Anyone got x2 base points from Bonvoy?

I made a “milestone stay” at Ritz in LA when I hit Titanium last month. While I was welcomed by some macarons and a personal letter, I wasn’t informed that the stay would double my base points (I spent $2k in room charge, which got me 40k base points instead of only 20k).

Is that a discretionary move by the property manager, by the Bonvoy team, a stated policy or just a technical glitch?

(of my last 6 years of travelling I never got x2 points)

Wait you spent 2k for a room and some macarons? Your strategy was to get 20k points?

If they were credited as base points, most likely a technical glitch. Enjoy the windfall!

The property manually giving you double points would show up as a separate line item and a promotion would fall as "extra points" on your account activity. Also, I haven't heard of Marriott giving any gifts of this nature to people qualifying for status.

It’s a promo right now. I’ve gotten double points for every stay in June and will continue until end of July.

You hit titanium?? Marriott has silver, gold, platinum and ambassador.. what’s titanium?

It’s silver, gold, platinum, titanium, titanium with ambassador. Titanium is 75 nights, ambassador is 100 nights + $20k in spend.
