My husband has been a member since 2004, travels for work alot and prefers Hilton brands so he made another request and eventually they agreed to give us back our points. Lufthansa never ended up getting back to us even after I submitted all our bank info to be reimbursed the 3 hotel nights, train tickets and taxi so eventually we got paid by our credit card company and hopefully they subrogated against Lufthansa.
So you finally stayed several days for free, as you didn't have to pay for any hotel costs.
Do you regard this as rightful and fair?
