      I have found in life when the shoe fits the other foot then things are fine only when things do not work out in whatever situation then it becomes woe.
      Besides do not be surprised if the person whomever was in a clever disguise well aware of the situation and was just out for a ride that night.
      You're right. In fact let's let all thieves and criminals off the hook. Anyone who says they're sorry get's a free pass.

          You can relax folks.

          I already suggested earlier in this thread that I was going to out the guy once I have absolute proof. The door has shut on option #1.

          Meanwhile, the damn waiter is off for the next few days... of course

            Douche Baggery!!!

            I was told about this type of thing at my second show. All you have to have is a room number and make a decent effort at signing and there you are...

            However, that's not my style.

            I hope to see some incriminating proof in here

                As it seems something like this happens just about ever show, the smart thing to do is when you get your room, tell them to disable 'charging to the room'. They can do this easily for you. True, it sucks to need to be carrying cash with you at all times, especially in the pool/hot tub (my money and passport are still drying off heh) but you can def avoid situations like this.

                  Being hard line zero tolerance on crookery and thievery and lowlife douchebaggery is liberal thinking in your world? Where is this bizarro world you live in again? I want to visit it, and take pictures of the locals for a bizarro blog I'm doing.

                  Sorry friend, but someone forging your name and charging their expenses to your hotel room is criminal activity in any society except bizarro land. Anyone doing it deserves what Jay is now determined to do to them.

                  Are you related to Ned Flanders by any chance?

                    Ya know folks...
                    One should expect this kind of thing at the shows these days.
                    Lets be honest with each other for a sec. The trade shows are filled with loser's, Dregs wannabe's and thieves. Consider yourselves lucky no one got shot at this show.

                    Because I am callin it, someday there will be some fruit cake with a gun at a show and someone is going to get hurt. For now let's be glad they are just stealing money here and there.

                      I am also waiting for the first drug over dose drama.

                      Wait we already had a few over doses at shows so lets up it to Fatal Overdose.

                          Haven't seen it mentioned, but has anyone considered that it was an inside job. A guy on the staff mentions to some of his friends there is a porn show at the hotel, his friends come out and they tell them to charge the stuff on another room's tab. If you had been charging a lot of stuff to the room throughout your stay, they may have just figured it would have been glossed over on your part.

                          Might be a little far fetched, but as someone who has worked at a nice hotel when he was in college, I can tell you that this kind of stuff does happen.

                            sorry to hear about this Jay, makes it a bit tougher just to relax and enjoy yourself at these events. hope you find the douchebag and get him banned from all other events (to say the least).

                                    That sucks bigtime, Jay. So sorry to hear this happened to you. I must say that whenever I charged stuff to my own room at the cafe in the hotel or the pool bar, I was never asked to show any kind of ID whatsoever or even to show a room key. I thought that was a little lax of the staff.

                                        Frankly, I dont see the hotel coming through with the footage. You were credited the money back so the hotel is on the hook for the loss, which they will easily write off. It will be great if they do provide footage but the chances of them going through all of this trouble for cost of food, is unlikely. Be happy you got the perks without having to dispute it with your CC company.

                                        But definitely sure 110% sure before you out someone otherwise the lawsuit you would be facing may cost you everything.

                                          Do you raise this point to the staff or management?

                                              One good thing that *may* have come out of all this, is that when I hit the Radisson in Amsterdam, the first thing I will do, is to disable charging to room upon check in...

                                              If Im doing it, and no doubt others do it too, despite the inconvenience, it will help to avoid it happening again

                                                If Westin reimbursed you good for them. but someone still stole from you.

                                                If you give them public immunity you suck!

                                                That's all I have to say.

                                                If you have the surveillance picture you best post it here, find out who it is and press charges!

                                                Or you will suck just as bad as he does!

                                                      I think it's pathetic someone stoops that low for a damn lunch.

                                                      It's either the staff or someone in the industry if the 'industry only' rule remained for the show.

                                                            My bet it was Dennis Rodman cuz that guy is wacko to begin with.
                                                            Good call on Rodman. He tried to walk away from his one bar tab. : )

                                                            They don't ask to see any ID or room key though, which I find odd. It's rather easy to charge another person's room.

                                                            Sorry Jay that sucks. I hope he takes option #2 though too ...

                                                                I don't recall being asked to see a key, ID or anything of the sort when I have traveled and charged things to my room and often times it was several hundred dollars or more at a time. They really should require something to verify identification.

I figure the waiter will get popped for the whole thing. The hotel should tighten their security. With all the fucking that goes on in our industry and people are surprised when things like this happen?

I know I saw a charge at the cafe for 100 something that didn't look familliar, but I had so many meetings in there, that it could have been one that slipped my mind.

                                                                                        If this person's identity is found, it should be posted. I personally would have started a thread after the person was caught, and charged to out them. Giving them a chance to make it right sounds something out of an old western movie.

I must say that whenever I charged stuff to my own room at the cafe in the hotel or the pool bar, I was never asked to show any kind of ID whatsoever or even to show a room key. I thought that was a little lax of the staff.
