Ed, I’m upset about my recent trip with my husband to Atlantic City. We never stay over, but one of the luxury hotels sent us information about how nice the rooms are, so we went. The key card for my hotel room had a little blue card on back that said “$150 will be charged to you if you smoke in this room.” My husband and I are elderly and don’t smoke, we both have heart problems, so I called the hotel’s front desk and explained that we smelled cigarettes in this room, and please don’t charge us for this. They billed us $150 anyway. I will never step foot in that place again, I am so sorry, and other people should know what’s going on. It sounds like a scam to me.

I can’t believe you paid it. I would’ve flipped out on them. That said, if you were charged on your credit card, I would call your credit card company and tell them there is no way you’re paying. Unreal. Disgusting. Go get your money back. Or call the newsroom here and maybe we’ll see what we could do.— Ed. Note
