I'd be way more upset if I opted to pay cash for the room, then wanted to switch it to P&M.
P&M was offered right up to the day the changes were announced. I had planned to make the switch a couple of days earlier but didn't think there was any rush. Then I saw the announcement and figured I better do it but from that day onward, there was no way to book P&M. When I asked, I was told that hotel had pulled P&M until the changes came into effect. It then became bookable again after the implementation date but at 2.5 times the cash price as it was before the changes.
