I asked at checkout if they could see my base rate for points posting, and they said they couldn't and to not expect points on the base rate. My assumption is that this got escalated (not by me) and someone at the property intervened manually on my behalf due to the quick turn-around.
Overall, I consider this to be a win!
I don't think if this is a win. If you had not paid a prepaid rate, you would've gotten the points on the actual base rate. So by using the prepaid option, you lost 100 x (10+elite bonus) points.
