With all this discussion of Hilton GCs, we may be losing sight of the simplest answer (KISS). Gotta ask.

Would the full $50 (quarterly) AmEx Biz Plat Hilton credit be posted after charging exactly $50 to a registered Biz Plat card at check-out from a Hilton property?

Generally speaking, other than those properties that have been identified as being “challenging” for GC use, are properties amenable to at checkout our saying (for example) “please charge $50 to this Biz Plat card, $50 to this other Biz Plat card, $50 to each of these 2 or 3 or 4 GCs and the remaining balance to the credit card on file”?

Are hotels happy to get their/our money however they can or do they not want to deal with that sort of hassle/complication?

Thank you.

(I got though college and medical school and all sorts of Navy training and private pilot training by asking questions in group settings about which I well knew the answer but thought other people might not be so certain. Many classmates in all sorts of settings have said to me “thank you for asking that question, I wasn’t sure about it but I didn’t want to ask the question because I thought I was the only one who didn’t understand and I didn’t want to look stupid”. Of course, the appearance of stupidity has never stopped me from doing anything 😉.)
