I was sitting on 730k Hilton points. I finally decided to splurge at the Waldrof Astoria Los Cabos. Even though the minimum points needed for a standard redemption were 120k per night i got the 5th night free. The cash rate per night would have been around $850 per night before taxes and fees! All in all the 5 nights in cash would have cost me $5200 but instead used 480k Hilton points! Amazing value!

@@AskSebby question sir: So I've had the free Hilton Honors card for a year, and I just got an upgrade offer on it for 100K points for $2K in spend. I was just thinking of applying for the surpass first to get the 130K point intro bonus for $2K in spend. I saw that I must apply for that intro bonus first. Can I take take advantage of both offers in the same day as long as I apply for that intro bonus first, or should I space the two out and wait until I at least receive the intro bonus card to accept the upgrade offer?

How far apart did you get the Surpass and the Aspire cards. Could one get the Surpass card and then in 90 days get the Aspire or should you get one of their charge cards in between to play it off and wait 8-12 months to get the Aspire card?

@@TheDivaIsIntheDetails I got the Aspire in August and Surpass in October. American Express isn't as sensitive to application momentum as other creditors (Chase); so long as you stay within their rules of 2 revolvers in 90 days. If your credit history can support the application - apply. FYI - I would use their pre-approval process to see what cards you are eligible for. Whatever is on the list - you are guaranteed to get.

I am diamond via the aspire card and I can tell you first hand that when you check in as a diamond member at Hilton, you get treated better than other customers, they basically kiss my ass and upgrade me and give me early check in and late check out, gifts, and bigger rooms. I am not an asshole to them or arrogant about being a diamond member, so that might help but the free breakfast is above what gold members get...gold are usually limited on the free parts of breakfast and diamond gets anything... it is great!

Tip - $100 Honors & Surpass Credit...in addition to the signup bonus. Login to your HH account and begin making a reservation. Prior to completing the reservation, you will see an ad to sign up for either the HH or Surpass card...with an offer of a $100 statement credit after your first purchase. And, the purchase does not need to be with Hilton. Of course, unfortunately, Sebby won't get a referral bonus in this case.

If I upgrade to the Aspire from the Surpass, I’ll have to pay the $450 annual fee as soon as I upgrade, right? Then, since I can’t downgrade in the first 12 months, does that mean I’ll be forced to pay another $450 in annual fees for the second year of holding the Aspire card before I’m allowed to downgrade without hurting my account?

Would it be fair to say we are getting the value of $10,153.20 for 160K Hilton Points? Read below and provide input. We ended up utilizing 160K Hilton Points at Hilton Tokyo Narita Airport during the 2020 Olympics for 10 nights for 20K points each night. Because of the 5th free night, we are only utilizing 16000 points per night. Not the most ideal location for the Olympics but everything else is astronomically priced! Looking at the prices just today, the Twin room at Hilton Tokyo Narita Airport between July 22nd 2020 and Aug 10th 2020 is going for 111,500 Japanese Yen ($1015.32 USD) with breakfast included.....Thoughts?

If you have any mid or high end hotel status e.g. Hilton Aspire card for diamond status, does the people working at the front desk of the hotel know if you have this status level because you have a certain credit card (compared to status based on spend/paid nights)?? Was wondering if some people don’t get upgrades even with status because hotel knows that you have it because of a CC and not because you necessarily stay at the hotel brand often. Does anyone know? Thanks.

Thanks for the continue great content on the entire travel credit card market! I have over 10 cards and not looking at putting spend right now toward any new sign-up bonus, FYI. I’m able to put $15k on the Hilton‘s passcard by end of this year, but is that a wise decision for just 1 free non weekend hotel night or should I put this on my CFU card for Chase UR points? Hilton is 6X points on gas station and groceries, so through gift cards this is attainable and that helps the points for Hilton , but I still think Chase UR points is the better ROI.
@LK_EBM
@LK_EBM Год назад
Do the math. Where will you (realistically) be using the free night at? For example, if you stay at a $700 hotel. $700 value for $15k spend = 4.6% return on spend. You're CFU gets 1.5 UR points. Will you realistically get ~3 CPP from UR, to beat out the Hilton?

