linda's on the mark. a number of hotels in the family have not upgraded their folio systems; I've found that if they have a windows based system, the points credit ok (I'm still having problems with the miles, however). some hotels peel off the reservation onto a local computer and lose the link to the web-based reservation. I hate the inconsistency.

i also didnt get the miles automatically and i agree with an earlier writer that its crucial to put HH number in first, perhaps by going thru hhonors site..i emailed [email protected] and got a very nice reply in 48 hours with miles credited..actually ive had very good responses to emails ive sent hhonors also..

Well I've finally sent off to [email protected] my list of 6 hotels I've stayed at that I haven't recieved the booking bonus on... awaiting reply. Funny enough, I haven't been reciving my double miles with British Airways for all my stays either during this Quarter which I'll take up with them under a seperate issue. Will let you know when the points finally hit.

Semper Fi-

Well the 6,000 points were added sometime this afternoon... they made quicktime to that request (thanks [email protected]).

Good news about the extension http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

Extension of the on-line booking bonus
 

Just looked on hhonors.com. Looks like they are extending the 1,000 point on-line booking bonus through July 31, 2002.

1,000 point bonus for online bookings extended
 

I was just on the HHonors main page (updating my profie ! HA!), and I noticed this:

Make your Hilton HHonors Family reservations online and earn 1,000 Hilton HHonors® bonus points.

Earn 1,000 HHonors bonus points when you make reservations online at www.hiltonhhonors.com or at any Hilton HHonors Family brand website by July 31, 2002, for stays completed by July 31, 2002.

Looks like they got smart and extended the online booking bonus.

1000 point online booking bonus
 

The main Hilton Web site touts the 1000 point online booking bonus. Book a room online by 7/31/02 and stay by 7/31/02 and earn 1000 points.

What I don't see is when the promotion started? I've booked and stayed at HH several times in the past several weeks. Also, is there a limit to how many times one can earn this bonus?

Otherwise, GREAT PROMO!

This promo started last year (October 15, I believe), and it has been extended now through July. There is no limit on how many times you can earn this bonus.

I always book my Hilton reservations on line, occasionally my 1,000 points for whatever reason fail to post. When this happens I call Hhonors cutomer service and before I am off the phone, viola my missing 1,000 points appear in my account. I just love Hilton!!

Speaking of great customer service - I had some stays in Italy OVER a year ago that never posted. I also overlooked them until way too long after the fact. But I still had my hotel statements from the stays and HHonors credited them within a few days of faxing them in.

Thanks very much for that info - I have 3 out of 6 stays in the past several months that don't have that 1000 HNET bonus posted. I'm going to send an email.

I sent an email to [email protected] last week about my missing 1000 point bonuses. I have heard nothing, so I just faxed the same letter to the Diamond Desk.

Lately, my HNET bonus has accounted for the majority of the points earned during my stays! (Hampton) http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif
