Signing up for a credit card, and giving the points to someone else?
« on: March 11, 2010, 09:06:35 PM »
Is it possible to sign up for the Amex Hilton or Starwood card, and to enter the spg or Hilton number of a person that you want to give the points to as a gift?

Doubtful, but for SPG why not just transfer the points afterward?

You're right. I really meant Hilton HONORS. WHY SHOULDN'T IT WORK?
