That guy's probably kidding

Anyways Visa infinite has been in Singapore for many years now. It came out as the highest Visa card. Signature came out here a couple of years after Infinite but is at a lower level than infinite.



My question is, must all 4 stays be with Visa Infinite Card? Previous promo for the 3 stay gold, did people still retain gold without using their registered visa card?
I charge everything to my Amex to accumulate miles

lsed - you should at least make people do some searching instead of posting the card number.

I am 1 of the 18,000+ now . Very simple, though without an actual Infinite card for myself I won't be getting 40k points, but I don't have 4 HH stays coming up anyway so it is all good!

Also, anyone thinking of taking advantage should get on this pronto, now that VFTW and OMAAT have blogged it. If this promo doesn't get yanked within the next 24 hours ... well, I'm already a monkey's uncle, so let's just say I'll be surprised.

Indeed, I didn't even bother to wait for a HHonors enrollment bonus.

It was already on slick deals, so my guess is that a ton of people have seen it already.

But yeah, you shouldn't delay if you're interested.

I consider slickdeals to be below the corporate radar -- not so with the widely read Boarding Area blogs.

I'm curious about the point inflation that's going to happen with all the new people who weren't supposed to be Gold...
maybe Gold will become the "new" blue

I'm going to pass on the chance since the terms of the deal specifically exclude me.

It may be a good idea to log in, do the request card thing.

It is automated and will get you a replacement card sent. Gold one would hope.
