Early in the week when I wrote about all of the various bonuses you could quadruple or quintuple dip with on Marriott stays over the next few months, I highlighted an offer of a ton of Southwest Rapid Rewards points for buying Marriott gift cards.
In that post I noted that if you aren’t already a Southwest Rapid Rewards member, you could join with a 750 point bonus.
It seems there is now a 1000 point bonus — 500 for enrolling and 250 for each of two e-mail signups.
As it happens, and while I’m a member of perhaps 80 different loyalty programs, I’m not a member of Southwest Rapid Rewards. So I’m perhaps more interested in a signup bonus for a new account than the median reader might be.
Do these post instantly? I signed up using that link and only started out with 250 points.
Agree w/ redcat–only 250 points despite the T&Cs stating “500 points post instantly.”
Duh! And I just signed up two days ago with the smaller bonus so I could transfer 3000 ultimate rewards points for an award redemption.
Ditto. Grumble. This will be a pain, if I am required to get on the phone and haggle for what they promised.
So, what is a RR point worth? It’s pretty cut-and-dried, right?
“and while I’m a member of perhaps 80 different loyalty programs,”
Care to share the list?
