I can understand a hotel wanting to enforce the terms that I seem to have agreed to. I can't understand the DD not being allowed to call on my behalf. Has anyne else heard of this new policy?

I was able to call the hotel directly, by the way, and they were happy to cancel my extra reservation.


Strange policy? I spoke with the European HHonors service last Saturday about a reservation for today, Monday. The reservation was made by the US diamond service. The European HHonors service canceled/called the hotel without any issue
