IHG were running a promotion called ‘Priceless Surprises‘ (actually ends on March 15th), the idea was that if you completed a stay with IHG using a MasterCard you received an entry where you could win a prize. Because the promotion operates like a sweepstakes, IHG had to allow people to enter without paying anything and you could enter via sending in index card handwritten with your details inside of an envelope.

A lot of people entered, but I’ve heard from a number of people that have stated that they didn’t get all the e-mails they sent in entries for (maximum of 94 entries per person). If your in this situation, I’d strongly recommend sending an e-mail to [email protected] complaining about this fact. Multiple readers (and Free Frequent Flyer Miles & data points on Flyertalk) have gotten their missing entries to post after e-mailing and a bit of back and forth. I think if you went to the effort to hand write these postcards, you should probably go to the effort of following up via e-mail to get what is owed to you.
Let me know your experiences with the promotion and also doing a follow up via e-mail in the comments.
