Mine have started to post as well. Sadly for me, the hotel I'm spending 4 nights a week in isn't participating, so I think the 10K 25 night bonus might be a stretch for me.

No bonus points so far. The stay was at a Design Hotel, should that matter.

Just to confirm as I understand each SPG member are entitled for the stay credits of up to 3 rooms maximum.
Does this mean if I booked at the participating Le Meridien for 1 night x 3 rooms . I would technically getting 1000 starpoints x 3 room = 3000 starpoints?
Thank you,

Just completed a one night stay in Paris. Stayed September 17-18.
Points and Plat bonus posted one day after, as usual. The 2 night credits for the promotion also posted the next day.
The bonus 1000 points posted on Wednesday September 20. So far so good. The only thing.
Waiting for the extra 250 bonus points to post (targeted promo for booking member rate).

Bonus points not posted yet for me either, after 3 stays since the 15th. Called last night and the rep said this promo sometimes takes awhile to post, possibly up to a month.
