That guy's probably kidding
Anyways Visa infinite has been in Singapore for many years now. It came out as the highest Visa card. Signature came out here a couple of years after Infinite but is at a lower level than infinite.
If you want to use a Singapore card number it will be xxxx
My question is, must all 4 stays be with Visa Infinite Card? Previous promo for the 3 stay gold, did people still retain gold without using their registered visa card?
I charge everything to my Amex to accumulate miles

You are not much better. Why don't you delete the card number!

More watering down of mid level benefits, and HH still refuses to differentiate Diamond...

I only just saw this myself and it seems to be dead. I've tried a handful of different numbers that seem like they should work and they all error out. The fact that the page is still up is interesting though.

I imagine that all those who signed up on this deal and don't actually hold such a visa card will eventually be downgraded again to silver after their 4th stay not paid with the infinite visa card.
Hi all,
I signed up for the Visa Signature quickie promo but I messed up and didn't pay my stays with Visa so I got downgraded to Silver. I just received this e-mail however...
"Right now, you're a Silver Hilton HHonors™ member, and we know you enjoy all the benefits your elite status provides. As of October 28, 2011, you only need 12 more stays to upgrade to Gold status. But when you sign up for the Status Shortcut Offer , each stay through the end of the year will count double toward the number of nights needed to elevate your elite status. That means you will continue to earn HHonors points as you always do, but you will need only 6 stays before December 31, 2011, to upgrade your Silver status for the next year.
So sign up and get all the extra benefits of Gold status in half the stays."
Interesting...I usually do four separate stays a week so this could be fulfilled very very quickly...

I have no problem with matching status or making it on some sort of challenge, but if they're just giving out gold for the whole year here, it's just more devaluation along with premium room rewards hit.
Sorry to sound bitter

U.S.-issued Visa Signature cardholders can earn instant Hilton HHonors™ Gold membership by registering for the promotion at www.hhonors.com/visasignature. After registering, HHonors members will receive Gold benefits for all stays through August 31, 2011. If, after registering, the HHonors member completes three stays by August 31, 2011, using their Visa Signature card, then they will retain their Gold membership through March 31, 2013
The Promo conditions were different for Visa Signature programme. The Visa Infinite promotion does not state that you need to pay with the Infinite card to maintain the status.
