FYI If your name doesn’t match exactly you can’t combine.

And when I called SPG they said the account maintenance wasn’t ready so to call back

Found a bed bug in a Radisson Red in Campinas Brazil, how many points?

considering a trip to Hawaii, looking for Marriott properties that have a beach access, probably October through December. Would prefer more on the value side than all glitz and glam. Any recommendations

Hi fellow fish need some advice.

I'm planning a wedding and wondering if I should apply for new credit cards to maximize on points. If so, wondering what your recommendations are and or if there are new cards out there I haven't heard of yet. For context I probably have another 20k+ in expenses to pay still and my current cards are:

CSP
Marriott Bonvoy Boundless
Citi double cash
Random card (used to be uber)

Iceland in Mid April
1) recommended with a 2.5 year old?
2) hotels to stay in - any good Marriott properties?
3) must do

What credit card to you recommend pairing well with chase sapphire preferred for maximizing redemption? Pretty new to points and def don’t know a lot! I’m considering one of the Marriott cards bc we love Marriott or an Amex one! Any ideas appreciated 🤗 TIA!!

I have 315k Marriott Bonvoy points and a couple of free nights in addition. What is the best bang for my buck in terms of locations / experiences I could get? I am super flexible on timing and location, just want the best experience. Any thoughts?

What are some good trips to do with Bonvoy points in the Northeast (thinking more spa/relaxing vs touring cities) e.g Berkshires, Vermont etc

What is the tipping etiquette on the free platinum breakfast in a JW Marriott? The server just gets coffee / orange juice and you serve yourself. It is an overpriced buffet that I would never dine in.

Has anyone used the annual elite gift to buy a mattress through Marriott? If I buy it on my Boundless card will I get 6x points?

Any Hilton recs in Charleston?

The new SPG app is not intuitive at all, very hard to navigate i find.

Can someone explain the Marriott status process to me? I am one year away from hitting life time status but doesn’t look like I am going to hit the 75 nights this year to keep titanium. (Cont. below)

I know this has been asked 1000 times but I searched and couldn’t find- EY SPG corporate code? Back to work tomorrow requires I schedule a vacation to cure the depression.

Any place to go few hours drive from Austin? Have a 3.5 yo so want to keep it enjoyable/relaxing for us at the same time keep the kiddo engaged and happy. We just need a good change of scene.

I was recently in Spain and my Spanish is native as well as my English, but I had the opportunity to attend the musical of the Lion King. I had already seen it in English and wanted to try it in Spanish, and although it is the same music the language change felt like total madness. Is this normal?

Is there a paper or hardware wallet for smaller coin like factom/golem/stratis??!!

What are some racial/gender/age based micro aggressions you’ve experienced in the workplace?

Tampa lawyers who work downtown: where do you live? Looking to purchase a house soon and am trying to decide between a low commute time (crappier house and a tight move financially) and a longer commute time (nicer house and more comfortable financially). The longer commute time also comes with better public schools, and I want to have kids.

Which is better for getting to midlaw or biglaw eventually: CSK, Wicker Smith, or Hinshaw?

WW II
Vietnam
9/11
Great Recession

Just got promoted to ACD. Will be taking on more leadership roles. Any books, workshops, resources that helped you learn leadership skills?

Anyone hiring remote EPs?

Hey guys I’ve 3 years of US Government consulting experience in Data Analytics and reporting for decision making and I have to move Canada because of personal reasons.

What is the comparision between Infosys band 6B and Band 8 of IBM? Any pointers please!

Going to join D M&A IT. What can I expect? What should I prep for? How do you all update your technical knowledge?

What types of non-profit organizations do you think could use SCM skills? All I can really think of is food banks.

The new SPG app is not intuitive at all, very hard to navigate i find.

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.

It is WILD that we had a whole separate bowl for this.

my nights finally all came in! Activity history is now messed up again though 🤔

Who’s still missing nights? 🙋🏻‍♂️

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

Is anyone able to give me the Marriott Family or/and friends discount paper? 🤗

How is your Ambassador service? I reached it with the merge but really bad so far. Not reactive, I have to wait days and send multiple emails to get an answer, doesn’t do what she says she would do...

First post? Ok I will start. My SPG nights for 2018 dropped from 101 to 91 after the merger.

If anyone sees their missing nights appear, please post here so the rest of us know to start checking for them to appear. TIA.

Merged my account this morning. Quite a sentimental moment to delete my SPG app. Bye bye you purple little guy

How do I request suite upgrades on the new app? I have 10 that will expire this year and can’t seem to find a way to apply them on a reservation. Thanks for the help!

So spent the last 30 hours working through this trying to books with points. Still nada. Anybody else have luck?

Will status for current year still be valid till February of next year in the new combined program?

Do y'all think they've just given up at this point. Chalk it up to a loss?

Anyone else not getting points / nights for recent Marriott stays? Account activity isn’t working in the app

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.

I am currently showing 800 days and 9 years elite. Anyone know if this year is included in that if I have 50 nights? Right on the border for lifetime platinum premier elite and I want it!!!

Do Starwood reservations eventually come over onto Marriott after you combine? Mine still haven’t...
