Well, if you're going use GoFree awards, then it's simple: Do you expect to pay more then about $110 (including taxes) for hotel you'll redeem those 8k points plus anotehr 7k points? If so, then you make money at $56, though it depends how much over a $110ish you expect your redemption to be as to how much money you make at $56.

(8k x 2 is a bit over 15k, and $56 time 2 is a bit over $110. Plujs I'm not clear you meant $56 before or after taxes.)

Unfortunately, if you're going to use those points for GoFast, awards, AFAIK it's pretty impossible to calculate, because they're so all over the place in value from one hotel to the next (in terms of the cash copay), while GoFree is fixed at 15k program-wide so is extremely simply to calculate.

I called a supervisor since my Dec stay at Harrahs still hadn't posted. She claimed that this promo had ended early, in mid Jan. I didn't need to argue with her on that, and just pointed out that my stay was in Dec. In the end, she had to manually award me goodwill points since their computers are too messed up to recognize Caesar's properties booked under the promo.

Now, on 1-30, I booked one more stay in late Feb. That should qualify right, or was the agent correct about the promo ending early?

I did not automatically receive credit for stays on 30 and 31 Jan - and in fact, the promo link had disappeared from the website by then, replaced by an ad for the now-current 15k for two stays promotion. It didn't yet have a link to T&Cs, nor could I register for that one. The old screenshots I have from the T&Cs said that I should have been good since I booked those nights before the end of January, but we'll see if Wyndham agrees.

I am also still waiting on my points to post. I had a stay on January 27th.
I also made sure I kept the T&C of the promo, just in case.

May I ask when you booked that stay? I called in re: this and was told I was out of luck because I booked it after the 18th - but there is talk in the other thread of folks who had made the bookings before the 18th still being told they'll get them. If you booked it later and get a friendlier resolution than I did, I'd love to know about it.

I booked the stay on Jan 25th and have two more coming up in 1 week.

I just completed the 2 stays and received the 15k for the "Stay Twice, Get a FREE Night" promo. I don't wanna complain about the bonus points, but I wanted to use that promo later and was hoping to use the initial promo.
I will wait until the month is over before I reach out to the platinum service desk.

Has anyone had the same issue with overlapping promos?

I found a surprise in my account today! I got the Visa Promo points for my stay I booked on Jan 25th and completed on Jan 28th.
My other two stays didn't post yet, but the 15k two nights bonus posted instead. I will wait a few more weeks to see what happens before I reach out to the team.

Did anyone else get their Visa Promo points for stays after Jan 18th?
