The invitation says at least 5000 points. It's actually 10,000.

"user name" that is required. Which program user name?

The user name they gave me was a number. It did not match any numbers in my account number. Don't know where they got them.

The survey is by invitation only. So unless you receive an invitation or can "borrow" an unused username, you are out of luck.

So the point of posting this was...?

For those of us not invited, the interesting part of this thread is value. Seems like the value of HH points per this choice is 1/2 cent to 1 cent per point based on the 5000 or 10000 in different comments.

The point of posting this is that most people get too much SPAM e-mail. Most will simply disregard or delete e-mails that they do not know who sent it to them.

A large number of readers in this forum probably received this survey offer as it appears to be going out to Hilton elites.

The main point is that it's worth opening the e-mail up and responding if you received it as I have now given members a "head's up" on what to look for.

Members, please let me know if you want me to refrain from posting these "head's up" messages in the future.

Thanks for the post! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

Sadly, I did not get this email from Hilton, however! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/frown.gif

Maybe tomorrow! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/wink.gif

I sent an e-mail to TSupport@CMBINFO.com
and w/in an hour they replied with a numeric username for me to use.

It worked! I'm now (or will be in 6-8 weeks) 5,000 points closer to that Hilton vacation that I so desperately need!

What did you say in your email? That you wanted to participate and request a username, or that you were already picked to participate, but had lost the username?

FT'ers are so creative. This is something I might think of! WTG Russ!

I tried to do the same thing and I e-mailed them concerning my interest in partaking in the survey ... no dice. They essentially said that it was targeted and that I was not a target.

I did the same thing. They said that they would check to see if I was one of the targeted frequent stayers, but I haven't heard back from them.

I too tried to participate and got the following reply:

'Thank you for your interest, but we have used a randomly selected group from
our client's sample list. Thank you though for your time.

Regards.'

Sorry for my sharp response. You did the right thing, and I was just frustrated at not being able to access the survey. Keep 'em coming, and thanks.

I too tried to participate,sent e-mail yesterday requesting "LOST NUMERIC USER NAME*and I didn't even get a reply...

I took the survey (got the invitation). I have booked several times on Hampton's web site and used the Magellan's certificates.

I took the $25 because these days, 5,000 Hilton points isn't a lot compared to other recent bonuses. There was no indication that it was 10,000... I might have taken that.

I hope they don't change the program so that Hamptoneers get fewer perks.

Hey, chix, thanks for posting this. I would have dumped it unread if you had not.

For some reason I got 10,000 points. Yahoo! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

I opted for the $25 as I have plenty of HHonors points. Well, my check arrived last night. Easiest $25 I've made.

I just received my $25 check as well. I currently have about 500,000 points so it seemed like a better option. I must admit I was a little suspicious at first but it all turned out to be legit.

All you "lucky" folks! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

For those of you waiting for the 10k points for completing the survey, I've received an e-mail telling me that they will post on June 8.

I got the email for this last month and I am still waiting for the points to post. Any word on how long this will take?

------------------
AmWest/Silver, Cont./Silver, Hilton/Gold, Starwood/Gold, Marriott/Silver

I received one of the e-mails too....they check has already been deposited and spent.

10k points posted today as promised.

I went to the site: http://www.choicemr.com/hotelstudy/]http://www.choicemr.com/hotelstudy/
as you said and this was the message I got:
We're sorry, but the deadline for this research study has already passed.
Thank you very much for your interest.

Bummer! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/frown.gif

My 10,000 points posted yesterday. Great offer, I hope they repeat it periodically.

Good News: Points Posted http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

Bad News: Only 5,000 http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/frown.gif

Same here, only 5,000 pts. But, I can't complain, they were 100% free. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif
