Seems like a huge bait and switch. I contacted Orbitz, but no luck. I actually like Orbucks to spend at non affiliated hotels when I’m in countries without a brand I like. Anyone else experienced this Orbitz trick? There doesn’t seem to be an opt-in button anymore to earning and I was definitely logged in. Thanks!
I had that happen to me as well and just stopped booking with them unless I have a large hotel coupon.
