Or you walk away, right? For example, lets say you reserve at $150. The room is guaranteed. You show. They question. They say the rate is 500. Can they charge you $150 if you decline the higher rate? (you DID show)
IMO most terms and conditions are silent on this issue ..
Interesting that you don't think you're going to be charged the cancellation fee...
You also don't seem to understand that each corporate receives reports of those who use their code. If they query your stay, Hyatt will investigate and they have your credit card details and contact information.
At the PH SYD using a large corporation's code that wasn't settled by account during the stay would arouse suspicion in itself. I do recall guest's paying RACK when it was discovered during their stay.
If you have no moral compass, ponder on that.
