They cannot help with your account, they cannot make your Choice Benefit, and they cannot follow up on system/point issues on your behalf. Frankly, the Lurker team here is much better equipped to handle issues than the Ambassadors, in my experience.
They request Your24 for you. I've had a success with that,with one attempt, so the score is 1-0 in my favor. The hotel was legacy Marriott and I suspect I was their very first Your24 request, with my Ambassador apparently having to educate the hotel about the benefit (although the hotel did seem to have an airline contract that permitted pilots to check out very late, so they should have been accustomed to room blocking and housekeeping logistics associated with Your24).
