The Surpass card was replaced by the Ascend card at the start of 2018, and the benefits changed at the same time as the name.

Also at the start of 2018, the higher-up Aspire card was launched, and Aspire is now the HH card that gives a free weekend night cert with no spend.

The other thing that you have to understand is that prior to 2018, there were two banks (Citi and HH) competing for HH customers, but from the start of 2018 there's only been one (Amex) so they don't need to compete with anyone any more.
