I was in the process of booking a hotel reservation for a vacation long overdue for my family and I with over 60,000 points saved in my Marriott rewards account, only to learn my accrued points are gone--my account shows ZERO! I have stayed in Marriott hotels every year, have booked work meetings on their properties and confirm my rewards number is noted upon check-in every time. I contacted their customer care and was told basically, too bad you didn't receive the email that explained reward statements are no longer sent! Too bad you didn't know your rewards points are going to show zero despite all your stays at different Marriott properties every year! Too bad you have to escalate your call to 3 different representatives and all sound blame the customer for complaining about the poor communication of the highly advertised Marriott Bonvoy rewards program...clearly Marriott has gone down hill in customer service and no longer cares about keeping loyal customers. Icing on the cake is their Supervisor in Elite Services, Fiona, was horribly unprofessional, arrogant and never once apologized for being on the phone over 25 minutes prior to being connected to her, waiting for statements that never arrived, and the points taken away without any notification! A complete reflection on the serious deterioration of Marriott's "Elite" customer service!
