Megbonus certificate use
Has anyone else tried to use their summer Megabonus certs yet? I have been waiting for them to reach my account so we could stay at Portsmouth Marriott in the UK. I booked three nights on points a while back and am just short of the required points. Mr HP has changed his plans and we now only want two nights (to add on to a weekend stay of three nights), but we can't book using the certs as they work in the same way as points and there is no availability for the two nights! Bizarrely one can still book for 3 nights which covers the same period as the two.
I am exasperated at the moment as we have been attempting to book a week at various hotels for our autumn break and keep coming up against a brick wall. We are Plats thruough leisure stays and we can't afford some of the astronomical weekday rates, so we have no option to pay for the nights, but we have the leave booked and we have three nights booked for the weekend on the 20% off promotion.
I have never had such difficulty trying to book a week away!!!
