I have a Marriott free night for up to 50k points expiring in November. What happens if I book something for next year and cancel my reservation after November? Do I get the points back and avoid the expiration?

No - I think you unfortunately lose the free night voucher. They don’t convert it into points and give the points to you.

You may not be able to use the certificate for a reservation that is after the expiration date.

Anyone had luck getting an extension to the expiration date in that case? I dont plan to go anywhere before November.

You cant use the reservation for future. You can call and ask for an extension but its always YMMV

You need to book before November and not cancel or you’ll lose. They won’t extend it any more either. They stopped like a year ago

Is this legal? My spouses company just decided to change their comp structure for account managers. It was base + comm, now it’s commission only but nothing changed, OT commission is the same, didn’t get more points, just took away the base pay and said work harder basically. So now they have to worker harder to get $50k they were already making. (Not a decision based on employee performance, they’ve been crushing it. I think the company is just trying to save money they overspent else where)
