"FedEx Freight American Freightways (954105683) is an IHG code for a FedEx freight division. The FedEx/IHG enforcement pattern applies across all FedEx business unit codes: IHG InterContinental properties request employee ID; IHG Holiday Inn Express properties essentially never do. FedEx's reported monitoring of hotel booking volume means anomalous usage could trigger company-side audit. FedEx employee IDs are standardized physical badges. Properties near FedEx facilities (Memphis TN, Indianapolis IN) are most verification-active."

"I had the same experience with the IBM corporate rate. When I went to IBM sites to install machines they always said stay at one of these hotels and tell them you need the IBM rate. Always worked and saved a lot of money and I always got full credit with the hotels frequent stay program."

"Yesteryear it wasnt so risky sinc ethe CX policy was Day of @ Check-in time, so as long as you got there before the CX time was past, then if carded all you had to say was OK CX the res then. That doesnt exist any longer as its now 24 hrs before if not earlier, so no ID they simply will charge the CC you used when you made the res , forget about Disputing it as the hotel will produce the res and their CX policy and that you used a code that you werent entitled to use"
