Looks like I'll likely just need to wait on the new one for a couple of days before getting it re-priced appropriately.
I did the same re applying a DSU right before the lock. I don't think it was applied correctly, don't think it was agent error either. Will call in the morning to see what's up. Stay is Christmas Eve so would like it to get settled asap.

I was able to login and did a instant UR->hyatt transfer this morning (PST), and it worked fine. I was also be able to call in and made a C+P booking + DSU upgrade and received the confirmation email with the suite. But tried again this afternoon and now the red letters :}

While speaking to an agent just now (for canceling a reservation...which could not be done online)....he said that everything came back up earlier today. But then, so many users jumped on the site all at once..and the system crashed.

The agents systems are now up and running (according to this one agent) but the customer facing system is currently down after coming back up briefly.

Usually when a company make a ridiculous notice of four days downtime during the business week, they're just covering their arse for the worst case scenario. But in Hyatt's case, it looks like that was a stretch goal.
I had the same interaction with HytattConceirge twitter but they were able to check award availability and process points+cash booking for me.

I wish Hyatt would outsource their hotel booking to Hilton.

I was understanding of this maintenance only because Hyatt informed us a couple of weeks in advance ... but now it's overdue and have become irritating as I have reservations I need to modify and cannot.

It is 11:34 est and I'm getting the system under maintenance. Not a major issue to me however I can certainly see how some might be a bit upset. Good luck to all.

Yes - this is really frustrating! With such a well publicized system outage, one would think they would be more organized and start back up on time.

I think it's safe to assume things have not gone as planned and that there are some pretty unhappy folks in Hyatt management right now.

At least Jeff Zidell is showing a proper sense of urgency, tweeting about the best Ad Campaign of 2015.

Still down, and only a few islands in the world where it's not yet the 20th...

Able to login with the mobile site (seeing one stay and four nights less than I had before in my account and two other stays I had still pending to post, missing also a confirmed reservation I had for next year)
The mobile app and full site are still down(!)
This is messy I'm starting to fear there is going to be plenty of adjustments to make. I've never seen anything like this. I work on the IT sector this seems unheard of to me, how can they announce a full 3 day blackout then extend another day without notice, have parts of the system inconsistently up and down , presumedly incomplete restore and we will see what other surprises we will find... This isn't normal , good luck with the "retrospectives", tons of margin for improvement Hyatt.
