Why no response from Chase/IHG on Cert Fiasco?

Why no response from Chase/IHG on Cert Fiasco?

  1. Anonymous Guest

    Why did Chase/IHG decide that some people were not entitled to a first unlimited annual free night certificate, while those who applied before AND AFTER the unlucky group were apparently granted a first unlimited annual free night certificate? Why did Chase/IHG never explain their rationale for a seemingly nonsensical distinction between those who are entitled to at least one unlimited cert and those who will never get an unlimited cert. Why doesn’t OMAAT care about this?

    [QUOTE=”David W, post: 56366, member: 29″]Have you tried contacting Chase yourself?[/QUOTE]

    Good question, and yes, I did contact Chase. The Chase Rep was great. Knew the issue, listened to me explain my frustration. Her points: (1) IHG limited the Certificates, not Chase, (2) IHG determined that 1/18 – 4/18 was the appropriate grandfather window, (3) IHG gave Chase no rationale for why they chose that period. I have not called IHG. I don’t sense they are going to care about my concerns. I think it’s bummer that OMAAT continues to post IHG news release info, but will not close this out by insisting the responsible party (apparently IHG) provide a rationale for grandfathering only a subgroup of first year IHG card holders. I suppose I hope that if IHG has to put out a press release explaining themselves, someone over there will come to their senses and correct this so that all card members get at least one (first) unrestricted anniversary certificate.
