2,500 Bonus points
2,500 bonus points on your next stay completed within 60 days of registering.
It's referred to as the "Service Center Thank You Bonus!"
Code AGNT
Some of the CSR's aren't up to speed on it yet so I would refer to it both ways. One person was told it's targeted for people that haven't stayed in awhile. Just call back I know someone who just signed up for HH this week and they got it added to their account.

That's cool. Sounds like a way for AGeNTs to "give" away points but not without getting something in return for the company.
Of course, unless something has changed, the agents are actually authorized to give points away. Any time you have any type of problem, or are just feeling particularly charming, you can always ask for a courtesy credit or "Service Center Adjustment", as it appears on your statement.
I've gotten them for up to 5,000 points, on more than one occasion.

When I called up the agent said that it was only for members who haven't had activity in their accounts recently. That being said, she talked to a supervisor and gave me the bonus anyway. She says that it will post after the next stay I have (not sure how much later).

I don't know. Do you get other points for non-paid stays? If not then I would guess you won't for this one either. If so I would like to know how you do that.

Thank you for the post! As luck would have it, tonight will be the "next stay" for us for the 2500 pts. I called and asked told the agent I wanted to sign up for promo code AGNT. She couldn't find it, and asked where I'd gotten it from. I told her it was in a mailing, that I guess I hadn't stayed in a while. She put me on hold, came back, and put in the code! Yahoo!
