"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 get asked every single time on Government Rates/Per Diem Rates. (Multiple properties per month) I just know to keep my ID right there. Every once in a while they will try to photo copy it and then have to explain that isn’t allowed, otherwise I have no issues with it being validated."

"I have a close friend who is a GM at a Marriott property in a fairly large US city (top 25 metro population). Their opinion is basically, "Hey, it's business. I'm not turning away a paying guest if they don't have the right ID." In this person's younger days as a front desk agent, they enjoyed catching people trying to use a corporate rate that the guest was not entitled to. As they became higher up and saw the books, occupancy rates, etc... Corp ID's became far less important than filling rooms."
