Many students will worry about what to do if the accumulated points expire. How long is the credit valid? Is there any way to extend the validity of points? I will answer these questions for you today.
first of all, we should know that the points of major hotel groups are valid, usually ranging from one to two years. For people who often stay in the hotel, they can get points every time they stay in the hotel (except the points room), and the validity period of the points will be automatically extended, so you don't have to pay attention to it.
But if you don't have a hotel plan in the coming year, you should see when your points will expire. Integral is money, don't waste it in vain. Nowadays, mobile phones have a reminder function. Just remember to set it. For example, the Iphone has a "reminder" function.

Answer on December 25th, 222: How do Hilton Diamond members enjoy the free room
The membership level of Hilton Honorary Guest Club is divided into four levels: member, silver card, gold card and diamond card. There is also a lifetime diamond card, which is not within the scope of the introduction strategy discussion.
_
Hilton's promotion/relegation follows the standard SNP:
s means Stay, no matter how many nights it stays, it counts as 1s;
N is Night, and staying for one night counts as 1n;
P is the Point, and the consumption recognized by the hotel can accumulate points during the stay.
official website's introduction to the membership program:
(1) Member benefits
The main benefits of Hilton members are as follows:
_
There are several highlights in the membership benefits:
If you spend $1 in Hilton hotels, you will get 2% for silver cards, 8% for gold cards and 1% for diamond cards.
the fifth night's free accommodation means that you only need to pay four nights' points if you stay for five consecutive nights with points, and the points will be reduced and exchanged for the lowest night.
the gold card can enjoy free breakfast (actually breakfast/1 of 2 welcome points) and free room upgrade depending on room conditions. In addition to the gold card rights, the diamond card also enjoys administrative courtesy and presents the membership of relatives and friends.
The room nights beyond the current membership can be carried over to the next year as the room nights for relegation/upgrade in the next year (note that only the room nights are available. Policies have fluctuated in recent years).
Milestone Award: After staying for 3 nights in a calendar year, you can earn an additional 1, points for every 1 nights (the policy has fluctuated in recent years).
(II) How to upgrade
In addition to the above requirements for upgrading/relegation in 222, Hilton also provides several methods for rapid upgrading/relegation.
1. Hilton Official Challenge
If you have middle or senior membership of Marriott, Intercontinental, Hyatt, Best Western, Choice or other international hotel groups, you can apply for a challenge with your membership card and recent check-in record.
You can start the challenge upon receipt of the email. The challenge requires that you pay to stay for 7/12th night within 9 days, and you can keep your gold/diamond card status until March 31st, 224, and enjoy the membership privileges during the challenge.

2. High-end credit card gifts
For example, ICBC, China Merchants Bank, Minsheng and Ping An Centurion Platinum Cards give Hilton Gold Cards.
3. Hilton Diamond members will be given a gold card if they stay for 4 nights and a diamond card if they stay for 7 nights in a calendar year. Can Hilton members get extra points?
Yes.
According to the official information of Hilton, Hilton members can make up points.
Hilton International Hotel Group, a branch of Hilton Group, which is headquartered in the UK, has the right to use the Hilton trademark all over the world except the United States. What will happen if Hilton introduces members falsely?
False introduction of Hilton members will have some negative effects on the company, including:
1. Damage to reputation: If Hilton employees or partners falsely introduce members, it will damage the company's reputation and lead to the public losing trust in the company.
2. Violation of ethics: the act of falsely introducing members will violate the ethics of the industry, which will lead to the investigation and punishment of relevant regulatory authorities and have adverse effects on the company.
3. Impact on economic benefits: If there are too many false members, it will have a negative impact on the company's economic benefits, because these false members will not produce actual hotel reservations and consumption behaviors, and will cause a waste of company resources.
