received a heck of a lot of value over the years based on getting a lot of surveys related to my company. Bummed. But thanks for getting back to share what you know.

Does anyone know when they send the Alaska miles redemptions? (ie, is there a consistent day of the week, etc,, as people describe for many of the partners?)

FYI my IHG points NON-qualifying again.

I've already sent a few complaints after last week redemptions. Gotta do it again... and again... and again. If any of you knows how to get to someone in charge instead of them useless muppets I have to deal with, please do tell.

They did reply that "Our records show that your past e-Rewards points was counted as qualifying points. Please allow for the recent (...) points from e-Rewards to be reflected as qualifying points." but nothing has been done about it anyway...

For IHG last week I had to do 3 rounds of email with them to get my elite qualifying posted.

Noticed that people who responded at US night-time (presumably from an outsourced center) just gave generic boiler plate responses which I doubt they even read. After replying back a few times, during US day-time someone replied back and credited me the elite qualifying points.
