Wynn does have the most annoying website of all the strip hotels.
But will the Pink’s sell burgerpipe?
Yay! Venetian charged me TWICE for my suite. So now I get to waste my lunch hour tomorrow calling their accounts receivable dept. Good times.
Hello Tim & Michelle,
Thanks once again for the great podcast. Just wanted to comment on the call you guys had in the beginning re: the individual who had issues using their debit card to check into the Venetian.
People may want to think twice before using a debit card to check into a hotel. I’ve heard some hotels put a hold on your funds for deposit purposes and sometimes don’t release them until after you have checked out.
Thanks again for the great podcast!
Where can I find the after show?
Tim,
To fuel your Spice Girls fetish with a “where are they now” seeing as you had not heard about her in a while. Emma is currently doing a ‘feel good songs’ Saturday afternoon show on our local radio station! Yep, we were suprised to hear her voice when tuning in on our way to the cinema.
Debit Cards:
Also in the case of some rental car companies, if you use a debit card they check your credit score before they will rent you a car, in addition to the huge hold many companies put on your debit card, always use a Credit Card for the holds at places like hotels and rental cards. Then switch over to the debit
I found a way to newter Wynn’s site so you don’t get annoyed with music… you’ll still get annoyed other ways 😉
I use firefox with Ad Blocker Plus and added
http://www.wynnlasvegas.com/audio/* to the list of blocked stuff. So my browser won’t load any audio from the wynn site. I’d rather approve sound if there is something I really want to hear from him.
Cheers,
Kire.
Last week’s after show is at http://www.dyslexicheart.com .
When people know that they are busted…why don’t they just tell Chris Hanson to fuck off when he asks them to sit down? They act like what they say to him will help set them free.
