Managed to get in 4 rides with Uber while staying at the StR San Francisco this weekend. Could’ve used Lyft but wanted to get those SPG points while I could. I’ll miss the extra SPG point earnings via Uber.

Ended up with just over 2k point. Probably could have been doubled that if it wasn't devalued this year.

Just had a stay this year at SPG and received email with subject Congratulations: You're All Set to Earn Starpoints with Uber. Guess someone forgot to turn this off.

I got this email today, too!
NOW YOU CAN TAKE UBER TO MORE STARPOINTS.
Congratulations! You've successfully completed a qualifying SPG® stay this calendar year. And because you already linked your SPG and Uber®accounts, you can now tap the Uber app and watch your earnings accelerate.
