I have a category 8 certificate attached to a reservation next week. I need to cancel the reservation but keep the certificate (as a floater cert) for a future stay. I spent almost 2 hours on the phone with Marriott this morning, and they told me that if I canceled the reservation the cert would convert to 135K points, which is ridiculous. I even talked to a supervisor, but had no luck with keeping the certificate if I cancel. I'm planning to call back later this week when I have a couple of hours to spare, but any advise would be appreciated.
After having a CSR cancel a certificate when all I wanted to do was change the date on the reservation it was attached to, I detached a certificate before cancelling the next time. Although I have no idea what will work now, asking to detach the certificate while insisting that you don't want to cancel either the reservation or the certificate MIGHT work.
