Hello, after almost 12 months hiatus from Hilton I've finally got a trip coming up to book. While I am making the booking under my own account I will be using my travelling companions credit card to make the booking. It appears the new booking engine which has been implemented over the last year does not allow you to enter the name on the credit card. It uses the name on your account and only allows for the number. Which as expected the transaction is declined.

Does anyone know a work around to this?

Seems a bit of an oversight (maybe?) as I'm sure there are many who use credit cards in different names (spouse, changed last name, business booking etc)

As an interim measure, perhaps phone the hotel to make the booking.

Edit: You could make the booking online, using your card details. Then, on check-out, pay with the other card. Unless you are making a pre-paid booking?
