Just tried to sign up. But as a UK customer (who spends a lot of time in the US and uses UBER) I was not able to get past the initial sign up page as I didn’t have a US mobile phone.
If they can sort it, I’ll sign up and use Lyft over Uber whenever possible

Anyone get theirs to post yet? I got an email after my trip from Points dot com telling me I needed to finish linking (I guess my hilton info didn't take fully during the link process). So thats a good sign, vs. many Delta points I lost out on to glitches.
As for JetBlue... I never fly, never earn.. so not sure worth singing up for just that? Maybe wait for a promo signup bonus there.

I was able to sign up and my points have posted on both Delta and Hilton, all with no issues. I have been using Lyft for riding around town, and just had my first airport rides. I had forgotten that Delta awards are doubled for airport rides! It still isn’t going to be a fruitful source of rewards, but I’ll take what I can get!

My points from yesterday's Lyft ride, first since linking Hilton, have posted. Uber is usually cheaper, but once in a while they're roughly the same. I always use Lyft with airports for double Delta + Jet Blue benefits.

The service is janky af. Multiple times I've gotten nag mails and gotten "Service Unavailable" trying to claim points. Seriously, guys, how hard is it to have your web service you are advertising and sending nag mail about up and running? What, are you shooting for one nine availability?

I got both. You may wish to see if both accounts are still linked by logging into your Lyft account on desktop then clicking "Connected Services".

Has anyone had problems linking accounts recently? I keep getting the same error over and over (internal server error) when I try to link my accounts.

Earlier this year, Hilton announced a new partnership with Lyft, where travelers can earn Hilton Honors points on every ride by linking their Hilton and Lyft accounts. If you haven’t yet linked your Honors and Lyft accounts, do so before November 15th and complete a Lyft ride to receive 1,000 bonus points, on top of the points you can already earn on Lyft rides.
