Hey guys, does anyone tried matching to Hyatt recently? Clicking 'Opt in' on mLife website it redirects me to to the following page on Hyatt website: https://world.hyatt.com/content/gp/e...ier-match.html which doesn't really show up (just seeing a blank page).

Hyatt probably changed the relevant URL. I think you need to go to this page instead: https://world.hyatt.com/content/gp/e...rewardslanding

Because I'm mLife Platinum (I just checked). This cannot possibly be due to my high-rolling ways. I stay in Vegas every year or two, choosing a property near the low end (such as NYNY) and always post the points to Hyatt. I probably joined mLife the very first day that the partnership was announced. Perhaps mLife will keep their long-term Plats at Plat status? Not that it's terribly important anyway.

Or ... perhaps ... mLife would gladly match "Diamond" to "Platinum". But mLife has no earthly idea what a "Globalist" is, so it matches to Gold.

I have a feeling that they have closed the loophole so no more automatic matches to Hyatt from MLife.
I guess at this point the only way to do a match is by calling them where they will review the accounts manually, which means they will probably deny match requests for MLife memberships that were earned from matches in the other direction.

I get the same blank page.

I expected to drop to gold today, but I'm still Mlife Platinum. Hmm. Maybe they're just slow to change it.
Previously, I was able to get my wife the same status, but at some point we got 'disconnected'. I called in to get her upgraded to my status but they said that they don't do that for Mlife status through a partner. Maybe they've cracked down on this? Might still work in person at an Mlife desk, though.

I have called reservations and asked them to upgrade the Mlife status when I hit Exp and Glob this year. Both times I was advised that the status link could take up to week, so call ahead of time, but it did go through.
