maybe Marriott Concierge can review this promotional inequity and try to help me qualify.

I have just stayed at Marriott 3 times for 33 total days since October 1, 2008, but do not qualify for the Mega Bonus sicne I charged with Mastercard.
If you buy a gift card, have a payment put on the bill for the total minus 0.01, charged with the Mastercard, then settle your bill with the gift card (processed as a Visa), you'lll get the Megabonus. You could use a Marriott Gift Card, or buy a Prepaid Visa Card.
