Definition of Stay
Hello Lucky,
I am a Marriott Platinum and I registered for the following promotion :
The problem is now I booked my 3-night consecutive stay as 3 separate booking numbers. I always do this because it’s easier if I want to cancel one of the days, I can do that easily without having to change the other 2 booking numbers. Now Marriott is telling me I am not eligible for the 1,500 points below because I have 3 separate booking/reservation numbers although it clearly says a stay is defined as consecutive nights spent at the same hotel, regardless of check-in/checkout activity on any points-eligible rate. I feel like the staff is not well trained to understand this and I have been spending so much time trying to get or should I say “beg” for points that I deserve! Do you know how I can handle this situation?

Thank you.

Hi Seansy, I feel your frustration but I’m not sure 1,500 Bonvoy points is worth the fight!
