"Prudential Financial's Marriott code PRU is a financial services code. Finance codes in major business centers (NYC, Newark NJ where Prudential is HQ'd) face more scrutiny. FlyerTalk's finance sector enforcement thread: "NYC-area full-service Marriotts — the W, the Westin, the Marquis — have all been reported in individual accounts as asking for corporate ID." Prudential's massive Newark/NYC presence means front desk staff are familiar with Prudential employee badges. No PRU-specific denial documented; pattern-based Medium risk."

"I work as a consultant and frequently ask for and use my client's rates (at their insistence, since I will be billing them back). I have been asked for ID maybe one time in 15 since February, when it was announced in this forum that rates would be ID'ed."

"I wouldn’t mind that at all. Credit Card companies have super weak security and it’s very easy to defraud them - they just pay our money back, and counts that as losses so we’ll sure up about it and keep using the cards What I mind is that the mobile check-in is basically a lie. Marriott is deceiving me. Random hypothetical people that might or might not stole my credit card are not. Hilton works just fine btw"
