when faced with that question, I ran out and bought a zebra, came back and honestly answered the question that I DO own a zebra, and still got disqualified.

Unbelievably, just five hours after your post, I have had both for the first time.

There is definitely a pattern here. High value accounts are the ones being frozen.

Burn those points, guys!

I discovered the trick is to tick the box "none of the above".

The same for a few weeks is now true for the Cara restaurant gift card here in Canada. It's very frustrating. At least thus far that is not a requirement for IHG.

anyone know how to switch it? hit me up with a PM or a workaround.
The only workaround I've found is to use multiple phone numbers and then keep track of them. For example I've redeemed at my parents house with their land line. Fortunately I have two lines at work as well.

Is there any online phone service that has worked at all? E.g. google voice types (which doesn't work).

Is anyone else noticing a high volume of phishing emails sent to the email they used to sign up for e-rewards? I have a unique email address for my e-rewards account and I've suddenly started receiving high volumes of well targeted phishing emails to this account and this account only...
