Correct...I went from Diamond to Silver and then gold al within a few days....here is my earlier post... Re: Hilton Honours Question
I was status matched by VA to Plat in September 2011 and therefore became an HH Diamond with an expiery date of March 2013.
As this HH status is about to expire and my VA status has dropped to gold, I have assumed that there is no soft landing with HH so I applied for HH gold through VA.
I recieved the email yesterday saying congrats you have been given HH gold...not sure if I have shot myself in the foot but it will be interesting to see what my on line status with HH says on April 1, I am assuming gold.
This is impotant as I have a series of Hilton stays booked for April and I am keen to have some status benefits.
