Don't call to use it, book it all online- you should be able to use the cert online as well. Have your dad call to add the name.
How do you book with a cert online? I tried a while ago and could never figure it out.

I f you book one night with the proper category with points it should ask if you want to use points or if you want to use your existing cert.

You can book a room in another persons name with points but certs are supposed to be only for the persons name listed on the cert.

As stated above, it is 99.99% likely they won't give a hoot, and also won't be able to tell the difference between the kind of cert you used.
