    How do Hilton treat you as an Elite?

    Booking UK properties is an absolute pain in the backside - all to do with the new credit card online purchasing rules which changed last year. At least with Amex you can white list Hilton - using my work Mastercard is a right pain. it’s not unique to Hilton though TBH.
