[eclipse.org-eclipsecon-program-committee] Internet charges at Hyatt

Hello all,
 
Great show. I'm still clearing out action items from last week.
 
Did anyone else get charged for Internet access on their Hyatt bill? On Monday the 23rd, they billed me for 5 days internet usage at $12.95 per day. Given that I was using either the conference wireless or my tethered 3G phone, I had no need for their internet access. Plus, since I checked in on 3/22, how can they make any assumptions about what I will or won't use on 3/23?  I woke at 3:45 a.m. on Friday to leave for the airport to catch a 6:10 a.m. flight, so I wasn't thinking too clearly when I left the hotel at 4:15 a.m.  Now that I'm doing my expense report, I see they stuck $64.75 on my account that I didn't approve of or use.  I'm now trying to get their accounting department to reverse the charges. 
 
Check your statements carefully if you stayed at the Hyatt.  If this turns out to be more widespread than just my experience, we may need to raise our voices with the hotel manager.
