Now the rest of the story. After I got to my destination, I called the motel, I got a night clerk, I asked if my wallet had been returned. He did not know what I was talking about. He had not been informed, so he checked the log, Well as you can guess they had not logged the theft. He told me they were supposed to log all that information so the night clerks could be informed. I bet that young man lost his job for that information. He was so apologetic, the most concerned person I had encounted at the motel.
Well I called California, they sent me a photocopy of my license, and my entire picture was black. No real identification there. But I had a license. Now to get on the plane. I had to be searched head to toe, set apart from the other passengers and scanned, take shoes off, remove everything that was removable. My luggage was red tagged. I was so glad to see all the precautions.
Now when I got home I called corporate, they filled out the necessary paperwork and sent me a form letter. I called my bank to deny the charges, they were amazed I ws even charged after all I had gone through. The Bank asked me to try to work it out with the motel, then they would step in if the Comfort Inn would not help me.
I called the Motel Manager, she said No it was not their fault and in most cases the customer finds their goods later on. She said I was blaming them and they were sure I would find it. She also informed me that she flew into Las Vegas and someone stole her identification but they let her on the plane with no problem. Her Words were,"They said I flew in so I could fly out". I should have gotten the name of that airline I would nto want to fly with them, They do not take enough precautions.
Anyway, She talked and talked, telling me the young man should not have told me that and he was only part time. No excuse for not telling all the maids, Finally I hung up on her in the middle of a sentence. She immediatily called me back, LOL I found that funny. She was going to say what she wanted and I was going to listen. She did most of the talking.
My feeling is a master key was used, when someone saw me go down without my purse. That is a very visible opening for theft.
OH yes the bank calle dme and said they would persue it if i wanted, I told her I had to pick my battles carefully, and that was one I did not want or need, physically or emotionally,
It was a very emotional experience. Number one not believed, Number two did not know how I would get home, number three, being charged for the room when they had no security in force, You get the picture I was upset and I can not afford to get too upset.
So now you know Mashelle how and why I was robbed, but I am sure you forgot, since Sher and I both told you all, but hey that comes with old age. LOL
