"A Fishbowl user warned about Amway-style codes: "No, because you don't want to risk them asking for employee ID and then charge you full price." Amway's business model involves distributors/IBOs (Independent Business Owners) who are technically not employees. This creates structural ambiguity: even legitimate Amway-affiliated users may struggle to produce a traditional employee ID at check-in."

"I swear the front desk employees are trained to resist and encouraged to lie. They try to save the rooms for members with higher status or complainers. I've booked King rooms and they'll assign me a double or a queen. The first rep will tell me they're fully booked and there's nothing they can do. But once transferred to a manager, King rooms magically appear!"

"I have been asked to show some proof couple of times. I normally show my corp id but credit card with employers name on it has worked, too. As would probably just showing my laptop with employer e-mail account or whatever. My impression has been they are happy with just about anything that proves I'm working for the company whose rate I use and why wouldn't they."
