Same here. This is just great! Thanks to all for passing this along, as with so many other threads on FT, I am informed of another way of making easy points! So nice!^

No 'done' button, no 'save' button, nothing. The only option is to go back to the prior screen without saving your account number. What am I doing wrong? Anybody else having this problem?
You have to hit "GO" at the bottom right hand corner of your keyboard. It took me a bit to figure this out, too.

I'm not quite sure I "get" this.

Are you getting points for actual check-ins - meaning you are staying in the hotel that night - or for virtual check-ins, meaning you could get 50 points/day even when not travelling?

Virtual check-ins have been working for me for the last 2 weeks.... 1 virtual check-in per day = 18,250 points per year!

It's the latter. You don't even need to get out of your armchair to do it.

Until today, no point was credited into my real HHonors and Priority account.

Hilton

Just wanted to update this. I got 50 Hilton points on Jan. 21 for a check-in on Jan. 20. It was a Double Tree Hotel and Suites.

For those of you that haven't received any points, make sure it's a participating hotel on Top Guest and the address matches whatever comes up on 4Square.

PC posts in batches every week. I just got 350 points for last week (50 x 7 days). Also, you can check in to ANY PC brand unlike Hilton which is restricted to Doubletree.

Stupid question time, but are these just 4sq check ins? Or actually checking into the hotel and then using 4sq?

FB Help!

I don't have a smart phone and will be using Facebook for my check ins. I have been doing some digging on FT to try to figure out how to "check in" using FB to get points to no avail. How do I do it? I am first gunning for HHonors, then for PC.
