I haven't checked, but is there a thread about this in the HH forum? Seems to me that everyone over here is looking because they have an Amex Plat - may be interesting to see if anyone without the Amex got bumped.
I do have the Plat and did register for the original promo, but it did nothing for me at the time as I was already HH Gold from base points last year.
I did not requal for 2015 Gold (based on 2014 stays/points), but did get the email extending it to me even through I didn't meet the stay/point requirements. In case it makes any difference, I did burn through around 350k HH points last year and have several expensive stays booked with them this year...
