    ask sebby can you please make a video about the new stash invest stock back debit card? I find it to be very compelling for when I don’t want to use my credit card I can move money into it and supposedly they give cash back as stock and funds – wondering your thoughts

    Does the stays have to be booked during the 90 days period, after Hilton approves me?

    As someone who just got into coding, most people don't recognize "!=" as "not equal". You're probably better off using "<>".

    Would it count as multiple stays if you book a stay for 2 nights and then a separate stay for the next two nights and so on

    I never have been upgraded while staying at a Marriott with Gold Elite status. Just stayed for two nights in Atlantic City NJ and got nothing even with 22 stays this year with this brand.

    hotels in Asia are way better than anywhere else regardless of status status or brand.

    Walking from Hotel to hotel is a great idea ! I do it all the time in Hawaii Trying different hotels earning hotel points. Finding the best hotels for a longer stay. Used your Youtube Channel to earn Marriott rewards for 2 free nights in Manila Manila Marriott a top rated hotel THANKS!

    5:54 easiest way to get Hilton status!! But I get why you made this video. I'll just be getting the Hilton Aspire after I'm done with Chase! Thanks Sebby!!
    Also I think Hilton is trying to snipe away at Marriott Bonvoy membership given all the changes and social media backlash over it!!

    This video just illustrates how amazing a perk Diamond status is with the Aspire card. The Bonvoy Brilliant should give Platinum status with 25K spend or something along those lines.

    Looking to do this challenge to match with IHG Platinum status. If I book a Hilton hotel via chase portal using my points, will it count as a stay towards this match challenge?

    All my Hilton’s points were stolen by hackers and bought items on amazon should do a video because Hilton isn’t saying anything and it wasn’t just me

    I already have AMEX Plat. I’m enrolled in both the Marriot Gold and Hilton Gold through this card. Can I use the Marriot Gold to status match to Hilton Diamond? I’m confused on how this will benefit someone with an AMEX Plat.

    Hey. I have a Chase question. I applied for the Freedom card, and was told to wait up to 30 days. I later called the reconsideration line, and then was told I’d receive a letter in two weeks. When I double checked via the application status line, I was told I would receive a letter in 7-10 days. What would this mean?

    Hey Seppy, I already hold an Amex Plat. and I'm looking to get matched for M life rewards by doing getting status match with Wyndham. In order to keep the new status match with M life rewards I have to do 8 stays (not 8 nights) with Wyndham or can I do with Hilton?

    I know someone who went down every morning, checked out and checked back in just to get multiple stays in the same stay. I guess it depends on who is at the counter and if they've had their coffee yet.

    Sebby hope you are able to upgrade the ascend, I want to do that straategy as well if it works to have two aspire cards. Used the weekend night at the Hilton all inclusive in Playa del carmen which is around $500 a night and also used the resort credit in the same stay. That paid for the card's annual fee.
