Is this the right Priority Club?

American Express Australia - Membership Rewards

OK, now I am worried. I was looking through the rewards catalogue and found this for Priority Club. What the devil is a Bass Hotel?

Bass Hotels is an historical name for part of the IHG group. The page you reference must be quite old!

OK, so if I transfer points, I will be staying in IC hotels? It's the real Priority Club? I don't want to stay in some fishing hut! Bass=fish!

That is the current page on Amex website! Guess they need to update!

I've recently taken advantage of the 50% Bonus for points transferred from Amex to PC (ie get 900pts for 600pts) and was disappointed to find that there is quite a delay in the points appearing in your PC acount. This special is available until 31 May 2008.

First transfer was made on 12 April - the base points are in, but not the bonus points.
Second transfer made on 7 May - no points appear in PC yet.

After calling to enquire, was told by PC Customer Service that the bonus points will only appear in an account after "2-3 weeks."

This is pretty poor form when you compare it to the "within 24hours" evident for transfers to QFF and Velocity.

Has anyone else had a similar experience...
