  • it's not MY fault!

    oh wow, just had this one.
    SC: gentleman who apparently can't EVER make a mistake!

    Me: *greet man who walks in*
    SC: Hi, my name is M****
    Me: *look on my arrivals, he's not there. look up the room in the sister hotel's arrivals, not there*
    SC: It's spelled M*****
    Me: Okay, did you get a confirmation number, so maybe I could look it up that way?
    SC: NO It's spelled M****
    Me: Okay...well I am not finding that name in either mine or the *other hotel with Suites* computer either....
    SC: There's a *same name* & Suites?
    Me: Yep, there sure is.
    SC: Well, I called this hotel & a guy took my reservation!
    Me: Okay, well this evening we only had two ladies working...
    SC: I called at 5pm....
    Me: We only had two ladies working...
    SC: Well, I called this hotel! Could my name be spelled wrong???
    Me: I looked at that, also. Looked at all of the (first name) in house, and there are none on the arrivals.
    SC: Well, let me check my book BECAUSE I KNOW I called this hotel.
    Me: Okay *guest gets a AAA book & his cell*
    SC: I called 406-259-****
    Me: Okay, our number is 406-248-**** *I look at our hotel listings we have at the desk* It looks like you called the Best Western that is downtown.
    SC: Now why would I do that when I wanted here???!!!!???!?!?!
    Me: I am...not sure....
    SC: Well, I called here. I KNOW I DID!!!!!
    Me: Well, if your phone reads the 259 number, you called the Best Western downtown....
    SC: No, I would never do that!
    Me: okay...um...
    SC: See, it's right here. (shows me our number in AAA book)
    Me: Yep, that's us but your phone reads that other number. *guest proceeds to call our number, I hang up on him* Yep, that's us
    SC: Well, do you have problems with people calling your number & it going somewhere else???? *guest has picked up his attitude, & is now treating me like I am an idiot.*
    Me: Not that I am aware of....
    SC: Well, I know I called here. Why would I call the Best Western??? *guest proceeds to flip through his AAA book like a crazy person*
    Me: I am not sure...but you might want to call them back & cancel if you'd prefer to stay here. *guest not listening, flipping through book*
    SC: There is NO way I called them & not this hotel! There isn't even a Best Western listed *he has now flipped past the Best Westerns multiple times*
    Me: I am not sure....
    SC: I should be here!
    Me: ... You might want to give that other number a call & find out...
    SC: *finally calls them, asks me a question (if we have rooms left & if we have a 2 queen & allow pets) & in the middle of my answer he starts talking to the other hotel LOUDLY, what a dick...* (They confirm they have his reservation! But he asks them how this is possible since he meant to call our hotel. They don't know either *othen then perhaps...."well, you Mr, are a dumbass who apparently doesn't make mistakes EVER".*)
    SC: *guest gets his room canceled over there, and starts looking at his phone* See, there is YOUR number!
    Me: You dialed us after you arrived.... (Good try Mr. Idiot.)
    SC: *examines his phone some more, babbling about "I dialed this number, yours, then just called them...."
    Me: ...
    SC: Well, we need a two queen room. I just don't see how this happened! *repeat and rinse for a couple minutes all while I am trying to get him checked in*


    WOW. Mr. never makes a boo boo finally says it was dark in his car & he MIGHT have dialed the wrong place but he really doesn't think so.

      Fess up, TH777!

      You guys got his call, decided to call your competitor Best Western and book him there because your hotel is not in the business of making money.

      Why that makes perfect sense to me. Got to side with the SC on this one. Sorry.

              You might want to put a note on his record giving a brief summary of this just in case he tries to scam a discount or comp out of this for quote-unquote "your" mistake...

                Not only that, he then went and stole the guy's phone, hacked it and changed the call history.
