I just attempted to do a match from Marriott Platinum into Hilton, and I was rejected... unclear why as I provided screenshots of two reservations from November and a screenshot of my "platinum" status on the my account screen (which, sadly, is the only thing I could find with my status). Any recommendations on documentation I can provide to match from Marriott to Hilton?

That was all I provided when I applied for status match in September. And I assume that the Platinum screenshot showed your nights and points for 2018?
The only thing I could think of is that someone messed up considering they are swamped with the January transition for current members.
I would re-apply using the same screenshots and double check that they upload and that your HHonors number is typed correctly. Also disable any kind of adblocker plugins.

This seems likely. They told me to respond by email with new screenshots, which I did, and I got a response within a few hours saying to find out about the program and submit a match through their website . They didn't even bother to read the support thread!

Well, they have reset my account, and now for several days I have been experiencing "we are getting your Hilton Honors account ready for 2019". So no doubt it will revert to needing 20 stays or 40 nights. Shame, I thought for a moment that their rubbish IT was going to work in my favour.

Status Match Help

I applied for a status match here to be matched to the diamond level from my Marriot Platinum: https://statusmatch.hiltonhonors.com/

It's been over 10 days and no word back from Hilton. I called Hilton and they made me re-submit again.

Does anybody have a phone number that can connect me with an agent that can see my submission? Every time I call they say there's nothing they can do and I just have to wait even though it's been over 2 weeks. The lady yesterday I called had me re-submit on that form.

I have a stay coming up and would like Diamond status for the free breakfast.

Thanks!

This is not the news you wanted. However I have been waiting since early December for my match. Several phonecalls emails and resubmission later and still no joy.

I have given up! The ironic thing is that I would have qualified to diamond already by now since the first submission.

there is no confirmation they have received your request. The customer service is incompetent they only keep asking you to resubmit the information.

they have been caught up with so much IT problems. Last year's point have only just been updated.

If any hilton staffers read this you need to do better.

About 3 biz days for the initial reply. The email address was [email protected].

I don’t believe I’m eligible to gift anything until I requalify for next year. Sorry!

Anyone recently match from Marriott Rewards? They keep asking for additional information, none of which appears to be available on website or app. Nothing appears to have my full name on it, along with my current status, and recent activity. Any suggestions on where to look online? I haven't had a physical MR card in years.

Thanks,

Mike

Yeah, sorry @MPReston but I'm in an endless loop...

1) Submit Marriott stuff
2) Get e-mail saying, "not good enough", reply to this e-mail
3) Reply to e-mail with more stuff
4) Get e-mail saying, "please go to this web page if you want a status match"

It's hopeless. I've basically given up.
