Update :
My status bar is still not updated and I e-mailed Hhonors again today to ask if it would be possible for them to update the status bar manually.
Seems not as the reply was a 'thank you for your valuable feed-back'.
I usually take screen shots of my account page after each stay has posted in case I need some proof at some point, now I just have to rely on Hilton's system counting correctly which I am not overjoyed with.
I just hope I won't end up having trouble at the end of the year
re requalification.
