Hyatt Diamond Match

It’s Friday again. How is this possible? Is time accelerating?

Ok, here’s a good one…

Surprisingly, Hyatt just tweeted that they’re once again matching to Diamond status without having to go through qualifying stays. Take advantage of this one! I’m still a huge fan of Hyatt and their Diamond status. Especially after the Starwood-Marriott crapfest/disaster/nightmare/merger.

Tweet back to Hyatt or send an email to hyattsocialmedia@hyatt.com and/or goldpassport@hyatt.com. Just make sure to show proof of your current hotel status. You need one stay in the last year from another hotel brand. Your fancy new Hyatt Diamond status will last for over a year. Pretty damn good deal.

(I got a flood of emails yesterday and will respond with a reply or a post here as soon as possible. Thanks guys. Have a great weekend!)

Requests?

With a month’s worth of posts left in 2015, is there anything specific you’re interested in hearing from me? I sometimes feel that without comments enabled, I miss out on getting feedback from certain readers. That’s why I like to ask “for requests” usually once a year…and, well, it’s that time. Anything goes. Let me know what you want and I’ll do my best to give it to you. Thanks.

Hump Day Deals

They keep coming this week…

  • A couple days ago, I mentioned a bonus for buying American miles. There are also buying promos with Southwest, Starwood, and Hyatt.
  • Get up to 40,000 bonus Air Canada Aeroplan miles when converting points.
  • The Wyndham credit card is back up to 45,000 points. It goes back and forth between here and 30,000. Here is better.

Tuesday Triple

  • Slickdeals is way too excited about it, but Chase Sapphire is up to 50,000 points. Another 5,000 points for adding a user who makes a purchase in the first 3 months.
  • Also, a semi-exciting $150 bonus on the Chase Freedom card. 25 bucks for the additional user purchase. What I like better than the bonus is their 10% Amazon cashback promo.
  • I heard from the people at Plastiq again about their latest deal. Obviously, I’ve talked about them before. The latest email I received yesterday is below:
    “Hi Paul, Wanted to share that we’re launching a promo today!
    Get a 1.5% rate for all one-time, immediate MasterCard payments to any business! People can pay any bill or invoice to receive this rate – from rent, utilities to even babysitters. This promotion will expire on November 30, 2015 at 5 p.m. PT.
    People can sign up or log in here.”

Start Of Week Deals

  • A free 500 Hilton points for signing into their shopping mall. I value a Hilton point at…actually, I can’t think of a dollar amount that small. Maybe a rupee.
  • Speaking of Hilton, if you like booze and weak points, click here for 10,000 and a few bottles.
  • Emirates status matching isn’t the most common thing in the world, but it’s around for the rest of this month. If you have any status to match, it’s worth checking out.
  • The working 80,000-point link for Marriott is here. I feel like November has included way too much time talking about this card.
  • American’s Cyber Monday prices aren’t bad if you’re in the market to buy miles. As usual, I am not.
  • 25% bonus transferring points to Etihad. One of those not-for-everyone-but-a-few-people-will-like-it deals.
