    Instant Marriott Silver Elite Status (for new & existing Marriott members)

Earlier this week, word started spreading in the frequent flyer community that there were links available to get automatic Silver Elite status for Marriott by going through the corporate contracts.

And at typically 10 to 75 points per survey you take, I don’t blame them for thinking that way. But here’s the secret…… (click read more!)
