Requalification for Gold
Hi there,
sorry if this has been asked before but I did not find it anywhere and maybe it's just an IT glitch... but the official website states (after logging in):
"To maintain your Gold status, you need:
36 more nights or 4 more stays or 60,000 more Base points."
As I did not have a stay with Hilton so far this year.. how comes ?

Their counter has to have a glitch in it. I requalified for Diamond towards the end of January just on my Am Ex spend and it always shows how many nights, stays, points I need to requalify even though I requalified 5 months ago

It's a glitch. See this thread among others:

I had the same typo on my account. Thinking it was some sort of promo, I changed a recent 3 night stay to 3 different Hilton hotels. Unfortunately, it still says I am 4 stays away from Gold. (or 33 nights...) I am disappointed.

Many thanks for pointing me to the other thread !
But just wow.. so the possibilities are:
a) the counter is plain wrong and will not change when I stay
b) the counter is plain wrong and will rise if I stay
c) the counter is right and will update to " XX more stays until diamond".. if I stay..
Me thinks that maybe not LH has got the worlds worst IT..

For those of you who see this bogus counter, where is it?
After I log in, my Account Summary on the left just shows:
If I knew when my current status expires, I could know whether I have to do the math (16 - 6 = 10 more stays needed), or not worry about it (if my status is good through 3/2014, it won't make a difference to my Gold status continuing what I do until next January). I got my current Gold status via MVP Fast Track in April, and per another post in another thread, apparently that may be good through 3/2014. So is that why I don't have a counter? (Except I don't remember a counter from before either.)
After I log in, my Account Summary on the left just shows:
sdsearch
HHonors #: xxxxxxxxx
HHonors Gold
lots of TOTAL POINTS
Qualifying Summary what's this?
Stays Completed: 6
Nights Completed: 11
Base Points: not so many
I see nothing to show my progress toward either requalifying or toward qualifyihng to a higher level (Diamond).HHonors #: xxxxxxxxx

if you go to the new website www3.hilton.com, in the top right it asks you to log in. If you do it here, without going to the HHonors website, it will have a counter of how many nights. stays and points are still needed to keep your status. It is not available in the "My Account" section.

I have:
http://hhonors1.hilton.com/en_US/hh/home_index.do
as my bookmarked site for HHonors, and have never seen any of this garbage there. Forgive me, please, if I don't bookmark www3.hilton.com, I don't understand the use of that as a starting point.
