Hi all - I found this link thanks to a link on Marriott's Elite Member forum. I have a well known travel reporter who is willing to dig in and do an independant review of Marriott's changes - but he needs someone who will go on record with him and make statements. If anyone is interested and agrees that Marriott has been less than honest with their “enhancements”, please email [email protected] - I'd like to put you in touch. Also, for those of you who are not able to access the elite website, I've posted some response from Marriott and a recap of some misleading issues at: http://sites.google.com/site/makemarriottlisten/Home - Please visit and send any comments. It's nowhere near as well organized as flyertalk, but it helps spread a bit of truth about Marriott's intentions and treatment of customers. I'm mostly focused on the honesty behind the changes vs. Marriott's statements that these are not financial. Thanks for your help & standing up for members!
