By contrast, my husband can access his account with no additional code required.

It's very annoying and I am glad the OP brought it up.

The annoying part is surely that the IT isn't quite working properly (whether Marriott or your own cookie settings), not the actual existence of additional security.

Or is it now "who cares if I get hacked because they will refund my points?"
