Another Year of Diamond Status Email

Checking the usual influx of emails that come in every day came across one welcoming me to another year of Diamond status today. I don't believe I have received one previous years so nothing special but still nice to know.

Anybody else receive one yet.

I haven't received mine, nor do I really expect to. Nearly all the emails I get from Hilton are junk/spam/sales.

Question WEIRD

My Email was addressed to somebody named "Embassy." WEIRD. So I log in and carefully read my profile, etc., and no where is my name "embassy". Points jive and all other data appears legit, BUT ...

Furthermore, the account overview link states:
Way to go! You're Diamond again for 2018
Your 2017 travel earned you Diamond status again through March 31, 2019....

Now, this absolutely not true... I have not earned Diamond as a BinB (butt in bed) or through "2017 travel" but I have earned it the old-fashioned way .... the good 'ole $40k spend method since January 1st 2018.

More WEIRD ....

So, my question remains: Did anybody else out there get their email addressed to: EMBASSY ??

I received one, and was happy to, since my qualification was via $40K on the Citi card last year. I was concerned about that surviving the transition.

I also received the welcome to another year of Diamond status through to March 2019. Never had that before. It was definitely addressed to me and not "EMBASSY!"

Subject Line: "You've earned Diamond status for 2018!"

Body Text: "It feels great to welcome you to another year of Diamond Status. Way to go! Enjoy your status through March 2019."

Hmm...? 7 stays and 10 nights so far this year with all spend on the AMEX Surpass card.

I received one as well, and I earned my Diamond BinB and not through spending. It does say through March 31, 2019 so... that is odd.

Received the email yesterday, addressed to me, earned by butt in bed...

Good to know they know who I am

A bit of humour, paraphrasing from another source: Hilton loves you...but they love me more!

Safe travels.

Not odd at all - status is always awarded through 3/31 of the following year.

Did not get email, but similar message posted in HH account on the website.

Now waiting for Lifetime Diamond credentials, hopefully coming in April.....

Got the email, honestly not that big of a deal to me. HH gives status like candy to kids... Stop giving it away for free and I'll feel special as a Diamond.
