Or, is the code detective work only about canceling a travel package and getting points refunded (45K for the cat 1-4 + difference in higher category costs)?
I fully intend to upgrade my cert to a cat 7 or even cat 8. I think Marriott is not allowing upgrades because this system is convoluted and confusing. There also don't seem to be "guard rails" so to speak based on what we're slowly learning - you could get exactly what you want on the first try or get royally screwed.

I'm trying to figure out the partial package table to be able to call in and "exchange" my 225k (nonsense) Tier 1-3 partial cert for a 225k Cat 7 cert (which I'm guessing is either going to be QP107 or QP07 depending on if the codes go to 3 digits or not).

If we can give the rep a booking code then the odds if this working go way up
