May be they didnt reserve it, but inturn did a full booking. In that case the customer must have provided billing address and cvv. I did one reservation and didnt show up, upon calling they said I wont be charged. I know a friend who made 2 reservations
My friend has booked the hotel and it hasn't been charged in over 5 days even though he received a HRG booking confirmation
That is correct. When you book with HRG your card wont charge until you present physically at the hotel when you check in. They will ask you credit card and your ID than you will see Charge on your card.
also, When I book phone used my Debit Visa card but when I checked in they also ask me credit card just incase if Debit does not go through. Anyway what they did with me Charge my card security deposit $125cad Due to they put me on another hotel. Next day when I checked my debit card found my booking on phone was actually charged. I ask Front desk and I was told $125 will be refunded back to you when you check out this hotel and nothing will be charged to you except what HRG gave you total price. Checked out already and expecting credit $125 back but other charge $979 is non refundable.

Another friend who is already present in Canada booked through HRG with his dad's credit card. Lady on the phone told him he needs a consent form from the hotel that his dad allows him to use his credit card. In the hotel upon check in he didn't need any form. The card got charged then. Some things are going easier than expected
As we can now book directly from any hotel, called up Embassy Suites by Hilton Toronto Airport and booked 3 day mandatory stay.. 1230$ total cost.. Received email confirmation immediately with 'GAA rate' mentioned in the 'Rate Information' field. Confirmed that this is official..
When did this change come in? I'm traveling on March 14 th. Phone service won't take booking unless flight is in next 48hrs.
Is there any govt rule now that u can book directly with hotel?
Yes it's in the official link only..
List of government-authorized hotels
The mandatory 3-night reservation at a government-authorized hotel is a fully pre-paid, non-refundable rate that will be charged to the credit card provided at the time of booking.
Book directly with the government-authorized hotels listed below.
Identify that you require accommodation for the COVID-19 mandatory 3-night hotel stopover.
Alberta: Calgary International Airport (YYC)
British Columbia: Vancouver International Airport (YVR)
Ontario: Toronto Pearson Airport (YYZ)
Quebec: Montréal-Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport (YUL)
Book your hotel
Direct
Some of the hotels offer direct online booking for government-authorized accommodation.
For all others, identify that you require accommodation for the COVID-19 mandatory 3-night stopover to ensure you are booked correctly.
It seems that the part that says booking can only be made through the gov number was removed. Does it mean we can the hotel directly and book a GAA?

His checkin was on 28th Noon and the hotel has automatically checked him out on the 2nd Noon and billed for 3 days. Is this counted as 3 days?
***********
He has booked a connecting flight based on the 3 day stay on the 3rd morning.
Has anyone come across this situation?

He paid for Feb 2nd so that means he should be checking out on the 3rd.
This is wrong. Please don't generalize that you wont be charged while booking thorough GAA. I think it depends on the hotel you are booking. For four points Toronto I was charged very day I booked the hotel and confirmation e-mail was within 2 minutes. Though my reservation is from 4th March through 7.
