I notice sellers on eBay offering to upgrade you to Diamond. Has anyone tried this? It seems quite risky. One seller says they will create a new Diamond account for you then you can combine it with your existing account. I assume this is how the other sellers do it well Any thoughts?

I agree but some people are trying it. I notice the cheapest seller has 4 sales in the last 24 hours and some positive feedback for it.

Four of his own accounts perhaps? How much are they asking? I'm trying to understand how they can "create a new diamond account" for you. Seems like to do that, it would likely be a Hilton insider and I'm reasonably sure it'd be against HH policy! Pay the cash, lose the account, sounds likely to me. Remember that OnQ is rumoured to be an all singing, all dancing program that can readily detect cons. Whether it actually can or can't is unknown, but I'd consider it a risky trial.

Here is the cheapest by a fair way: Hilton Hhonors Diamond Status Account Free Room Upgrades Service | eBay

The other two are in Canada and Hong Kong. I think it is the HK one that says you can combine current account with the new diamond account.

I am not game to try this. I usually fall just short of diamond every year.

How much is it? Ebay is blocked where I currently am.

$40 US. Also listings for $60, $70 and $100.

One seller has 127 transactions for upgrading people to Gold and Diamond.

Some in the comments here have had their accounts downgraded (thread is 2 years old):

Reader Question: Buying Hilton HHonors Gold Status From eBay? | LoyaltyLobby

I am surprised that Hilton hasn't prevented these listings from being on ebay.

I guess it falls in the category of caveat emptor!

I've always been very curious about OnQ and what the hotels can potentially see about me when checking in..Would be interesting to see what've dug up on us all, and whether every little complaint made etc is stored, I'm sure it is.
