I recently applied for a Hilton Debit Card Plus which duly arrived. I used it this week for a booking at a Double Tree hotel in the UK. All worked as expected except it didn’t debit my bank account straightaway but rather a payment will be taken by Direct Debit next week.

Is this how it is supposed to work? I have a Curve debit card that debits my bank account within seconds of making the payment. Can this be done with the Hilton card?

I think it’s because the Hilton card uses the direct debit system. I have not had it very long but it seems to work faster during the week than weekend. For me it’s not really a problem as my bank account tells me about upcoming direct debits, so there’s no opportunity to forget.
I too have Curve, at least Hilton hasn’t double charged me yet 8)