In Year 2? You could upgrade one and downgrade the other one. The main draw of Hilton is running Aspire heavy setups (for many people).

Hey Sebastian Just got CSR and have the freedom unlimited but I am in the gray area (mid-20) prior to starting my career (med field). I am thinking about starting AmEx Hilton so later down the road I will have a lot of points built for possible honeymoon/vacation somewhere. What are your thoughts on this long-term plan? Apply for honors card Jan 2021 Apply for surpass after 6+ months and keep for a year Downgrading back to honors Eventually apply for aspire down the road once I’m ready for bigger travels/occasions? Thanks!

That's fine. I would generally still start with the Platinum due to how the 100k targeting works but I realize it's not ideal if you're only starting your career: www.asksebby.com/blog/roundup-100k-amex-platinum-offer-via-cardmatch-amex-centurion-lounge-restrictions-changes-to-asia-miles

For the triple play, how can you upgrade the surplus #2 in Feb 21 and get the upgrade offer one month after in March 21 you've upgraded from the Hilton? Don't upgrade offers appear after 12 months?

Hi Sebby, can you please let us know why I should get the Amex platinum card first before getting any of these Hilton cards? And for the Hilton cards, is it a good idea to apply for the Honors and Surpass cards on the same day, and then wait until 12 months, upgrade Honors card to Surpass, and close the other Surpass card?

It’s more difficult to get the elevated Plat bonus once you are an Amex customer. So Plat should be first Amex card if it makes sense for you.

If you apply for the Hilton card and surpass card in the same month, do you get hit on your credit score twice?

If you have 3 aspire cars, do you pay 3x 450$ annual fees?
@thecreditcardmd
@thecreditcardmd 2 года назад
Yes $450 X 3. So $1350 annually, but effectively $-150 if you consider the credits.. so in a way they pay you as long as you use it 😁

do you have a strategy video like this for chase cards?
@AskSebby
@AskSebby 3 года назад
Chase doesn't give upgrade bonuses, generally. No real play on that end.
@cosmicdrift8311
@cosmicdrift8311 3 года назад
Sebastian, it's been awhile since you posted the video. Would having the business Hilton card interfere with this strategy? I'm thinking of getting it first because of Chase's 5/24 and then later getting the personal ones. I also understand the business version is relatively easy to get - as business cards go anyway. Any info on that?

@Ask Sebby I'm in the process of doing your advanced play here. Aspire was my first card. Then the HH card. Last was Surpass. After the year, I downgraded my Aspire a couple months ago to HH. Just today, downgraded my Surpass to HH. Question, when would you expect me to get an upgrade offer? And, if I get one, do you see a problem with upgrading all 3 at the same time, even though the Aspire & Surpass are newly downgraded? Thanks for all you do. By the way, I have my wife on the same plan about 4 months behind me. 🙂

@@andrewjames2721 I had not received an upgrade offer, so I called Amex to see if there was one on my account. There was, so I upgraded the card, that I had originally downgraded to HH, to the Surpass for 100k points. I then called back on the other 2 HH cards and Amex would not upgrade those. So, it doesn't seem I'll get to completely follow in Sebby's footsteps.

Hi Sebby. Does the free weekend night stack with the 5th night free? For example I want to stay at the Conrad Maldives for 95k/night. If I use the free weekend and 5th night, would I be paying 95*3 = 285k or 380k for a 5 night stay?

No, it doesn't. The 5th night free needs to be booked with ALL points

I was denied for the Hilton card with a RSVP code sent to me via mail. They reported 763 and the reason for denial, “Balances on American Express cards is to high” yet I had like 108$ on one card.
