HotelClub

Hello, has anyone ever used their E-Rewards points to redeem HotelClub rewards? And if so, roughly how long it took to get the actual HotelClub credit to post? Was it really 6-8 weeks?

Thanks!

First time I received the question I had to google "crab pot" because I didn't know what it was. I know people who skydive as a hobby and wonder if they would get turned down from surveys for answering the question honestly.

I had a few really funny screening questions two weeks ago asking if I had done certain activities in the last 6 months. One was if I walked on the moon and another was if I fed a dinosaur

There are some of the Apollo astronauts still living. They are the ones who would have a real dilemma as to whether to answer that question honestly.

I don't think any of them (or anyone at all, for that matter) has walked on the moon in the last six months -- or even the last year! In fact, I just checked, and it's been more than 42 years since anyone walked on the moon, so unless the survey says something along the lines of, "in the last 45 years, have you walked on the moon?" there isn't anyone who can truthfully say yes.

e-Rewards HHonors network error

I've also been unable to redeem e-Rewards currency for HHonors points the last two days. My message to e-Rewards is so far unanswered.

As usual, it appears E-rewards may have run out of their supply of HHonors points for a while. They have to purchase those points from Hilton, so that may take a while.

Was able to redeem $50 E-rewards for HHonors points, along with several smaller airline mile redemptions about two weeks ago. All miles/points posted in their usual timeframes, without any hassle.

Patience, and keep checking for the HHonors points to once again show up to redeem, as they seem to run out quickly whenever available.

E-rewards to Avois.com

I have Avios.com account. In July I was redeeming 750 bonus free from e-rewards.com account. In a month I created a new e-rewards account but I couldn't redeem bonus free to my avios.com or any others(mine too).
Here I see: Sorry, but you've already redeemed for a Reward from this partner during this redemption period. Please review the terms & conditions for this Reward.
