Is MB 30% Bonus offer is back ??

[gauravbhati]

Hello!

Today I was searching on how to transfer the points from MR to MB account and on the instruction page I saw this that they are offering the 30% bonus credit as they do every year.
Please check the attached image. I have to make a booking for the next week and was short on some points, but if this bonus is credited then I'll be able to complete the booking using the points only!

it's from Amex Canada not Amex India . Plz look carefully before creating a thread !

Just when u saw conversion rate is 1:1.2 , you could have easily understood that this isn't India !

As confirmed by @AlphaCAT it's the Amex Canada page.

Don't know how this page opened. Although I transferred points to MB A/c on 1:1 conversion rate from the rewards section.

The biggest issue with MB points is, they cover only stay and not breakfast. Taj vouchers on the other hand cover everything.

Only if Taj vouchers were redeemable at 1:1 MR points value, that would make AmEx so much cooler.

Till last year 60% properties were accepting breakfast on request with MB Gold or Platinum, but with MB Gold and Platinum tiers increased with Platinum Charge card and Marriott are not offering free breakfast.

I thought the breakfast or the other amenities charges can be paid using the MB points

Is any other hotel group other than MB will allows stays+ food + other facilities (all in one) using the points ??
