Outrageous, and there is NO justification for this. Now I don't feel even slightly bad for my cash workaround described in my post several posts back. I have spent over 2000 nights at Marriotts around the world, and am closing on 3,000,000 points. I don't steal from Marriott properties as regards incidentals and simply won't have these properties jacking around with my money in the name of authorizing some of the holds that have been described here. If the front desk wants to fight with me a checkin, so be it.
