Agreed but it would be nice for someone to post here that did have the 16k post. I had the same thing where mine was set to miles and the 16k didn't post with my stay as most bonus's do with Wyndham. So I'm wondering if this (mile selection) is it or not. Some promo's have allowed both in the distant past depending on where you live. The T&Cs would normally state you must be set to points in recent promotions. And this one is very odd that it doesn't.

I received the following Tweet back from Wyndham when I asked them the question of earning miles vs. points for your stay:
"Hello, regardless of your earning preference if you qualify for the promotion you will receive 16000 points. "
So that is good news. If staying at a Wyndham Resort or Hawthorn hotel you get 500 miles per stay for most airlines, 600 with Southwest. Through September 13 you get 4x points or miles starting with your 2nd stay. If you select Southwest, this means you'll get 2,400 Southwest points, which equals $40 towards Southwest travel.

FYI, and you probably already know this, but you can only get the bonus a max of 3 times. I'm assuming you have additional reasons for the "4 more stays", and aren't expecting a bonus for any more than the first 3.

The promo said 6 to 8 weeks, I think. I've had 2 stays, one closing in on two weeks ago, and no bonus points yet.
