Anyone who's done the SPG platinum challenge - how long does it take after your last stay to update in the system?

^ SPG said it would be a couple of "weeks" and it goes through review. I am shocked and annoyed by that answer. It's a challenge, that is complete why would it take this long and require a review. Guess I'm just trying to have it asap for an upcoming trip.

I got my last 3 nights and had been bumped to platinum by my stay the following week

like

8 days. I just called and asked and that is what they told me

like

Completed my 18th night and send them an email (platinum.liaison@starwoodhotels.com) after midnight once the system shows 18 nights attained.
Mine was updated within 15 minutes after sending the platinum liaison an email with the screenshot of my profile with the number of nights.

Pretty quick, like a week or so. Did it late last year

It's really quick. Believe it was less than a week.

Yup takes 3 days on average for me

By the time I checked in the following Monday morning.

Thanks all ! Yeah I was hoping sooner. SPG said longer but could be less lol was totally trying to determine the reality of that. Looks like it may hit mid-stay for me if at all. I'll be in Europe so the status is crucial or you end up paying extra for everything

Even if they don't have you in the system you can tell them at check in you completed the challenge and they'll give you all the perks of being platinum...at least they did for me

Thanks D2 - definitely planning on trying at check-in

Mine was instant

a few days

Sooooo I've only been staffed on local projects and am travelling for the first time EVER - what's the platinum challenge?

Thanks @d2! Another rookie q - do I sign up on the website or just call after I've done the 18th? Just got staffed on a project in NY. W here I come!

Email the platinum liaison email that's up above requesting a status challenge

Thanks @a1!!!

You can find the link to the challenge on the Deloitte travel site (before you hit book travel)on the bottom there are links to hotel and air promotions and you can sign up there or call SPG and tell them you work for Deloitte and you'd like to do the challenge but do this before you complete your stays
