Do you pay with a Surpass card and get reimbursed?

stop the snark RIGHT NOW!

Please refrain from using insulting language to each other and/or especially about specific groups of people that have nothing to do with the issue. Thanks.

Great... My only Hilton stay during this promo, and it's a 4 nighter, is on the not participating list - Melbourne Docklands... And I'm paying for a suite...

I still don't really think this is completely legit

Book and stay at any of the 4,000 hotels in 90 countries before January 31, 2014, and earn points fast
Then at the bottom in the fine print they go on to say

The offer ~~~ is valid for eligible stays ~~~ at any participating hotel or resort in the Hilton HHonors™ portfolio (click here for hotels who have chosen to not participate)
Shouldn't they at least have an asterisk somewhere in the large print, i.e; "..at any of the 4,000 hotels* in 90 countries.."

Curious to know what the regulations are for this kind of thing in the USA. Does anybody know?

The list of non-participating properties is pretty small, especially outside the USA. 24 non-US properties plus 299 US properties--less than 10% of Hilton's portfolio. And from a quick glance, most of the non-participating properties are Hamptons and HGIs and such. Only two Conrads and no Waldorfs on the list.

It worked for me. 1,000 Points posted on Monday along with the points for a 4 night stay. Strangely enough, I only received 1.5x bonus points instead of 4x for the Q4 promo. The posting on my account still says pending so I am assuming the points calculation has not been completed yet or there is a system error. I will follow-up with the hhonors desk in a few days if the error is not corrected.

Ok so here is what I earned on this trip and I think I have been shorted. Let me know what you guys think. I checked in on Oct 8th and checked out on Oct 13 and paid the 2x points for the room. The promo started on Oct 10 so I should have gotten 3x on my base, I didn't. Take 8046 divided by 5 gives you 1609 a night base points. Then X that by 3 nights then by 3x again for the bonus. Should I have not gotten 14481 instead of the 9654? Also be careful when you change your double dip options. I changed mine 2 days after this trip was over and that is what they gave me not what they were at check-in. I like this but the rules are not what they say they are supposed to be.

Well, here is mine. Clearly there must be something wrong as the bonus points because they do not equate to 3x of base points

Stay: Oct 9th-13th

2013/14 MORE NIGHTS MORE POINTS OFFER 11434 (shouldn't this be 3x base?)
Base Points 7623
DIAMOND VIP BONUS 3811
50% BONUS ON BASE POINTS 3811
DIAMOND MYWAY BONUS 1000
MOBILE APPLICATION PROMOTION 1000

The bonus of triple points includes base points. You therefore have to multiply your base points by 2 to get your "triple" bonus. This appears to have been done and you correctly have the bonus of 9654 points. It's always confusing, these double, triple, quadruple points offers. The Hhonors T & C confirm that triple points means base points plus a bonus of double base points. See also the Wiki at the top of this page.

Same again here, "triple" base points for your 3 nights is correctly 2 x base points. Average base points per night are 7623/4 = 1905.75. Base points for 3 nights of promotion are 1905.75 x 3 = 5717.25. Triple bonus is 5715.25 x 2 = 11434.5
