Status Match Hilton HHonors Diamond to Sixt Platinum

Did you know that Sixt SE (more commonly known as Sixt), a European multi-national car rental company that operates over 100 different countries has a loyalty program that you should take advantage of - even if it is the first time you are renting! Since I will be traveling out of Singapore soon, I was curious to see what I could get with my hotel statuses and it turns out that Sixt is matching Hilton HHonors Diamond (amongst various other top-tier hotel loyalty program status) to the Platinum Sixt Card.

The Platinum Sixt Card offers the following tangible benefits (there are other benefits that do not appeal to me as immediately as these below):

• Up to 15%* discount on Sixt rent a car and Sixt rent a truck.
• Up to 20%* discount on Sixt limousine service in Germany, Austria, Switzerland and France. Up to 10%* in all other countries.
• Free upgrade to the next car group and a double upgrade in U.S. locations.**

Requesting for a Status Match

There are various ways to request for a status match to the Platinum Sixt Card. You may even provide them with a screenshot of your account and your account number during registration but I have had some issues with that. What I did in the end was to sign-up for an account and then email them separately with the same details for a status match that took less than 24 hours to process!

I will be traveling to Melbourne soon and I will be using them for a car rental - will report back when I return for my trip to see if the benefits (such as upgrades) were honoured.
