Recall that I recommend calling if you can’t book what you really want online. I recently called a Hilton rep when I was booking a stay in Jacksonville for Rob and the boys to see the Broncos play there.
After speaking with the rep about this Jacksonville stay, she offered me 500 Hilton Honors points should I remain on the phone and listen to a pitch for a discounted 3 night Hilton getaway.
I listened. It took about 10 minutes. I now await this easy 500 Hilton HHonors points to be deposited into my account. It turns out this is another benefit of making the call—you can maybe score some extra points.
