Forgive me. I'm confused. It seems like there are a few conflicting reports above as to which cards will qualify for the 6x points acruel for MF's not "Resort charges"?
I am trying to figure out which card to use to pre-pay next year's MF's that would gain the most Bonvoy point bonus. I don't believe I was successful in 2018 but for me to figure it out, I need the "plating" or "coding" of the Vistana payment charge as it is listed so I can search for it on my statements.
I own at WKORV- N (which before Vistana would specifically show the charge as "Westin") and have a both a Bonvoy Chase Visa and the converted SPG AmEx? Do I have to appeal to receive the bonus or did these procedures that worked or did not work in the past mainly because of the whole system was in transition.
Ahhh.......I finally found it. It's listed as "OCEAN RESORT MASTER ASSC" and coded as "Travel" but not specifically counted as Marriott Bonvoy or Westin which might have made it ineligible for the 6x Bonus.
The reason I was having difficulty determining whether I received the bonus was because the charge was part of the $3000 required spend for the original 75K signing bonus. It is listed as "Premierplus - Nonmarriott Spen" . It appears as if I only received the 2x "everything else" bonus.
BTW, I noticed that they do not offer this "Premier Plus" card (as listed on my card) but most likely is considered the
"Boundless" card based on the benefits it offers and the fees I am charged. Would the outcome be the same with the converted SPG/Bonvoy Amex?
I don't know if the issue would be different if I had the "Brilliant" higher end card but I do not have that.
