  1. Hi,
    They are asking the complete card no, is it safe?
    Can they no suffice with the first/last four digits?

  2. Hi Ajay

    I follow your informative posts religiously. I have developed interest in hotel rewards membership and plan to register for a couple of them. Which rewards programs would you recommend for starters. I don’t travel every month but its kind of linked with school holidays. So I would prefer chains that have wide networks and rewards are decent even for limited travelling.
    I have been considering
    Hilton
    Marriott
    IHG
    Radisson

    Please suggest which one of these is good or if you recommend any other

    • @Rajesh, I am a member of all 4 as you would guess. Marriott is my primary one due to reach. Hilton as a good reach too but award charts are variable unfortunately

  3. Yes I have applied for the FastTrack Hilton Honors. Now will have complete the stays as per the conditions.
