Curious as to if this has happened to anyone else.
We stayed at Ridges Sydney Airport last Friday, checked in using the automated machine, I’m sure I pressed ‘no’ for the breakfast option, but on checkout there was a charge for breakfast, which neither of us had as we intended to have something in a lounge.
When questioned the charge was deducted.
I wonder what the name/room validation is. Ask for room number, then name? Or perhaps ask for room number, staff checks and replies with your name? Easy to say ‘yes’, and voila, a free breakfast on someones else account.
As usual, I’m very much over thinking things…..![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
