"AT&T is among the companies with the best Marriott negotiated rates. In the US, I've never been asked to show corporate ID. In Asia and Europe, I've been asked for corporate ID every single time. Since some companies don't put their name on badges for security reasons, the business card route is often tried first and usually accepted."

"lol, my front desk managers *hated* any time I asked them to cover AYS. They’d go out to the desk and help no problem, but I always got some kind of attitude asking them to hop on the phone for my break. I worked at a ~650 room property and was regularly scheduled by myself for AYS second shift."

"Same- we stay at a very large Jw often just for a quick get away and have gotten to know a few of the staff. We’ve checked in numerous times and have been told there aren’t any upgrades - I’m Platinum. No worries, we’re just happy to be on vacation for a few days. Shortly after we’ve seen a specific front desk agent that is always friendly with us and she has upgraded us (yes, after we’ve checked in) at least three times…. And mentioned as she’s doing it, “idk why they didn’t upgrade you…. “ we never asked her since we were already checked in and we’re fine with the regular room. But certainly, a suite is a nice upgrade and very much enjoyed."
