....i didn't think i was going to get it. Not sure I will even need it, but just in case as I expect to be around 70,000 miles flown.

Here's a tough one ...
I diamond forced a two-night stay at the ES in Des Moines last week. Did it over the phone. For some reason, the agent had to book each night as a separate reservation. I didn't have to check out and check in again, but at the end of the stay, I had two separate folios -- one for each night. Moreover, it hit my HH account as two, one-night stays. Clearly this won't qualify for the MQM bonus, and maybe it shouldn't, since this was the only way I could get into the hotel. But, if I wanted to see about 'combining' the stays for the MQM bonus, do you all think I'd have any luck? Who should I call -- HH or DL?
Thanks.

I would email HH through their website as it seemed to work for me. Explain in detail the situation about the booking with the conf# numbers and the reason why you wanted one 2 night stay and how they gave you 2 one night stays. Request to receive the 1000 MQM bonus and be sure to state that this was the resason you chose their hotel chain!
don't expect a response from HH. if you get the MQM, great, if not, you tried. let us know what happens.

I got the 1000 MQMs 1 week after my stay, but I didn't get any regular miles for the stay (nor did I get the eAdvantage promo miles). Has this happened to anyone else?
And yes, I am signed up to receive points/miles, not points/points. I did receive the appropriate number of HH points.

I hope the regular miles post. I am a little concerned now! I have been getting my MQM's post but none of the regular miles which normally post within a few days after my stay.
Keeping my fingers crossed!

I think I messed up on this one. I forgot to regsiter for the program! But I did have a more-than-two-night stay at a Hilton. I just registered yesterday for the promo. I can't figure out from the T&C whether this will work or not. It isn't clear to me that I needed to register before the hotel stay or not. Has anyone registered AFTER the stay and received their MQM credits? -Chris

I believe you need to have registered before your stays.

Is anyone else having a problem with they way they are showing up this time around?
I just checked, during April/May I had 14 stays for 19 nights.
Delta shows 7 stays and 2K in Bonus miles.
Is this a Hilton or a Delta Problem?

No problem, here. It's not the number of stays, but how many 2 consecutive night stays you had during the period (see promo details). I had 10 stays and 17 nights (4 of which were multiday stays). All of my stays/bonus miles have posted on DL. My last stay was 5/23 (which posted 5/30).

I've had the 1000 bonus and MQM's post for all 3 of my 2 night stays in May - all posting within 4 or 5 days at the most, but have not seen the regular "double dip" 500 miles for each post yet, though they show in my Hilton Account.
Since I have never chose airline miles from Hilton until this promo I'm not sure how long it takes those to post - monthly sweep from Hilton to DL?

I think I have a problem...
I checked out of a Hampton Inn after a 1-night stay on Saturday, May 31. My stay finally posted on the HHonors site. The "DELTA MQM PROMOTION 04/08 - <HOTEL NAME>" is missing but all the other activity lines are present (i.e. Base points, VIP bonus points, 100 double dip DL points, and MyWay Bonus Option points). The entries have a 'Date Added' of 01-Jun-2008.
I'm thinking everyone who checked out on 05/31 (still within the promo T&C) will not get the bonus MQMs automatically.
Any idea who to call? I guess I'll try the HHonors folks first and post my results.

Nevermind... I was re-reading the T&C before making the phone call and noticed:
...completion of a minimum two-night stay required.
