Thank you for contacting us,

I have reviewed your account to see if you were eligible for this promotion and I was not able to verify that your account was in fact eligible for this promotion. I will honor the promotion, as a onetime exception, but do want to advise you that we must wait the 6-8 timeframe from when you met the $4500 spend. If you do not receive the 20,000 bonus points by 12/12/11 please contact me via Secure Message and I will be more than happy to issue the bonus points for you.

I look forward to assisting you.

Sincerely,

Rachel Toledo

Of course as long as you follow her instructions.

Lucky you!

here is what I got:

It does appear as if you contacted us previously on the same issue and I responded to you.

As previously advised, we would not be able to honor the promotion as this is for new cardholders, you had a Starwood Preferred Guest Credit Card back in May 2008. If this was your first Starwood Card I would have honored the promotion (as a one time courtesy), but because you had one previously we would not be able to honor the promotion.

I hope you understand our position in this matter.

As everyone says YMMV but I was told by more than one rep that since I had the card for more than 2 years I was eligible to get the signup bonus again. It seems to me that their only problem here is that they are still under the impression that this was a targeted offer.

Hello
Thank you for your email.

The 10,000 Starpoints for your first purchase are issued within 12 weeks of making the purchase. You should be able to view these points within the next week. Also, I have now issued the 20,000 Starpoints for meeting the spend threshold of $4,500.00 within the first three months of Cardmembership. You should be able to view these 20,000 points in your Starwood account within the next 3-5 business days.

It was my pleasure to assist you.

Sincerely,

I sent just yesterday a message to Courtney, and this is what i got back today.

( I actually applied for the card b4 there was the 30K offer, but it took them a long time to issue the card, so i tried my luck, and it worked b"h)

Good afternoon,

I will actually be responding on behalf of Courtney who is currently out of the office, but i am aware of the promotion that you are referring to.

Since you did just recently meet the spend and applied for the card (this is being honored as a one time exception), during that timeframe, I have now issued the other 20,000 bonus points. This adjustment will appear on an upcoming statement.

It was my pleasure to assist you. Do not hesitate to contact us directly if you have any further questions or concerns.

Sincerely,

Rachel Toledo

Is there any way to get the SPG 30k offer now?

Is there any way to get the SPG 30k offer now?

I don't think so, but the last 2 years, the offer was released in the summer, so if you wait, maybe it'll come back.
