Uh, yes. That was in the past. I am referring to a poster who in the PRESENT knows that IHG is closing accounts for just this sort of thing NOW, but he calls their actions shameful if they were to close his account after he would knowingly enter those very codes, NOW??
I don't know if you agree with that, but if you do -- violating a rule but not willing to accept the consequences of your own actions, despite knowing that there might be a penalty to be paid -- is ludicrous.
