I find that some parts of Europe and much of Asia upgrade Gold and Diamond members regularly. The US, not so much. Not sure about the UK.
I suspect that might be the case in a market where status is ubiquitous via credit cards. The UK doesn't have a credit card that gives Hilton Gold status, so if we're not ten-a-penny then there's a bit more of a chance, I suppose.
