No harm in asking Hilton to confirm your years/nights/points --- remember you need 10 years at Diamond _and_ either 1000 nights or 2m base points.
Thanks - yep, I sent an email inquiring about my progress. There's no rush so no big deal if it even takes a week.
I can't see being anywhere near 1000 nights, probably more than half that but not much more - but possibly at least closer on base points.
