Conclusion
Not sure if anyone told IHG that they have changed the name IHG Rewards Club to just IHG Rewards on February 4, 2021 (read more here)?
Lately, there have been some issues with the UK issuer of these cards, Creation, canceling them if they were used through one of the fintech companies. IHG frequently has similar offers for its Chase-affiliated cardholders in the US. I am glad that they have now remembered that these are also issued in the UK,

I wonder how many Creation accounts are still going to be open to take advantage of this offer given how many they’re closing next month? Also lots where they have not transferred points.
Absolute crooks Creation who issue the IHG card in the UK. The brand is going to take a knock as those who hold the card and are having it shut are generally big travel spenders. They’ve taken card annual fees but are refusing to provide points earned on spend or the annual bonus vouchers. It’ll get very messy and expensive for them through the English courts. Creation as a BNP subsidiary seems to be uneducated on how strong consumer law is in England.
