I thought I saw something in concur that said if I stay 2 times at a Hilton I would get gold. Is that a thing? I called Amex and they had no idea what I was talking about

Why would you call Amex? If it does exist it's likely an agreement between Hilton and your company. Does your company have somewhere where you can submit a request around this?

But Amex handles our travel. Why wouldn’t they know about it?

Amex handles your bookings but doesn't give a ish about whatever rewards programs are available to you (why would they). Why didn't you call Hilton, the one offering the reward?

C1, ever hear the proverb about not throwing stones if you live in a glass house? 😆

How can you track the fast track United mileage program?

I signed up for fast track in October and it said I have 120 days to use the fast track. On my mileage profile it says that I need to hit X miles etc to get gold status by the end of this year.

Are these two things separate and where can I see the fast track progress?

Thanks in advance :)
