I just received my Lyft Pass Credit and it's only $250.00. It's $100.00 less than I should receive. Anyone else get the incorrect amount loaded on you Lyft App?
 
Centrum. Only received $250.

Got Centum in 2024 after using $200 of my $250. They sent me a new $350 credit after getting Centum and wiped the remaining $50.

2025 they sent me $250. I was waiting to use some of it before calling to see if I could replicate what happened to get extra credits but I ended up just taking trains/subway most of the time for NYC because it was faster due to traffic/construction at JFK. So I never called to get it fixed.
 
Whilst I was writing a follow up to this issue, Hilton rescinded my $250 credit and sent a new credit of $350. Still wondering if it’s just a ME problem, or do they do this with every Centum+
 
I believe they hosed up a lot of the Lyft credits. They set up ours for Premier+ without including the boundaries, so I was able to use it for a Lyft from down in the Village to the Quin this evening rather than being limited to using it from an airport. Took me a while to figure out why the ride was free....

Seems silly that they limit where you can use it to or from. Seems almost like an Amex coupon book play.

Agree, but I think that goes back to why the Lyft credit is a perk in the first place. There used to be an Elite Premier perk that provided car service from the airport to the HGV property every time you stayed. I think they decided that was too expensive, and to cut costs they replaced it with a Lyft credit, but put in the geo limits so their PR could spin it to make us think it is the same benefit.

Lyft credit worked again coming back from the lower East side to the Quin last night. I'm kind of liking the no geo limits thing. Maybe they just can't set it up that way anymore. Anyone else notice this?
 
Just used 2026 $250 EP Lyft Credit from DCA to HC The District. I’ll let you know if there are geo limits later. Wiped from that red eye.
 
Where do you go to enroll in these benefits?

The WHOLE amount?

I think they like picking on you @h2oflyboy

Thank you for the endorsement!

… I know I do!!!

Again, thank you for your support!

This is an automatically added once you share your Lyft information with HGV. Albeit the wrong amount could be given.

Where in the convoluted HGVMax portal to do I find this so called portal to share?
I am getting HH Points on regular Lyft rides.
 
How are you all getting to Centum by buying resale contracts? The prices of buying direct from Hilton are outrageous.

Agreed. As HGVC cardboard, I don't have to worry about how much Lyft credit I'm getting :)

Cheers.

Another reason I got banned from the sales floor. I laughed at them when I went through and added up the monetary value of all of the centum benefits and said I would have to live to 546 years before I would break even over buying resale.
 
I am not Centum but did a deed buy back of a resale contract at Maui and got 2 new deeds that made me Premier+

With the geo limits, it allows you to travel between any two locations, including between two HGV locations (doesn't have to include an airport). Is there a HGV location near the lower East side where you were? With all the new properties from the integration with Diamond and Bluegreen, I'm not sure.

It was never all of them but instead a list of resorts. There are none in the lower East side and it isn’t near enough to any. Also, the geo limits don’t show up in the Lyft app for me like they did last year.

Well, I had never found a resort where it didn't work, but I've only used it in a few locations. I'm not in Max so I don't know of all the additional resorts, so I was just checking. I'll be in NYC in March, so I guess I'll see if the geo limits are working then.

There’s a spot in the Lyft app for the credit under payments. When you go to that, it has an entry that reads “Your pass will automatically apply if your ride meets the criteria listed here.” Last year there were geographical constraints provided that covered the airports and resorts on a map. This year there’s nothing, so it applies to all my rides. Not sure if it’s set up the same for others.

I believe go to HGV website; Elite--> elite offers---> lyft pass; enroll; get email & all set...
May be slightly different for you as Max but presume similar..
TY!
