Hilton HHonors - THANKS ALL RE: 50K BONUS

Just wanted to say Thanks again everyone re: info. on the 50K bonus.

I just completed my 3rd stay today and intend to do a real quick cheap ($69) stay this weekend for the 4th stay.

The points are piling up faster than I know what to do with them..

I'll stay at an Embassy on Sunday and a Hilton on Monday for my 3rd and 4th stay and hopefully be on my way to 50K

My thanks to everyone, too.

Thanks, also, from us... three stays so far under this program and anticipating the 4th...would never have done it without all of you.

Another bonus that hasn't been mentioned to often is the threshold bonus of 4000 points for 4 stays within a calender quarter. Mine just posted along with the 50K from the conquest. Now I am on my way to earning Gold.

Yes it has.

A question on the 4000 point bonus for staying four times in a quarter -- does a stay that crosses over the start of a quarter count in the current quarter? I have three stays this quarter, and will add a fourth, if a Dec 31-Jan 4 stay at the start of the year counts for this quarter.

>>>>>>Just found my answer on another post -- date of checkout is used to determine in which quarter a stay is credited. Thanks FlyerTalk for being a great place to find answers!

Does one have to 'register' for this Threshold bonus and if so is there a code number? Thanks

No need to register or have a code. FFlyCAtcher, don't know the answer, I suggest you call HHonors for an answer.

That's right. Technically, you do nothing and it usually posts automatically. For some reason, my last quarter bonus didn't post and when I noticed it I called and it was added while I was on the phone.

Even though I'm a Diamond - I earned a 50K point bonus last month too!

Thanks to all for the great promo information. Now, if HH will post some of my stays, it would be helpful.
I've tried faxing them, but still no luck...

Irvine -- Why don't you just call the HHonors CS @ (800)548-8690 ? In many cases, they fix problems right over the phone.

Another option is to open your account information online, click on "Member Services", and submit your request for missing points online.

DOC 2 Be-thanks for the reply! =)

Always glad to be of assistance!

Eugene:
Thanks for the info: I'll try call them again.

Earlier I raised a question on the 4000 point bonus for staying four times in a quarter -- asking if a stay that crosses over the start of a quarter counts in the current quarter.

In looking through some older posts, I later found an answer on another post -- that the date of checkout is used to determine in which quarter a stay is credited.

This apparently is still how it is being done because I just received the bonus for my fourth stay this quarter where the first stay started in 4th quarter last year and ended a few days after New Years Day.

I have enrolled in the Fast Track to GoldVIP
and I'm trying to get the 50K bonus by completing 4 stays. Does anyone know if 4
separate stays at the same hotel property
count? Also is the price I obtain thru
Priceline.com an eligible rate for the 50K
bonus? Thanks in advance.

Four stays at the same property will count, but they can not be on consecutive nights. Generally speaking, you won't get Hhonors credit for Priceline stays (although there are a few reports here of people getting the credit).
