"No specific FlyerTalk or Reddit threads document AIG code verification incidents. The code follows Marriott's general corporate rate policy. AIG is a large but relatively low-profile financial services firm; its ticker-style code is widely circulated but US properties rarely enforce. International properties (especially Asia and Europe) are more likely to ask. No documented denied-rate cases found specifically for AIG."

"GAP Inc's Marriott code GAP is listed in corporate code databases. No verification incidents documented in FlyerTalk or Reddit discussions. Clothing retail corporate codes at Marriott receive minimal attention from front desk staff — retail employee IDs are not standardized enough to be reliably verified. US domestic properties rarely verify retail-sector codes."

"I have never been asked (yet) at Marriott but usually I show up at the desk by handing over ID/credit card. Don't read this as me endorsing going crazy using the codes that you aren't supposed to use! Interesting about the client reports going back daily."
