3. THE CHAT

- Rep - Reasons to keep: Marriott Bonvoy program flexibility during pandemic
- Me – Rebuttal: “I’m sorry, but that doesn’t work for me. Those updates are all related to the Marriott Bonvoy program itself, not the card.”

The next year of card membership is looking good with this offer, the annual $300 Marriott Bonvoy credit, and the Marriott Free Night Award certificate valid for a night up to 50,000 points :D
As always, if you have a credit card with an annual fee that you don’t think is giving you enough value, consider asking for a retention offer before cancelling or downgrading. You never know what kind of offer might be available!
