I'm really annoyed about properties who are willing to charge for a late checkout post 4 pm where initially a Your24 request was initiated and rejected.

So basically the room is available, but not for Your24 benefit, just for a charge. This is silly really. The Your24 benefit will never work if it is not enforced Once you leave it for the property to decide, the benefit is unreliable. This year I have came to realize that Ambassador level is not worth the extra 25 nights from Titanium.
