Credit Card Programs - [Targeted] Hilton HHonors Amex - 60,000 after $750 in 3 mo.

I think its targeted offer. Got it in the mail with RSVP number. Had my old forgotten HHonors number that I haven't used in a while.

Is this the Surpass with the $75 annual fee?

No fee.

there is a current offer of 50,000 with no fee...and its for everyone....you also get silver status ............is this the same one you got?

Is it 60,000 off the bat or do you get 50K and then another 10K after a year?

There was a 60K no fee version for everyone - that died in March.

So it may seem sooner or later, the 60K for everyone might return.

I am waiting for that 60k bonus to come back.

60K after spending $750 off the bat + silver status

This is where I applied

Wished I had a targeted offer for 60k. Just received the same card for 50k and 2 Citi Hilton Honors Visa for 50k points each so i guess I can't complain.

At least you got 50k each. I only found the 40k amex and 40k Citi cards.

There are currently links for everyone for 50K Amex no fee and 50k Citi no fee.

Can someone post the 50K Amex no fee link?

Yes, but when I applied in April all 3 cards were only at 40k points

Can this be posted in the masters thread?

Do you mean the STICKY of this forum?

Already in the STICKY of card offers, see post 303.

Can this be posted in the masters thread?

It should be already there. I PMed it to UA Fan some time ago.

Data point using the link-

Used the link above to apply for the 50k HH points. When I received the credit card from AMEX i called to confirm the 50k points. AMEX said the offer was for 40k points. Amex wanted to know where I applied and I told CSR that I did a search on Amex Hilton Honors credit card. Not good enough. I had to send the link by email to prove that it was for 50k points.

What did they reply?

AMEX often has such issues especially when the link is a zombie link which I suspect it is.
One time I was told by a rep that they had so many offers out there, they would not know what you get. The rep said if the bonus not posted as expected, send them the proof of the offer... That was years ago when the card arrived with materials that showed a different bonus. I did have to send in proof for the offer I applied, then the bonus posted accordingly.

No reply from my email with the link. CSR was on the phone when I asked if he received my email. He checked and said the link was legitimate. He confirmed on the phone that I will receive my 50k points upon $750 spend.

OP, after you typed in the RSVP code, did the application page come up with your information pre-filled? If not, can you type in your RSVP code again, and then copy the URL of the next page and paste it here ?

I did not realize you can send email to AMEX while talking to them on the phone. Was it thru the AMEX online account message center? or a separate email address?

Let us know if you got the 50K automatically. I have the card and will meet the spend this cycle but my activation was automated and I did not bother to press 0 to talk to CSR. I have made screen shot of the offer page, as well as the half-filled application page though, in case I have to fight for it. Hope I dont need to. Will report back to here and the main thread.

Happy-

Seperate email to the CSR.

So the CSR has a separate email address. News to me. Would keep in mind of this apparently useful feature of AMEX.

Its giving me error now. I guess once you use rsvp code with your application its no longer valid

Wow that was quick. I filled the 50k application out for my wife and within one minute received approval. Cool.
However, she doesn't have an HH account so I'm wondering if they will open one up for her using the cc application or should I open one up for her?? I know...I should have opened one up for her beforehand but it's too late now.

Have you heard "Instant Approval" before? That is how it works if your application got an instant approval. ;)

It is too late now about the HHonor account - just wait for AMEX to open one for your wife's application. You would receive material from HHonor once an account is opened. Or you can call AMEX to find out once you have the card.

Next time when you apply for any card that is for any program, join that program and get your membership number first - far better this way and avoid any potential mix up / error or whatnot down the road.

I spent quite a bit on Amex HHonor at one of the drug stores ;) and I'd like to have the points from the spending posted to my HHonor account immediately for my Hilton hotel stay next week. The Amex CSRs that I communicated with SM were not willing to initiate the posting citing it can't be done until the monthly balance statement is generated.

Is it the normal procedure? Any way to get the points posted sooner? Do you think calling Amex CSR (most likely located in north America) may have a better chance?

They won't make them post earlier, why should they?

Well, since I have already paid off the balance, they have nothing to lose for posting earlier. I heard Amex is pretty good at posting points earlier if asked, anything they can do to help certainly make loyal card users like me even more happy.

They would only do expedited posting of Membership Reward. They dont seem to do this for either HHonor or SPG.

got it. thanks for the info.

They did post my 50K HH bonus points within a day of me spending $750. (I believe it was day 3 of having the card..the first statement is yet to close)

I applied for this card on Nov. 18th Hit the $750 spend within a few days with Xmas shopping and the 40k points posted with 2-3 days of that level.

I just hit the $3k total spend on this card last week and saw the additional 25k points over the weekend. My current statement closes on 2/12 so it definitely looks like points post when you hit the spend and not the statement close date with this card.

Did not happen to us back in last August. Good to know now the spend bonus posted soon after the spend is met, making it a more uniform procedure among different AMEX products.

I had very similar experience. I busted out the spend all at once and it was quickly deposited - well before the statement hit. Only issue was they opened up a new HH account and the points had to be transferred.

My SPG card had the same behavior - my minimum spend bonuses posted a day or two after I hit the spend. The 1,000 points that came from the normal spend on that card to hit the threshold posted a few days after my statement cut.

Since this offer is not open to the general public I'm moving it to the CCP forum.
