I took advantage of the instant gold offer that Hilton sent to me. A second account was mandatory and now I am Double Gold. I just checked into my favorite Hampton Inn, it occured to me that I only received ONE Hampton Touch amenity when it should have been TWO, one for each account. My complaints for a second KitKat were met with blank stares. Glancing at the 100% satisfaction guarantee printed on my key card, I was finally offered an apple. Aggrevated, I went back to the room where genius struck once again. If Gold status requires 16 stays and Diamond 28, and I am Double Gold, then shouldn't I be instant Diamond? The hhonors rep on the phone could not follow my logic. Do they ever?

I just may have to move my business elsewhere!!

The double gold status means that you are "for-sure for-sure" a gold. Your request to the HH rep would be like asking you doctor if you could trade your 40 year old spouse in for two 20 year olds.
