Hilton is requiring all HHonors members to update their password by April 1, 2015. Now, if you do this by March 25, 2015, you will receive 1,000 Hilton points!
Many bloggers wrote about this opportunity last month and unfortunately if you changed your password then you will need to do it again to get the 1,000 bonus points since there was an error in the system last time around.
This is super easy to do and there is no reason not to claim your FREE points!
To change your password…
- Log into your HHonors account here
- In the Account Overview section, click the “Update Now” button
- In the Personal Information section, click “Change Password”
- Your password must be at least 8 characters, contain one uppercase letter, and one number (0-9) or one special character
This will also extend your Hilton account another 12 months to ensure your points do not expire. However, I’ve been pretty inactive on my Hilton account and they’ve never been taken from me. But technically, Hilton points expire every 12 months if there is no activity (earning or redeeming points).
Thanks to Miles to Memories for sharing this promotion!

Though I updated my password, then logged out, and logged in again, my Hilton Honors account wasn’t automatically credited 1000 points. Perhaps there is some delay in being credited the points once you change your password?
@Chris – I do not believe it happens right away, but let me verify that.
Hi there! Any updates on how this plays out? There’s nothing that indicated you get 1,000 bonus points. I updated my password. Maybe you can post an update? Otherwise, I’ll call. Thanks!

@barbara – I’m looking into how many days it takes and will report back
