I made Diamond some time last week. I suppose that's why I see the error, "An unexpected error has occurred while attempting to process our request...." If I call in will they apply the points or am I out the 5,000 points because I became Diamond before selecting my award?
I get the same error message when I try to redeem my Platinum extras online and I'm still Platinum level so I don't your Diamond status is causing the problem. When I try to redeem the Platinum extras online it says:

"An unexpected error has occurred while attempting to process your request. Please try again later. For assistance, please contact Hyatt Gold Passport Customer Service at 1-800-30-HYATT or your nearest Worldwide Reservation Center."

So I called up customer service and they manually added the points.
