Once I finish out the promotion I'll send you my info so it can be updated for both free nights.
I believe all offers sent out on November 10 with the two free nights face this issue. The terms stated December 1, 2015 although in the body of the promotion it said March 31, 2015. It seems like it was an error on starwoods as two dates were given. You confirmed it was an error and that the landing page would be updated with December 31 (not sure if it was). It seems like that march 31 date is stilling the system though and Starwood needs to take a look at it for all registered accounts. I'm weary in sending my info as that means all accounts will not be resolved as they should be.
Can you please make sure Starwood takes a look into this error for all enrolled accounts for the free two nights offer. It has happened to everyone I've spoken to. It's an error across, not just my account. Thanks!

My apologies, but I am unable to view all accounts registered for this that have them in their Earned Awards, so I can't really answer that.
ETA: Since there were several offers made, it could be that your specific offer may expire on 03/31/15. That is why I asked for your SPG account number...so I could specifically reply to your inquiry by seeing what it is you had enrolled in.

"9) Cash & Points Award stays and nights do not qualify toward any promotions requiring stays or nights; however, Cash & Points Award stays and nights from October 1, 2011, onward do qualify as an eligible stay or nights toward earning elite levels."
"(5) Free Night Award stays and nights do not qualify toward any promotions requiring nights or stays; however, Free Night Award stays and nights from October 1, 2011 onward do qualify as an eligible stay or night toward earning elite levels."

I got an offer...
... which had nothing to do with this promo (I think). If I book three stays using the SPG mobile app and pay with my SPG AMEX card, then I get... Now hold on to your hats... 1500 bonus points. That's enough for... absolutely nothing.

I'm racing to make those new bookings.

"We Think You're Ready for More"
Ladies and gentlemen: how many readers on this forum had been invited to join this promotion (mine was received Nov 10 last year)? Kind of a painful promotion for me (as I usually have many nights on each stay)... And wonder how that combines with the Double Play promotion that just came up.
Maybe the Lurkers are back from holidays?

Welcome back William!
Thanks moderator for moving this back to the right thread.
So this is a real twisted promotion... Need to be innovative to break some of my stays into two, as i have overall average of 3 nights+ per stay, even though now i see i got a nice offer from spg!
So, william, this is cumulative to double play, right?

I can't think of any reason why it shouldn't be, but you'd have to satisfy the terms and conditions of both to get both.
After all, it says this same thing in the FAQ for SPG Double Play:
Can I take advantage of other bonus promotions at the same time?
Yes. However, each promotion earns bonuses independently of each other.
