It depends on how you achieved Diamond.
If it was a status match, and you only have only stayed 1 or 2 nights, or none as of yet, you will not be able to get a status match with another chain.
Usually, the other competitor will ask you to fax in a statement of stays, as evidence.
If however, you got diamond by staying the required nights with Hyatt, you should get a status match with virtually every other competitor.
Most forums have a status match thread with plenty of detail in to read.

This is what my statement says :
*Qualified Stays YTD: 18
Tier: Diamond Member
*Qualified Nights YTD: 44
Tier Expiration: 28 Feb 2011
Lifetime Points Earned: 226,245
Do you think I'll qualify?
Also could someone point me to exact status match thread from competitors?

Yes, you probably will qualify. But bear in mind that you will get only ONE status match in each other program. Thus, I would advise you not to match with every program if you don't really need it @:-)

Then your status is really not earned the old fashioned way. However, I don't think you'll have any problems since you did stay a lot. As already pointed out, status matches are once in a lifetime events so don't go crazy and match to all programs at once, especially this late in the year. You want have a lot of time to sample them all before deciding which one(s) you want to keep next year.
