Has anyone had any bad experiences using an SPG Amex card for hotel stays while on client travel? I know we are supposed to use our Corporate Card, but is there really any way that I might get in trouble? Has anyone ever heard of anyone getting audited? Even if I do get audited, won't they just say, "Don't do it again"?

The goal is to get to the point where they start just giving you 1000 extra points when you check in to prevent you from complaining. I haven't made it to that point yet, but it's still a goal of mine.

Now if I could just figure out how to complain in such a way as to get Marriott to award me with SPG points.

You get 1K for each stay and the Sheraton Waterfront downtown is also triple starpoints and gets you the extra 1K so you can get an extra 3K a Week.



Normal points for three night stay = 1000 swp

Triple Starwood Points = 2000 swp

Triple Midweek Points = 2000 swp

1k Remodeling Bonus Points x 3 stays = 3000 swp

Kiosk Check in x 3 stays = 1500 swp

50% Platinum Bonus = 500 swp­___

= 10000 swp per week

If you use your Starwood Amex to purchase

Point per dollar = 1000 swp

Extra point for each dollar at Starwood = 1000 swp___

Total = 12000 swp per week



That’s enough for 1 night in Hawaii per week!!!!
