Given my Diamond status came from a status match from Marriott back in 2019, that seems an appropriate comment
I got mine from VA Gold this year too. Happy to see it get extended until 03/23Just got my status bump to gold in from velocity. Looking forward to enjoying it through 2022
Snap! My earlier comment was my 1000th also (it's ticked over since then). Mine took a while longer!I got mine from VA Gold this year too. Happy to see it get extended until 03/23
Edit : Oh & btw, this is my 1000th post in AFF So glad I'm here
Same, but I thought it was longer ago than 2019and I got mine from the Macquarie card about then and from the T&C I was only supposed to get gold and I got Diamond. Now I just need to go somewhere that I can use it (apart from Adelaide)
It could well be longer than that and I love it's fee free for life as wellSame, but I thought it was longer ago than 2019
You'll need another 12, to get to 42 for next year (17 rollover + 13 needed + 12 more).Good news - they were going to have to do something, at least for our region.
It's getting confusing though, I have 43 nights, 26 are rollover nights, so I guess I'm rolling over 17?
But Diamond already rolled over so next year's nights tally is irrelevant?
Or do I need another 13 by Dec 22 to get extended to 2024?
How do you get the free nights?I got the HH Diamond extension mail overnight, as well. Like a few others here, it's extra sweet in that status was initially gifted from the Macquarie Hilton Card, which was a fee-free product for me, back in mid 2018. Without more than a handful of nights, and the situation in the industry, I'll have racked up no less than about 5 years worth of Diamond status thanks to that little trick. Oh, and 2 or 3 free nights as well.
Cheers,
Matt.

That was from the Mac Bank card - I think it was an annual free night for $x spend? They also credited one when they ended the relationship and pulled the card, together with extending the status... so far, into perpetuity

30% reduction for next year rather than 50% for this year.Oh I see, I thought they'd be the same as this year (30). I guess it's gradually getting people back up to the normal levels.
