Hi Ron and List, My guess is that I touched some nerves with my last posting to the List about the con artists at Econo Lodge Tucson. I just received numerous responses in a matter of minutes. This incident left a bad taste in our mouths at the show but we were lucky to get a really crappy room in a bad part of town within a few hours only to find out we could have stayed across the street cheaper in a better place. It was not a good start to the show but we managed to have a great time despite these bad people.
I spent months writing letters to anybody who would listen about the incident including that corporate office of Econo Lodge who permanently filed my complaint on their record. I sent emails to Triple A. who also said they would look into it. I sent a complaint to Hotels.com who did not do a thing about it. Only after taking legal action with my credit card company did anything happen. It probably took over a hundred hours of phone calls, letter writing and emails to get my money back. I asked the credit card company if they would file a criminal complaint and they said no. These crooks probably know nothing will happen to them from a criminal standpoint and will continue this unsavory practice. Welcome to America where you can get away with grand larceny with no criminal consequences. I was glad to have my money credited back because it was a very frustrating and time consuming process that I could barely spare the time for. I just want make others aware so they don't run into the same problems.
