Had they tried a bait and switch like you experienced then maybe there's a chance I wouldn't have seen it.
I showed them my reservation rate in the app (in USD) and they promptly fixed this issue for me. Well actually it took him about 5 minutes to do so. And after it was fixed I actually think the MXN total was a little less than I was expecting. Either that or an extremely favorable exchange rate? Another weird thing that happened is even though I was charged the correct amount at check out, I was awarded points earnings as if I had spent about 20% more than I should have been. Right on the bill. It says my total was X, and my total eligible spend was 1.15X
BTW is your "168" username related to "一路發"
