I only have experience transferring UR to Hyatt and United, but both took seconds.

Also, what is the 60 or 70K offer? Is that for signing up? How can I get that, SM?

Just SM saying you saw the offer and would like to get matched.

Has anyone gotten matched to the 70k offer recently? I signed up for the card recently, really need all 70k for an upcoming stay

I'm waiting until the miles post before I call, as I have gotten the bonus in the past and don't want to mess things up for myself.

Just wondering if the 70k offer is still being given out

What should be the best value for MR points? I want to stay at a ritz. And wanted to compare points rare vs. Cash. Thanx

Just an FYI, MR is usually referred to Membership Reward points from Amex and not Marriott Rewards.

You should check online to see what the pricing is for the different places you want to stay at.

Anyone have any experience with them fronting the points?
I've had little success trying that with Sapphire Preferred. Anyone have better stories with this one?

Amusch · « **Reply #31 on:** January 08, 2014, 03:07:42 PM »

Their first reply was they can't front me the points. Anyone know otherwise?

Anyone want to lend me Marriott points for a few weeks? I'll try to make it worth your while.

I stayed at the Ritz Herzliya almost a month ago using marriott points, and the points are still in my marriott account. Does anyone know how long it takes for the points to be pulled from my account?

That there was a mistake?

mendy704 · « **Reply #36 on:** April 17, 2014, 02:26:29 PM »

how do I find out if they will ever pull it, or I lucked out?

Use it for your next reservation, just make sure you have a backup plan in case they pull it last minute.

Check your credit card and make sure they didn't bill you, also !
