  Not at all bothered about IHG status extension as easily earn Spire via CC spend. The extra 25k points is nice though.

  Will be interesting to see if AMB vouchers and status get extended any further, if we’re all stuck unable to travel until next year then there’s not going to be much time to use them!

    I’m wondering if IHG have made a mistake with quoting the extra 25k now. If they extend your Spire status till 2021 then you will receive another 25k next year. I’m still hoping on an additional bonus this year but not holding my breath…

  So as the IHG Travel Advisory page says

  “We have provided a complimentary three-month membership extension to members of our InterContinental Ambassador program (on 15 March 2020)”

  (ie “we _have_” not “we will”…) does this mean it should this be showing on my membership already? My expiry date in the app was – and still is – 01/02/21, so it hasn’t been extended by 3 months. (And my free ambassador weekend certificate hasn’t been extended either… AND my free night from the premium IHG credit card hasn’t showed up either (and Creation haven’t replied to my query about it), even though it’s now over a month since my anniversary date…)

    They’ve been updating accounts over the last few days. My Ambassador membership was extended by 3 months today. It did not show yesterday.

  My old expiry said 31/12 2021. Which I got spire via the credit card mainly in November 19. Do us that going to change 31/12 2022?

    An RA friend got an email yesterday about his RA.

    No doubt you’ll get an email as well in due course.

  I had already hit the 55k points and my account says I am Spire Elite, but no sign of the 25k bonus.

  If I click Elite benefits all I see is a Hertz upgrade.

    I had that also, i conetcted CS and they managed to get the new bonuses applied to my account. I thought reading other comments this had now been resolved but looks not for everyone.

  I have 44 nights already this year and requalified for Spire half way through last year, my first year of Spire.
  Would have probably qualified again by now if it hasn’t been for this virus.

  I only got the offer of the 25k points when I first got Spire. Not seen it since.
  Still got the original Hertz whatever offer that is of no interest to me.

    I seem to remember someone on FT contacting QR and having been told no.
