IHG Accelerate 2016 (1 Jan -30 April)

[Dannyism]

Just wanted to let y'all know I didn't have any luck with the above strategy. Although the lady on the phone tried a few different ways to help me, she ultimately said she couldn't help because the system was automated.

I may or may not consider staying with IHG.

Only just checked after my stay about a month ago. Nice start but don't know how many more I'll get:

Do they run IHG accelerate again? As in 3x a year ?

We wait in hope but if anything like the current one I won't bother.

I'vr had literally about 8 reminder emails in the last week.

They really​ want me to earn points!

I'm only one night stay booked via IHG App away from about 30k bonus points (4800 for 2x App bookings - 1 complete) and 24,800 Achievement Bonus. Plus any points for the stay.

Probably won't have a work trip before the end of April but I can get a room at the HI Potts Point for A$149 (very close to work).

The perennial question - would a mattress run be worth it?

I think that works out cheaper than purchasing points using "both" methods (official method has a 60% bonus at the moment and something like US$287!).

The equivalent cost of a 30k points night stay in the US would be a lot more than A$149?

I'm a bit late to this thread. This is what I had

Stay once get 5,000
Stay 5 nights get 10,000
Bonus weekend stay get 6,000
Member exclusive rate get 6,000
Achievement bonus 23,000

I completed the first 3 with 5 nights on a recent trip to MNL and BKK. Was a nice little 44K points and now suddenly find myself with over 100K points that I need to work out the best thing to use them for
