+2000 pts/night rate – points not qualifying for status?

Which hotel and did you book the flex rate on the IHG website? Some hotels offer bonus point packages themselves, rather than the centrally controlled add-ons to the IHG flex rate. It coukd be that the former do not qualify. Worth querying anyway and telling us here as this will alter many of our stategies

Thanks. Staybridge Newcastle. I’d booked the add-on to the flex rate (and noticed that this is advertised as elite qualifying in the app during the booking process). Will contact IHG if the points don’t become qualifying, and post my result here.

They should be qualifying so
