It seems I have been deMaxed

[letsgobobby]

I got Maxed about 18 months ago following some resale deed

And now it no longer says Max when I log in. And HGV properties like Sedona or Embarcs no longer show up in the search bar.

Anyone else?

@iftravel had a recent post re this..

HGVC Resale booking into HVC resorts

I was de-maxed last Thursday but was re-maxed the next day.

Did you get to use your guest certificate?

 

[HuskerATL]

will be interesting to see if you get re-maxed like others have...

 

[iftravel]

I was deMaxed but I also got the priority bHC NYC booking window back. So heck whatever

say more?

I bought the District to have 90-100 days booking window into NYC bHC. I lost it when Maxed but now it’s back. What did you buy?

 

[letsgobobby]

I bought a Paradise and a second W57th resale deed at almost the same time so I never knew which Maxed me.

It’s from W57 which is a bHC. Now you should have the bHC booking window back for other NYC bHC properties.

I never looked, I prefer W57 because of the lounge access.

W57 doesn’t. Only the Quin, Central, Residences, and the District in DC have access to the reciprocal bHC window.

On the other hand, the Home Resort window closes at 60 days instead of 90 so owners have longer to book.

Same thing happened to me.

Just like @iftravel I had lost the extra 14 days reciprocal bHC window when I was Maxed - but it's back now that I've been deMaxed.

 

[GT75]

@Reddart, do you still have "back door max"?

 

[Reddart]

My app/webpage still says Max, and last I checked I still had a guest cert available, but trying now to look at availability on non HGVC “Max” properties shows no availability. Maybe I’ve been “Quietly” deMaxed.

Same thing happened to me.

Just like @iftravel I had lost the extra 15 days reciprocal bHC window when I was Maxed - but it's back now that I've been deMaxed.

you own another bHC besides W57th?

It’s from W57 which is a bHC. Now you should have the bHC booking window back for other NYC bHC properties.

As noted by @ljmii, W57 isn't in the reciprocal booking group. From the Club Rules:

Hilton Club Priority exchange is a reciprocal priority exchange window where owners at select
“Hilton Club” branded properties may exchange into each other’s property during a fifteen (15) day
reciprocal exchange window without competing with Members who do not own an interest at those
resorts. Hilton Club priority exchange reservations may only be made using ClubPoints. The time
period of The Hilton Club reciprocal priority window is subject to change or adjustment based on
user demand. After the Hilton Club Priority window ends, Members may still make a Hilton Club
priority reservation, subject to availability.

• A Hilton Club priority exchange window currently exists between The Residences, a
Hilton Club, The District, a Hilton Club, The Central at 5th, a Hilton Club and The Quin,
a Hilton Club beginning 104 days prior to check-out and ending 90 days prior to checkout.
One-night minimum booking required.

you own another bHC besides W57th?

Yes, at the District. We go to DC regularly and purchasing there gives us lounge access - which to me is a very valuable perk. And - for the record - I like the verb you created: deMaxed!

@conci9999 got deMaxed but then reMaxed recently. Are you still max or min?

I just checked. Looks like I’m still maxed.

 

[Reddart]

I’m still Maxed as well, and can see inventory on the HVC Max properties.

Were you ever deMaxed?

 

[Reddart]

Were you ever deMaxed?

I was about a month after getting maxed…then maxed for a few days, then deMaxed, then Maxed again! I haven’t been knowingly deMaxed since.

If mine is following your pattern (which has been), then I’m expecting a second max / deMax, followed by eternity.
