I'm not normally one of the internet-paranoid posters; however, I am a bit concerned that when I click on the link (www.hiltonhhonors.com/cocacola), it re-directs me to http://www.rothgraham.com/cola/registercola.php
This site actually then asks me for my Hilton Hhonors number AND PIN.
#1 I don't know why they'd need my PIN, but
#2, The site is not secure.
Any thoughts?

The promo with the 500 points for booking on-line is confusing at best:
1. Do stays booked prior to September 1 that occur during the timeframe of the promo (9/1 - 12/15) receive the 500 point bonus if I pay with VISA?
2. Do the stays have to be booked with the VISA card to receive the bonus points or do I only have to pay with a VISA?
Wish HHonors would make these things clearer. As it is, I checked the 8 stays I have booked between 9/1 and 12/15. In seven of those cases, I can't re-book because the rates have increased (3), the hotel is sold-out (1), or I used a NET Direct rate to pre-pay (3). I re-booked the one I could just in case stays booked prior to 9/1 don't qualify.

Hi BigJim,
We ( Hilton HHonors) hired Roth Graham an advertising/marketing agency that has handled many Hilton HHonors promotion in the past to administrate this sweepstakes. To that, they are hosting the promotional landing page on their site. They are requiring a PIN, because if you won, we would need to (via. certified mail) send you an affidavit of eligibility and other paperwork. To make it easier, for HHonors members, with your PIN, we (with their help) can grab it from your profile. I am completely comfortable with Roth Graham handling this and understand your initial concern.
Thanks and good luck in the promotion if you choose to register.

Hilton HHonors(R) Gives You More Points and More Ways to Win When You Book Online
So I get this e-mail from our HH friends this morning (below). I was most interested in the "More Points" part of the message. But I don't see anything in the message other than the title that tells me how I get "More Points" (other than getting them the old fashioned way--booking more stays at HH). I was expecting some kind of offer for "Bonus" points. Lame.

Must give credit where credit is due
Here's the response that I received back today. I'm glad that she decided to pursue further.
Hi BigJim,
Because of your inquiry I did some additional digging with our agency. You were correct and the encryption that we always complete was unfortunately not complete on the form where members would fill in their information. Our agency has since apologized and fixed the problem and we are monitoring the accounts of members who had registered through Wednesday for suspicious HHonors account activity.
Thank you for bringing this to our attention, it is much appreciated!

And Marriott is pushing their Visa like crazy, but the latest 25K promo requires an AMEX card!
You can't get ahead without a scorecard these days.

The Rothgraham website now does have the https://
I too did not register and won't take part when my PIN is required.
I did have a stay on 9/3 that was reserved in August and did not receive the 500 points for using a Visa. Either registration was required for the bonus miles or the reservation did need to be made after 9/1. Maybe someone else can post their experience.
My stay on 9/3 however was excellent! A fairly new Hampton in Muskegon MI that upgraded me to a whirlpool suite room without my asking. They were extremely friendly and welcoming there.
