And I've been in Leaders Club since 2001 - and stay at several properties each year.

I have a booking at a Leading Hotel (not in this promotion) this weekend, and an alternate booking at a non-member property in the same city. I was genuinely not sure which one I would stay at. Now I think I know.

I intend to make it very clear that I don't appreciate doing business with groups that pull a stunt like this.

Yeah, I guess it was an "act of God" that caused their "screw-up."

They deserve all the bad publicity they get.

Of course, as I stated much earlier in this thread, I doubt that very many of their regular customers cared much about this deal. Basically, if you can afford to stay at these properties, you don't need to be spending your time on this "sweepstakes."

This LHW fiasco reminds me of the skit they do on the TV show Little Britain

"Sorry, computer says no."
