You can fill out the form online. I certainly would: https://www1.nyc.gov/site/dca/consum...complaint.page

Who knows what will happen but I played this card in Virginia with a Westin and it was the only thing that got the property to refund me after double-charging me.
Thanks [MENTION=37927]platbrownguy[/MENTION], have filed a complaint.

And enough w/ the Bonvoy agents. You've been dealing directly w/ the RevMgmt guy - do you really think a generic cust svc agent is going to override the RevMgmt mgr? You're just putting Bonvoy c.s. in the middle at this point.

When I thought it was $150/$150 I figured you'd get the property to suck it up. $3 error not at all. $240/$14 isn't a slam dunk on your end or their end. But Rev Mgmt is playing hardball, so you have to decide to a) pay the amount they've said w/ their 15% discount; b) book somewhere else; c) contact the appropriate authorities & plead your case (link above), hoping it's resolved before your upcoming stay

BTW - unless I missed something, you have yet to name the property. Which one is it?

Cheers.
I've booked somewhere else in fact, with a complaint filed. RevMgmt is not offering anything lower than the 15% off offer. The property is Courtyard by Marriott, WTC.

And I found quite a good deal ($13x per night) for my dates somewhere else so will drop this if I'm not getting anywhere.
