How can they think they're suspicious if they have a balance issued by Hyatt on them? It makes no sense, really. Perhaps it would've helped to call Gold Passport at checkout desk and let them verify to the staff that it was a legit gift card. That's what I'd have done, I think, because I've never had an issue using these anywhere. And I use gift cards exclusively for stays in US, Canada and Caribbean.
