You are giving away one of the most valuable products on the market in my opinion. I wouldn`t swap my HH card for anything.
Makes no sense ….
Assuming you don’t need the Gold status, you could use the Avios from Barclaycard for Nectar points, use the money you save on shopping to buy the equivalent number of Hilton points when a 100% bonus is running and you’d be in profit.
£1 spent on Hilton card = 2 Hilton points (value 0.75pish when bought in a 100% bonus promo)
£1 spent on Barc Avios = 1 Avios (value 0.8p AT WORST when used for Nectar)
How often does Hilton run the 100% bonus? Is it annually?
New to Head for Points?
