I am a Platinum member with Hilton and Centurion with AMEX.

There was a promotion to transfer points and get 50% bonus.

I did not receive the promised bonus points and Hilton said it is not their problem. AMEX Centurion said it is Hilton's problem.

NOT WORTH THE TIME TALKING TO THEM. JUST GO ROUND AND ROUND .. so a warning to anyone who is considering transferring their points STAY AWAY.. Many other hotels give better service to their basic members . Seems that being a Platinum member means nothing when they (hilton) does not honour its promotions.

I thought Hilton didn't have a Platinum level with the equivalent being Diamond?

The responsibility of ensuring you receive the points should reside with the company that sent you the offer. When you accepted the offer did you receive any sort of confirmation ?

I did transfer last month when the Amex Promotion said 50% bonus, no bonus at all.

Hilton has Gold and Diamond, no platinum. Your transfer history on Amex should say where you transferred. Did you get the regular points and not the bonus or none at all? May be you did not read the T&C’s properly. May be the system has a flaw.

You could ask for an explanation with hilton if you have the promotional email.
