I asked if you knew for a fact that the wireless fee was not removed from the bill for elite members or not
If you do not know for sure elites would have had to pay for wireless, please name the hotel so I could find out.
Conrad Dublin, Trafalgar, London Green Park, and the LHR Hilton all charged for wireless internet for elites. I specifically asked at the front desk at each hotel. I got the same answer: yes, there is free internet but it is with the landline/wired only. If I wanted the wireless, I would be charged.
Did I use the wireless anyway and demand it to be take off despite being told I would be charged? No. Frankly, I wouldn't have had an argument. How can you argue if you were already given the included benefit but wanted (expected) a higher benefit? It's like demanding a full breakfast even though you are entitled to only a continental one.
Again, the benefit is for free internet. It does NOT say they must give us wireless, only in-room free internet. If we are given the landline free, they are indeed fulfilling their part of the benefits.
