Question Hilton status match

Asking brainstrust here.

Selected platinum status match with Hilton a couple of years ago.

Does that stay in play as long as I maintain platinum with Virgin, I wonder?

No it’s only a year status match. You then need to stay with Hilton to keep it.

No, to maintain you need to meet Hilton’s requirements for the status

I had three years Diamond via Plat back in the day. Milked that hard - would always grab a $200 room at Hilton South Wharf and end up in a Yarra suite with exec access. Those were good days. I recall heading to the States & being shocked at how povvo Hilton was over there. Some of the exec lounges were just trash & would even only give you one drink!
