I had this a year ago in Las Vegas where I had booked a good rate and pre paid for it. I was charged for calls coming into my room, daily charge on having a phone in my room and double charged for my breakfast each day.

I only found out about these charges when I got back to the UK when they sent me a bill.

When I checked out I had simply dropped my key into the express key point, as I had charged nothing to my room and paid for everything whilst I was there.

I returned the bill with a covering letter asking them to choose one of the following options:-

Answer this question correctly to have your invoice paid !!!

"What are the chance of me paying this bill?

1) No chance
2) Absolutely no chance
3) Absolutely no $% && chance

Upon receipt of the correct answer we will forward these charges to you.

Needless to say I did not hear from them again
