Points for incidental charges on a non point earning stay
Sorry. I did search, and I couldn't think of a good way to word title.
Recently stayed at Hilton Doha on a Discover Qatar rate booked thru Qatar website. This was a free stay.
I was under the impression though that incidentals charged to the room would earn points (I don't know why I was. Perhaps something I read here).
I did not receive any points. (charges to the free room were about 100 USD).
Should I have?
As always, thank you for your help!

I think you are correct in that some guests have discussed on Flyertalk and have managed to get credits and incidental points on ineligible stays, but I think they just got lucky and the hotel made a mistake.
