Two questions:
1. Is prepaid rate at THC counted as stay credit in Marriott?
2. What format of $100 credit would be issued? Would that reflect anywhere in writing? I'm counting that $100 otherwise the rebooking would not make any sense. It is a Four Point, so I'm not seeing anything fancy being provided as "experience".
3. The term said “Bookings must be made using an eligible Card and must be paid using that Card, or another American Express®Card, in the eligible Card Member's name”， Does it work if I book with the amex gold and pay with Marriot Brilliant? Or the charge needs to be on eligible card (Amex Gold)
Thanks a lot.
As to #3, I just asked that question yesterday and the rep was adamant that you have to pay with the eligible card (in your case, the Gold, but I was asking about the Plat). If that is the case, it is very poorly written and makes no sense to me. Her explanation was that this language came into play when an authorized user made the booking but paid with the account holder's card. I think she is wrong, but would love to hear from someone who has done it.
