II Gold/Platinum Upgrade 50% Off!!!

[mdurette]

It worked for me, I just got 2 years for $129, 50% off the $258 price that was listed.

Heres how I did it
- log in to my account
- go to the daily deal link on the main page
- click the link on the deal page
- enter the code in ALL CAPS and click Apply
- the 50% showed up in the grid with a new radio button, clicked the radio button in the 2yr box for platinum and the discount was applied.
- Check out to the payment page.

Are you saying it worked and you are one that had you previous platinum expire recently?

Magazine Offer

I will have to check tomorrow, but I think those that upgraded should qualify for the free magazine offer.

Crap, I remember seeing that. Though I went out and back in so many times that I don't know if I unchecked it when I finally renewed. Is there any way to tell if I am signed up for auto renewal? I don't see anything mentioned on the purchase confirmation that I printed.

Your bill would have gone up to the 5 year renewal so it was very obvious to me when I got to the final page...

Whew, okay. My final amount for the two year upgrade was $129. So I guess I am okay?

Go in to your account page, check to make sure your credit card info is not saved, you can remove it if it is.

I have no credit card information saved.

I learned something. If one has a Shell Vacations Club II account, which automatically comes with II Gold, it cannot be upgraded to platinum at any price. Oh well, I am stuck with Gold, since I am not going to pay to upgrade my other regular II account.

Bummer, wonder why they wouldn't let you upgrade for the difference in price between Gold and Platinum.

I believe some (like DRI points and Hyatt that included gold) in the past let you upgrade to platinum but you had to pay the full upgrade cost. The reason being IMO that the developers likely didn't pay the full amount toward gold, it was just a bulk benefit they negotiated in their contract. II never let you upgrade for the price difference if you had gold, you were refunded what you paid (which in the case of corporate accounts was nothing directly to II) and then paid the full amount toward platinum.

Just checked today and the link for the magazine offer is active. Ordered Bon Appetite to add to my already existing subscription that currently runs through 2020, all free!

Where do you find the magazine offer?

It is on the getaway page. There is a list of four offers in the lower right. I think they rotate. The Magazine Offer is always the last on the list when it appears. You might need to refresh a bunch of times to get it to show up. You will see a big orange button that says "Select Your Magazine Here".

I got an email reminder today for the magazine offer with a link, included with the platinum upgrade I completed a few days ago.
