This merger blows. SPG had a legit no blackout policy but Marriott says they do no blackout but they have inventory control which is essentially the same shit. Such deceptive tactic. 😡😡

Staying at the Ritz and STR in the Maldives so expecting good service and reading mixed things about tipping. I usually don’t tip much at hotels (never really thought about it) but what do people do? Is there an expectation and would the amount be based on like room rate or just a flat daily per day?

If I have two 401ks (current job and previous job), does the 19k limit apply to both of them together or 19k each?

If I were to rollover a pension lump sum into one of those 401ks, is counted towards the $19k limit? Or is rollover classified differently and I could still continue to contribute to my current 401k?

So my home office is in city A and I got assigned to a job in city B. Would EY reimburse the flight if I’m flying from city C to city B?

Anyone here ever been scared by some major differences in materialism with your partner? I’ve been considered “boujee” by some friends but my girlfriend of just over a year is on a whole other level. Lately because of many of her friends getting engaged / married, rings have been mentioned and she’s said pretty much she wouldnt be happy with under 25k.

I come from a very middle class upbringing, and so does she, although she’s influenced by friends dating professional athletes and stuff

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!

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

Who’s still missing nights? 🙋🏻‍♂️

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

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!!!

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

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

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

I was platinum lifetime marriott... on the spg app, i now show gold lifetime. That should show Platinum lifetime right?

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?

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

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 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?

Anyone still missing nights/stays?

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

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.

Who is still having issues? Mine currently
1) Wrong lifetime night count (wrong on one and zero on other)
2) Missing reservations
3) Missing past stays
4) Discrepancy between website and mobile app

Arrived at a SPG property last week and had email confirmation and booking in the app but hotel didn’t have it - manager blamed merger IT issues, anybody else experienced this recently?
