Getting upset when you end the year with 51 stays at SPG because of being so close to averaging 1stay/week

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

Best SPG property to stay in London?

Got Marriott Gold via SPG Gold match. If I stay 25 more nights in Marriott properties will I earn platinum?

Lyft driver delayed picking me up 30 min, resulting in me canceling my ride and asking hotel to call me a “yellow taxi” to get to the airport because it was 5am and all ubers/lyfts were 15 min. Specifically said yellow. Hotel calls me a private lux SUV and the driver got out of the car to handshake the man who called and said hi (honestly money couldve been passed). I then get hit with a $180 ride. Marriott website says taxi should be $65. Should I complain or let it go?

Planning to travel during Thanksgiving (super late in planning as usual) any fun recos- travelling from Chicago have boatloads of AA and Bonvoy points to burn. 7-8 nights

I got bumped back to platinum elite on both Marriott and SPG.. after being gold for a few months now (have been on a local project for a year now)
Strange.

Looks like I lost 12 nights and points / nights are not combined with Marriott yet

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

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!!

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

FYI - Just went on the Marriott website and selected the option to combine both spg and Marriott accounts. All stays and details updated. Past history to be updated in 48 hours. Get it done folks!!

Anyone have a special platinum Marriott support number or contact person to resolve a lingering issue?

Is there a thread of company discount codes? ISO Hilton code (do not judge me my BIL is getting married at a Hilton and his fiancé is going to go postal if we don’t reserve a room now)

6 months pregnant and just laid off. And 40% of my severance was just taken in taxes .. I just spoke with paid family leave and I no longer qualify even though I had been paying into the program (thanks NY)..
