I would want the points for personal travel in your case) -- you may need to take it up with your company (as others have said).
If you company pays for your stays at all the major chains -- might be out of luck. Otherwise -- get yourself a Marriott Visa and go crazy!
That is what I was expecting from Marriott was for them to explain to me why I don't get the nights credit. Don't worry the pre-paid hotels are only in a certain area for my company and that just happened to be the area I spent a ton of time this year. Next year I will be global and paying using my Corporate Card so I can get points.
