The property probably has to pay something for the bookings that are coming through the chain website, or maybe they cheat when it comes to the franchise fees etc. Who knows, but totally inappropriate behavior from the property. Either you belong to the chain and fulfill with the requirements, or you reflag the property and go independent.
