I did have a stay in Jan, but have not received my statement yet. If I do not receive my statement before March 31st, how much you wanna bet I get the bonus next quarter?!?</font>
Please share your secret on how you will do it!

candidly, I disagree... get rid of FTD.com, automallonline.com and keep the 4k threshold bonus... reward those that stay, and punish those that do not...

besides, doesn't HH get paid via the Reward Transfer?

Hilton will not get rid of FTD.com, automallonline.com because they GENERATE revenue. These firms are buying points from Hilton to award to people.

Threshold bonuses on the other hand are a giveaway. So whilt they were nice while we had them, I am afraid there is not much that will happen to reinstitute them. Unless, that is Hilton finds itself cometiting with similar bonuses from Sheraton, Hyatt, Holiday Inn etc. At least that is my take on it.

this would seem to be contrary to the HH company line:

<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2">Originally posted by milesmilesmiles, attributed to HH service desk:
"Based on the numerous outlets available to our Hilton HHonors members for earning bonus points, such as the Reward Exchange program, AutoMall.com,and FTD.com, it has been determined that the Airline Partner bonus and Threshold bonus are currently not financially feasible.</font>
as stated before, I agree with you... I think that they *are* getting money from those programs, which makes the "not financially feasible" comment difficult to digest...
