   As an additional data point, I was a Covid diamond member being downgraded to Silver in March this year. The offer shows up in my active offers.

   I reached out to a chat support agent and got the reply “As I can check you are registered for the promotion and its states that you have to complete 1 more stay, but I will suggest you to confirm it from our Hilton Honors desk 1-800-548-8690 for further clearification [sic].”

   I called the HH desk and was given a firm “You need to receive the email to be eligible, even if it shows the active offer on your profile”.

   I’ve taken screenshots and I might try my luck anyway.

     @ SiDe

     Yeah – and some are reporting 2 nights needed for Gold retention…the inconsistency is perplexing…!

   Cool…

   …if readers can see the offer in “active” status in their accounts of the tier promo (as nicely explained above), one option is to check with a live agent per the chat facility that the offer:

   – Is actually active for that account
   – That only one night is needed

   Screen copying the chat can provide back up in case of problems later!

   IME the tracker for status changed over from Gold to Platinum once I had booked the requisite stay (noting I booked in the morning for a stay that night) rather than completing the stay actual stay.

   Obviously there’s the prudent option to sign up for the other current double point promos before making the stay!

   FWIW the math on that one stay:

   Cost – $250
   Points earned (stacked promotions) – 6764
   Potential redemption value (at an aspirational property) – c. $150 to $175
   Upgraded room – about $100 double step up from base king to executive king
   Lounge and breakfast benefits honoured
   Platinum secured for another year rather than soft landing to Gold…..;)

   (OT: some first class ANA awards between Tokyo and SFO are currently bookable on Krisflyer miles (among others) around April/May/early June 2023)

   Has the expiry of Dine Like a Member extended to 31 December 2021 for Australia? The Terms and Conditions of the HH website shows expiry for Australia as 30 September 2021.

     I have no idea if Hilton themselves know about this offer, I called both Hilton Sydney & West Hotel Sydney Curio, both had no idea of the promotion? I then called Hilton Honors and they also had no clue

     I cant find any information that this works, has it worked for anyone?

       Hi TMDL, the T&Cs are here on Hilton’s website. The offer definitely exists as we received a media release about it in October.
