WHY not just let your husband have the credit. It seems that you wish to be rewarded for his firms willingness to allow him to stay at Hyatts.
Now if they denied him the credit .. that would be different
He's not Diamond and has no loyalty to them. FFN stays on his account would be useless when I need them to requalify.
And my point is the Hilton, Marriott, and Starwood do give credit regardless of who pays. It shouldn't matter who pays as long as the Diamond member is in the room. It's not like it was a PS. It was a legitimate stay with him paying.
And FYI on his firm's "willingness" to let him stay there, it was the Hyatt ABQ on a weekend. The rate was the same there as it was at the Hampton and Fairfield. We CHOSE Hyatt because of FFN's and my need to requalify. And yet Hyatt didn't seem to appreciate the loyalty choice. If this were any other hotel chain, no questions would have been asked whatsoever. If it's in their rules, they tend to overlook it as an appreciation for the stay. Again, we've never had this problem with Marriott, Hilton, Starwood, or even Holiday Inn. We've used his status at these brands on my business, and nothing was said when I paid. Why does Hyatt try to put themselves so much above these others with such ridiculous rules?
