AND
they lie! My wife the RN recently booked a Motel/Hotel for a business
meeting with other RNs thru Expedia via Kayak but failed to note that it
was a non-refundable holiday special. (On her, live & learn--but
expensive lesson, damnit) When one of the key speakers couldn't make it
and my wife attempted to get them to simply re-apply the amt to a
different day in the same week Expedia refused., claiming they were
helpless as those were the conditions of that particular Hotel. When she
contacted the place directly they told her that, sorry, they'd love to
but those were Expedia's rules, not theirs. and Expedia controlled the
internet credit-card booking process. (If she had but booked direct,
sigh) "But they told me it was your conditions, my wife
exclaimed. "I know," the reservation gal replied with an exasperated,
resigned tone, "Unfortunately they lie all the time--they ALL do."
We're
doin' out inter-tubes homework, as we speak. Been doin' it for some
time now... my favorite recipe is Tide and gasoline in old whiskey
bottles. ;-)
When do the bomb-making classes start, Buck?
