Hyatt’s Disappointing Fourth Quarter Promotion

September 1, 2010 - Rick

This was leaked on one of their hotels Facebook pages but has been confirmed as true. Everyone was counting on another FFN promo, but this is it for the fourth quarter:

COMING SOON!!! – Hyatt Gold Passport proudly introduces, “The Great 10K” promotion, which will run Sept. 15 thru Dec. 15, 2010. Members can earn 10,000 Hyatt Gold Passport bonus points after every 5 eligible nights. The number of bonus points a member can earn is UNLIMITED & bonus points DO NOT EXPIRE! http://goldpassport….hyatt.com/gp/en/offers/index.jsp

Oh well. I guess we won;t be staying a the Kauai Grand Hyatt this winter. Maybe next year.

I know that this is small potatoes compared to the US Air deal, but delta is offering 35 points per dollar at Pet Care RX, 5000 point for a sign up of an identity protection service and 25000 Delta Miles for a 5 night stay in Hawaii at a Starwood property. I think I'll be loading up on joint supplements and flea meds for my 3 pets!

According to T&C, you have to earn some dividend miles to qualify for each hit.
What I understand is that you can't sign up for subscription and cancel during trial period eg. Netflix, Lifelock, etc.
Can we cancel before the second billing period though? Pay $8.99/mo for the first month at Netfix then cancel??
For magazines for miles, I thought that's where you redeem your miles not earning. If it's true, you earn 1 hit for redeeming miles for magazines. eg. 400 miles for coastal living (10 issues)
Please please post any other ideas to earn miles in inexpensive ways.

@ KIM. Thanks. Do you know on the Starwood code if you can do the cash and points via starwood and still use the Delta promo code and get the night cheap and get the Delta points as well? Thanks!

M: I have had success with Netflix and canceling after the 1st month with both UA and AA. That leads me to belive it would work for this as well

@KB, thank you so much!
I have started a few activity for the first day.
I have a question about some free memberships.
I signed up for e-miles using dividend account number. Does it earn a hit or not yet? I understand that the minimum miles to transfer to us airways account is 500 e-miles. I earned free 290 for signing up and answering several questions. Do I need to earn at least 500 e-miles and transfer to dividend miles in order to earn a hit??
I'll email the customer service and post again if they respond.
