I got the call yesterday that the 'performance' for the weekend left around $7500 on the bill. When I told them all my cards were maxed out and my bank accounts were overdrawn, they were gracious enough to drop it down to $5500. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)
This whole charging thing still leaves a horrible taste in my mouth because it doesn't make any logical sense. But I'm the moron who put his name on the dotted line. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) At this point I doubt there is anything I can really do about it. There is around $1000 coming in from the silent auction. As I told a few people at the event, I really thought they were going to be a little more gracious about this.

Here are the contract papers. Any ideas or advice is welcome. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smiley_notworthy.gif) Page 3 has all the fine print. Stupid question but did you sign and send it in?? Did they get an original or did you fax it?? Did you initial any of the documents?? It occures to me that the hotel has a certain number of rooms to sell each night. You said that they were sold out on Saturday night (do they typically sellout on Fathers Day Weekend Saturday?? Did you push them way up on there 'occupancy rate on that day??) so that means that they had a certain number of unsold rooms on Friday and a certain number of unsold on Sunday. You need to get them to give you the number of rooms total for the property and the number of rooms actually sold on (in total) Friday and Sunday. They also have an 'occupancy rate' which is a percentage of sold rooms per night. If they average 50% on Fridays and they happen to be 75% on this particular Friday I would point that out. Same with Saturday. Did you have more than 50 rooms on Saturday?? You also need to start getting the names of all the different parties that were at the event and make sure that there total for rooms sold to WCC is the same as yours and if they are not they ned to provide the list of people that they have and you ned to check it against yours. Also when looking at the occupancy rate keep in mind that they keep a certain number of rooms open incase there is an emergency or Paris shows up. I will have the papers looked at and then give you a call. |
