I wouldn't be surprised if they did make everything systemwide category 7 for our added convenience

Well I'm glad I didn't switch cards now as it cost me 150K points ( Glon2) for 6 nights in the Doubletree/Hilton Clearwater as a Cat 5 in 2010.
As a Cat 6 it will be 180K ( VIP) for 6 nights so it's not much of an increase compared at least compared to what a Cat 7 would have beeen.
I rarely stay at any hotel so I had 2 HGI stays last year, I charge about $3,600 a month on my HV and HAMEX.
6 free nights each year in a $300/night hotel plus free breakfast is pretty good to me

& now with a targeted promo for q2, hilton just keeps sinking deeper & deeper....
first they had the devaluation, then they gave away a free night to certain diamonds (we have no clue how they selected these diamonds) & now we have a targeted promo (again no clue how these members were targeted)....

HHonors is back to "business as usual".
Now I realize why I was not seeing info about a Q2 promotion.
So it's time to seek out greener pastures.
Like for good.
Adios HHonors.....

Time To Switch!!!
Just tried to redeem a 3 night weekend stay at a Hampton Inn in NYC. They wanted 40,000 points per night, R U KIDDING ME???
I sent a request to SPG for a status match. As soon as the the Platinum package arrives, I'll be moving the rest of my hotel stays to SPG...

Why does it matter that we aren't sure how members for the newest promo were targeted?
I'm sure Hilton isn't the only program to run targeted promos.

Well, we already know that there is a more general Q2 promo coming and we pretty much know what it will be (double points or free night after 10 nights).
Why does it matter that we aren't sure how members for the newest promo were targeted?
I'm sure Hilton isn't the only program to run targeted promos.
