I have 50 points for 2023 year that I have no use for if someone wants them. I'm new to the oints system so I may need some pointers on how to actually transfer those points.

Along those lines, our friends are willing to transfer 150 2024 points to us, what needs to be done? One agent said we need to be on the phone simultaneously with the agent which will be tough with time zones, busy schedules, and Marriott always having to return our call due to long call lines.

To transfer points, only the owner of the points being transferred out needs to call MVC. They would need your owner number to complete the transfer.

Thanks for the quick reply,
Is our owner number the customer ID (for some reason I have two, one says primary). Does it matter which one?

I'll take your leftover 2023 points.

I would use the primary owner number, but it probably doesn't matter.

FYI, this is the thread that spurred the new sticky on the Marriott forum (FREE USAGE ...)

Thanks, @ffxjack!
