My Mother just booked the AARP rate and was concerned that it would not qualify. She called Wyndham to confirm that it was an eligible rate. The CSR said that the rate was eligible to earn points. If it is eligible to earn points, it should qualify for the 16,000 point bonus.

I don't trust that Wyndham CSRs have any clue what's going on.

Got a few questions

I payed $78 for a stay at hoffman estates sdn followed the email link.
received 395 points instead of 10x points, anyone else see this?

No stay has posted also towards my 4x summer promo, does it just not update very quickly. Or can we not double dip?

Are we eligible for the 1000 pt promo for going to a new hotel ?

I would think it would qualify. I have received points, and qualified for other promotions, for stays in which I paid AARP or Government rates. So they should count as qualifying rates for the promotion.

Has anyone at all who got the email, booked through the link in the email and completed a stay received their 16K bonus points? If so, what rate did you pay?

I was told that it would take the full 6-8 weeks before they post.

Another data point...

Another data point at HAWTHORN SUITES BY WYNDHAM ORLANDO ALTAMONTE SPRINGS:

Booked a STATE Gov Rate (I'm a state employee) on 8/31 and did a no-show, had my point earning preference set to United Miles, the stay was posted on 9/1 with 0 points with a notation that it is a non-qualifying rate. I have checked my United account and no mile from the hotel has been posted. Prior to this, I have inquired if STATE GOV rate qualifies for points and promo points earning, and the answer given (by both hotel and Wyndham CSR) is "Yes". I called the hotel to inquire the "non-qualifying stay" notation, and was told to call Wyndham Rewards. They confirmed that all GOV rates are qualifying rates.

So I will have to call Wyndham Rewards tomorrow (they are closed for Labor Day) to sort out this issue...

My credit card got charged for that night though... and the stay got posted, even though it was posted as "non-qualifying stay" with 0 points. If it is a "non-qualifying stay", I'm afraid it's not eligible for bonus points earning....

Interesting, I had a no show as well, but only because I put the wrong date. Mine wasnt a special rate and I didnt get charged. I think you are right. Definantly give them a call.
