Prepare to be flamed by a small minority of SPG Fanboys on that Forum who consistently take a "The customer is always wrong, and a liar" position regarding any complaints.

The valet signs are usually in Mph, maybe the Canuck responds better to signs using the metric system like Max Speed 7 Km or Arret :-:

Oh yeah, I'm sure it will happen. Especially because I'm "only an SPG Gold." :rolleyes:

Haha. Although that doesn't really make sense as Canuck was walking and not driving.

He must be an aspiring GS.

I almost tweeted him back with a basic lesson on how fare buckets work.

That can be confirmed.

It's a good thing she wasn't wearing her snow-shoes. She wouldn't have been so agile in muck-a-lucks.

I feel for you. Stories like this never cease to amaze me.:rolleyes: When I was a junior attorney coming up at my law firm, we got it drilled into our head that it was a "service business". When the client said jump, we were to respond (generally) with "how high?" I have little use for folks in the hospitality/service world that don't bust their butts, show graciousness, etc. to their clients/customers.:td::td:

Happened to me when I asked why I was upgraded to an EXECUTIVE ROOM and not given access to the Club Lounge. I'm VERY :rolleyes::rolleyes: on SPG w/r/t gold benefits. At least Hilton specifies what I could be entitled to.

... there are benefits for being SPG gold besides the 50% points and the different key packet? :rolleyes:

That's not how I read it. I see it as them selling him 3 at the lower fare and 2 at a higher fare, averaging out to more than the lower. In other words, just like it should be.

I don't like that the airlines force everything up into the higher fare automatically rather than splitting it like this as a default, but asking for pricing on three and then changing to five has the potential to result in fare differences.

I agree with you.
