The "Missing Stay" page now says if points/stays haven't posted after two weeks, to submit a request.

Is this a change? I thought it used to be a week.

Did that to no avail. Now all past stays are gone too.

„You currently have no points activity“.

And this:

Another thing I just noticed is my stays that are now showing points are not showing the double points bonus which I know I signed up for.

Strange. Since I survived the UA/CO merger disaster and chose to avoid the Marriott/Starwood merger this year I feel like this isn't as bad, but maybe I'm wrong. The UA/CO crap was so bad that I came close to leaving the airline. I still blame Smisek and will happily punch him and accept the assault charge if I ever meet him.

Any input on effects on points transfers?

Anybody had any luck/out of ordinary timing with member to member points transfers? We did our first one on 10/29 (pre-update) from Mrs. 50K to me and it still has not transferred. Being this was our first transfer and we pretty much cleaned out Mrs. 50K's points, I wasn't sure if there is supposed to be some other validation process or something that takes time. What's the typical transfer time? Am I still within a typical transfer window or would I have been better off doing this a week prior? Hoping to book a NYC stay in December.

Thanks!

Hi all,

We appreciate your patience as we work to ensure all stays, nights and Points are reflected in your account following the system update. Your latest account information should be available within the next few days.

Thank you!

Stays from last week are still goofed up. Lauren, what is HH doing to try and make this debacle right for frequent guests? The amount of frustration gained and goodwill lost is simply amazing.

All of my stays for past year are showing 0 points and I’m unable to retrieve the receipt. My stay from Nov 1-5 is not even in the list of past stays.

On a good note / it looks like my point/night/stay balances are correct.

What exactly is Hilton IT trying to do? All my stays have vanished now.

I sometimes wonder why Hilton sticks with this forum and continues to have an official presence. The people here literally complain about *everything*. What is the benefit to them in remaining here? People are going to b**ch no matter what they do. They are eventually going to wise up and go the way of most of the other companies and just leave us here in an echo chamber by ourselves.

Hilton asked for 2 days to update and link new database provider. It's been well over a week now.. Obviously if a realistic time line was provided there would be no .....ing here.

I can only surmise that this post is satire; if it was actually meant to be taken seriously, OP would be well-served by actually reading the numerous documented examples of a massive fail.

UPDATE: It's fixed. The non-working page looked like a mobile/app interface. The working page looks like the old Hilton page. Was able to book the original room I was looking at.

I'll give it a few days to sort itself out if there's no immediate explanation.

Yeah? I just went back and looked, and basically every post PRIOR to the event was either complaints or sarcasm. People were complaining DURING the event (which they had been forewarned about) that things weren't working correctly, and there has been steady complaining AFTER the event.

So tell me - what benefit did Hilton realize from putting the extra effort into creating this post, and giving us all heads-up? I genuinely don't get it.
