I signed up for a Hertz rewards account once I heard about this news (added the SPG # in my heartz profile), how does Hertz link my SPG and Hertz account and recognize my SPG Plat? I was trying to see where I can get the "flat 35% off base rent". As of now , I cant seem to get that discount. Also, how do I confirm Hertz has ugraded me to "gold five star"?
Any help will be appreciated.
thanks!

Sign into your Hertz online account. In the upper right-hand corner, click on "My Account" and a drop-down box will appear. The first line of the drop-down menu will show you current Hertz membership level.

Mine hasn't changed either. The confirmation that was displayed after I "successfully" registered for the upgrade said that I would see the upgraded status and receive an email confirmation within 5 business days. That was 7 business days ago, so I resubmitted the registration again today and got the same message. So we'll see. Hopefully, they're just overwhelmed with all of the registrations (which apparently have to be handled manually).

Received an email today from Hertz confirming the status change: "Elevated status begins here"

Is this partnership remaining post-loyalty program merger? I haven't seen any mention of it in the new Marriott/SPG elite level overviews.
