This is just an FYI since the last few times I was tagged in a post, I never received the notification. It had to be called out there was no reply or I had to run across it on my own.

“If you choose to tag someone, in order for them to get a notification of it, you'll need to type out their entire username instead of using the partial auto-fill that pops up. In this instance, if you type in Hilton Honors Amb and click on it to fill out the rest of the username, I will never be notified. However, if you continue to type Hilton Honors Ambassador IB tells me that I will get one.

Note: Our Hilton Honors Ambassador does post when he heads out of town and won't be accessing FlyerTalk: Hilton Honors Ambassador is Out of Office - Also, since he's not available on weekends, your posts, tags citing Hilton Honors Ambassador or PMs may not be seen.

Hi I hope you can help me. For a while now no one can send me points. Today I called Hilton again. They told me to open a new account and they would integrate the old one. Was then everything done but still no one can send me points. I just do not know what to do. What can be the reason for this?

My apologies for the inconvenience. I do not know, personally, what could be causing this. If you would like for me to ask someone who might, send me your full name and Honors account number via Private Message here at FlyerTalk.

Best regards,

William

If this is the same incident you posted about here Hilton Honors Account Compromised? and here Hilton Honors Account suspended, it is no wonder your account is locked. You tried to buy points and status which is against the T&C.

Now Hilton has suspended my Account and say the Sender have to say this Transaktion was ok, but he was hacked and i Never recieve points.

what can i do? I write it to Hilton fraud, but i think they Want Let it suspend.

Stupid question... As I am retiring and the spouse keeps on traveling, I have problems opening a new account and especially purchasing points and maybe later joining the accounts. Myself I am over half way to LTD and have not used the diamond spare year. We have the same credit card as first alternative, and a very credible history. Points.com stays stingy...

Points transfer does not work

Hello,

i have an issue with transfering points from one Honors account to another Honors account.
Whenever i want to do this via
https://www.hilton.com/en/hilton-hon...ansfer-points/
I get an error message:

We're sorry. Something went wrong.

We're sorry, something went wrong with your transaction.

Please click here to try again.
I already email Hilton Honors service desk but got only a message "We will have a look into it" with no real answer so far, and thats over 10 days ago now.

What´s wrong with this feature?

The same happens when I try to purchase points - I believe the issue is with points.com and not with Hilton itself. I have a case / ticket opened and currently waiting but was kindly asked to be patient ...

Every promo is different and some benefit more than others because of the differences. Many were more generous last year because of limited hotel demand. You may wish to familiarize yourself with these programs.
