I’m considering suing IHG rewards in small claims court. Should I submit the claim in UK as IHG is UK registered? Or it is possible to submit the claim in any other territory incl USA?

Pretty sure their fine print would at minimum relegate your grievance to arbitration. Though I'm sure they're completely indemnified through the T&Cs. Though admittedly I've never read them.

Smalls claimed through another country would likely cost you in excess of whatever you recover purely from a time commitment.

Make sure you read the service agreement before you waste your time.

I feel like if you need to ask a basic question like this, you are not well positioned to pursue a suit in an effective manner. Get legal counsel and think through your next steps carefully.

What are you suing for?

like

You probably need to file your claim wherever the damage occurred. If the damage is related to points or online reservations, you probably need to file suit in Atlanta, Georgia, where IHG is headquartered.

As others mentioned, if it's related points or reservations, there is a good chance the T&C require arbitration.

following! I have also been fed up with their rewards shit. I Signed up for their CC but my rewards are not accruing like they said they would. SMH please let me know what yours is about 🥲

Before small claims court consider:

1) Reaching out to IHG Rewards Program Support by Phone

2) Disputing the charge through your credit card company

3) T&Cs require going through their chosen arbitrator

Only after the above 3 have been exhausted can you even contemplate court.

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)
