Not that it is any excuse, nobody should give you a wrong name or hang up on you, but you have to feel bad for the phone agents. It's a low paying job and there must be so much confusion and pressure right now.

My niece is in college and has a summer job as a phone agent for a different chain. On Sunday she and one of her friends who is also working there asked me about the merger. They are working for a different chain but people are calling them demanding answers. I gave them a very high level three minutes and they were very thankful. If in one week of working for a different hotel chain they were already frustrated by this one can only imagine how bad it must be for the phone agents at Marriott.
