However, I'm struggling a bit with Hyatt's technology and I'm trying to establish if it's just bad luck or a known issue -- the website seems to ALWAYS be down, DSUs can only be applied on the phone, there seems to be no way to see all my reservations in one place . . .I travel enough so that when I have the time, I want to address and solve the hotel issue, whatever it may be. Is that an unrealistic expectation? Or have I just had bad timing these past few weeks? It's been enough to make me re-think my options and preferences going forward.
Yes and no. DSUs must be booked over the phone. Make sure u call the direct Diamond line for faster service. Otherwise no. The website has been completely out of wack since their "scheduled" downtime end of last year. There's a thread here on it but long story short, they need to fire all of their IT guys!
