Another hotel chain overcharged me a few days on my Master Card. I had told them I planned to stay to a particular date, then I checked out early, and the checkout paperwork correctly reflected the # days I had stayed. When I saw that my credit card bill was much bigger than the paperwork they gave me on checkout, I called to get it fixed. They fixed it. They did not need me to give them my credit card # again. I was calling them 2 weeks after I checked out, when I saw my credit card bill. The chain was Econo Lodge. On Mon, 25 Aug 2008 20:00:24 +0000 (GMT), *Hobbit* wrote
... how come I can call Best Western and make a reservation on my Visa card, without informing them of the number? and I haven't slept in a Best Western in 5 years? And your card number hasn't changed in 5 years either?? Hmmm... But I would be hard pressed to believe that any hotel chain large or small ever destroys their records of people's card numbers. I would call bullshit on BW's "response" based on that alone. _H* _______________________________________________ Dataloss Mailing List (dataloss () attrition org) http://attrition.org/dataloss Tenable Network Security offers data leakage and compliance monitoring solutions for large and small networks.
