My husband booked a room for 2 nights for a work trip. He booked around a month in advance via a phone call. He gave his credit card details to pay a deposit and secure the room. When he arrived, they had given away his room due to his credit card having expired. They only noticed on the day of arrival and claim to have called him that morning. He received no call, as evidenced by his lack of missed calls while driving (he showed the staff his phone and they still didn't believe him!). When he asked for the credit card details they had, they quoted him the wrong number. When he said that isn't his card details, they claim it must be an old card. It isn't. He has never had a card with those details or that expiry date. They assure him he must have 🤷♀️. Instead of apologising, they continue to tell him he gave the wrong number and they tried to call him, asking 'Shouldn't you have called to confirm your room a week ago?' Well, shouldn't you have taken the deposit weeks ago and called to let him know YOU wrote down the wrong number? He is now without a bed for the night and all you can do is blame him? People make mistakes all the time, but it is made far worse when they are unwilling to own up to them. Absolutely dreadful customer service.
