Literally any other company's call center is better these days. I mean, the Delta Diamond line is usually pretty good in general, but I get actively excited about having a reason to call them now, especially if I happen to have needed to call Marriott recently beforehand.

You could speculate that Marriott had outsourced their support to some low-cost provider or something, but honestly that doesn't even make sense given that most third-party providers would still have more concern about the quality of service being offered (for fear of losing the contract with Marriott) than Marriott seems to be right now.
