Did YOU sign the credit card slip for the damages though or did she? If you did, she is trying to get you on a technicality. THen, I would Talk to the credit card company and not this loonie because you will only fan the flames more at this point. And re reading your post...yes it sounds like she is just complaining more and more.Have you actually TALKED to this person since this all happened? Emailing back and forth just doesn't cut it. DId she actually sign her credit card slip when she checked in? Do you have the actual one?Chargeback update - Just when I thought it was over, I receive this email today (altered for security). Now she is trying a different tactic. I am tempted to simply ignor it. How would you folks handle this ?
And btw, yes it is hers.....freakin' idgit.

[COLOR= black]On my desk, I have a copy of a receipt for the $____ you charged on my credit card, bearing a signature that is not mine. [/COLOR][COLOR= black]This is forgery, which is a crime[/COLOR][COLOR= black]. [COLOR= black]I don't know if you are aware of this, but no matter how small the amount involved, a person convicted of forgery will have felony criminal record.[/COLOR][/COLOR]
[COLOR= black]Because of your actions, I have gone through months of endless phone calls back and forth with my credit card company, have had the account closed due to “fraudulent activity,” and am now only beginning to go through the hassle of re-assigning a new card to all my personal and business activities connected to the account that was closed.[/COLOR]
[COLOR= black]However, since discretion is the better part of valor, I've decided not to pursue the matter further. I send this note as a warning that you should most certainly not do this to any future guests of your inn. [/COLOR]

Thoughts?.
Without going back through all the old posts....Did you charge her for the damages? HOw much? Did she OK them? Do you have that in writing? Have you actually gotten a charge back from her credit card company? Or is this just another message from her out of the blue?
HOnestly, I would pick up the phone and talk to this woman and find out what her problem is....I know..what it is...just being facetious here. She is a real loon if you ask me, but she is trying to get out of paying you. YOu could tell her you will take her to small claims court as she agreed to the payment.
If however, you have no proof, and actually do get a chargeback, I doubt the credit card company will go along with it.
Sorry you are having this issue.
.Yes I have all documentation including signed credit card slips. I did charge her for the damages she agreed to pay and I do have it in writing.catlady said:Have you actually TALKED to this person since this all happened?

I have not talked with her on the phone. I am going through the chargeback process with the cc company. By the wording, it sounds to me like she is going to back off, but wanted to complain a bit more about it first.
