I booked a luxury hotel through the Visa Luxury Hotel collection, which should have VIP status, upgrades and some cash discounts on food and beverage. However, not only there is no VIP nor upgrades for my room, but I was treated as other customers and had to wait over 30 mins for the room to be available at 5 pm. (I arrived at 4 pm). I do not feel any "privilege status" during my stay. I tried to book a family trip using RBC rewards apps, but it says the dates I have chosen were unavailable. But I know rooms were available since I've tried to book through the hotel's official site. I then turned to the Infinite Privilege Concierge for help, after speaking to the representative over 30 mins to provide EVERY INFO, then the representative says she needs to transfer me to the RBC Reward hotline to better help my situation. After another 30 mins call again with the representative providing again EVERY INFO (AGAIN!), she said a fee will be charged if I make any booking over the phone. I explained my frustration and hung up at that point.
