Error: Our server is being stubborn, please try again
 

Is anybody getting "Our server is being stubborn, please try again" while trying to book on Marriott.com?
I get it on both my MR and SPG accounts (which I cannot combine yet).
The mobile app works but I can't do Cash+Points there.

I'm getting this error all morning on the desktop version when coming to the official Bonvoy website from a link on a cashback affiliate website:

Specifically it says:
"Our server is being stubborn. Please refresh this page or try again later."

Seems they don't like people who book through affliate links.

Or they forgot to feed the mice that runs on wheels that provide power to the servers.

All the time. I just want to book through Rakuten to get my cash back but the app is the only way I can book some days.

All the time. Marriott told me they don't have an IT Dept., so that explains it.

At first, I thought this was going to be a restaurant review.

I also use Rakuten (although I try to book on the days when it's 4% instead of the standard 1½%). It's happened to me two or three times but not more often than that.

Happens with way more frequency than it should.

It's not just when using a cash back website... I get that error often even when just searching from going to Marriott.com without any addons. Realistically, the only thing "stubborn" here is upper management refusing to fix their IT systems. From what I've heard it's a lack of $, and that info came from corporate.
