No mention of minimum levels of activity required (scurries off to check whether Hilton Lifetime Diamond for self and wife has any activity requirements).
So what do you make of this clause?
3.12. Membership will terminate automatically:
3.12.1. In the event of the expiry of all Avios points in accordance with clause 14.4, when a Member has not earned or redeemed Avios points or purchased or transferred Avios points in accordance with the Conditions of Use for 36 consecutive months; or
3.12.2. Upon the death of a Member. Any Avios points, Tier Points and Lifetime Tier Points accumulated by that Member but unused at the time of death shall be cancelled.
