How did you get $5,000 pts?

What do you mean by both? Aren't you already diamond/gold and thus should have gotten the 5K? Or did you just sign up as a new member and get 5K?

Like the wireless companies, they're obsessed with acquisition but do almost nothing about retention, although it is markedly cheaper to retain a loyalist than replace one.
While HH has improved everything Gold and higher lately, I do loathe the ease it gives Gold away.

+1. Either you get gold or free pts.
