"GE (alt) Hilton code 0072799100 is a secondary GE code. The same enforcement pattern applies as the primary GE Hilton code: approximately 20% verification rate overall, higher in UK/European properties post-2022. FlyerTalk noted GE has company policy against using corporate rates for leisure travel and has disciplined employees for this violation. Secondary GE codes circulate less widely than the primary code, potentially reducing audit flag probability at some properties."

"I have used heavily discounted corporate rates for many years all over London, and have not yet been asked for ID. If I was, all I could do would be to send an email from my work account which at least is clearly from the associated company."

"My point is only that this does happen and it can be problematic for those that work for a company that has great negotiated rates and the provider requires identification."
