Is it just me or Marriott is actively trying to kill the SPG brand. Have been trying to reach SPG platinum customer service line - 3 attempts so far, each lasting 30 mins, no success yet.

They canā€™t help, thatā€™s the worst thing about the merger. I have a SPG free night which I want to redeem, Marriott folks canā€™t see it. Which I understand, there are IT issues, especially in a big merger. But not being able to reach customer service - thatā€™s frustrating.

@OP Iā€™m so relieved someone else has this problem. I also have an SPG Free night certificate I got prior to points integration that they lost. Iā€™ve talked to several different people on the Marriott side and provided my email confirmation but nobody knows what to do

Need advice. Have some credit card debt that Iā€™ve been working to pay off. Have made progress but want to lower it quickly. We have dual income, with a house (~$300k in equity), 1 kid and 1 on the way. Iā€™ve looked into debt consolidation via HELOC but also have ~$80k in vested equity in my company that I havenā€™t touched. Get equity refreshes every year. Would it be smarter to cash out $15k-$20k of that to pay debt vs. a HELOC at ~5% given that will still require mthly payments
