I did. I had about 110K HH points. What surprised me was that I got the PC points after all (20K points). I was one of those who got the e-mail stating that my verification submission was not properly formatted. I used that "snipping" guide they posted, but I could not get it to work on my PC. So I just copied the page and put it into a PDF file and attached it to the email. I never was able to get it to work the second time for re-submission, so I gave up. I give PC high marks for giving me a "pass" on this. However, I think there were a lot of others out there like me. What's even more great is that they count as part of my YTD point totals. I'll remake Platinum status by the end of next month. Priority Club, how can I not love you? 
I'm pretty surprised the LL points counted toward status. Nice touch.

Nothing for 52,000 HH points. And to think I purposefully waited until after this promotion to redeam a 50,000 point reward.
