i'm at a hotel and it says it'll charge $3 for an hour of internet then $.80 per minute after that. so i did that 3 times now. BUT it says "Please be advised that a $70 hold will be placed on your credit card for 48 hours everytime you swipe."
it didn't say that when i logged onto the computer. it just said the price of $3 and $.80. i looked at my online statement and it said i had a negative amount of money available because it had $70 taken 4 times in the past days. i realize i'll get my money back but i'm still pretty upset since i've never had negative money available. oh and i spent ~$65 at the baltimore aquarium today as well.
WHY WHY WHY!?!?!?!?!

I'd be down at the front desk so fast, with a copy of the doc saying $3/hour, asking where do they get off putting a $70 "hold" on my account. http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...s/complain.gif If your dad is there, drag him along because, sadly, teenage girls aren't taken as seriously as middle-aged doctors.
BTW: The general rule in the U.S. is that teenager's can only enter into voidable contracts [except for "necessaries, which this is not]. So tell them you're going to void the contract. http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...milies/mad.gif
Crying also helps [for teenage girls, not for you dad]. http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...milies/cry.gif Stand off to one side, tears flowing, saying I can't believe you guys are taking all my money! Why? Why?? Why?!? Make a public spectacle. The object is to drive away potential customers. Suddenly, your measly $70 bucks won't seems so important to the hotel.
