I think this thread is definitely useful for (a) those properties that refuse to accept the certs for any AAA or the standard Costco rate for either version of the certs (original or revised) and (b) those properties that refuse to accept the certs for any corporate rate even for original version of the certs.
Also, I think there is a a reasonable argument to be made that corporate rates should work with even the revised version of the certs on the rationale that corporate rate isn't the same as "negotiated volume rates" because those rates usually are NOT "special rates that have been previously negotiated and agreed to in writing by a business, individual, organization or association in exchange for a "volume" or block of rooms," such as for convention rates, etc.
Some Hyatt locations still accept the certs. (either version) for corporate rates, so it would be nice to know which ones do.
