Can you still earn status under the old world requirements if you have not combined? Trying to see if I can score an extra year of plat before I combine but idk if stays will count now, merged or not.

1 night equals a stay on SPG and you only need 50 nights to reach platinum under old rules til end of year before combining accounts

Answered my own question; you can. Next question: does anyone here know what the stay requirement for plat spg is? And if one night counts for a stay or is it two night min. Been a while since I was with spg.

It’s 75 nights just like for Marriott it’s under the same requirements now

Having to call Marriott to apply a suite night award to an SPG hotel on a reservation you made before the merger and combining accounts proves to you how much is still SO WRONG with this merger.

For those who became platinum premier elite + ambassador with the merge, have you received your ambassador already? How long does it take?

Almost 4 weeks in and my status is still wrong. It was correct for the first ~1 day and then bumped down a level. Shouldn’t be hard as all my nights last year were SPG. This is ridiculous.

Why platinum and no longer platinum elite?

I am about 100 nights away from reaching the lifetime grandfathered premier access, not sure if I can make it by year end. No longer on travel projects. Any tips? Any new updates from Marriott?
