£500 is excessive. And fighting guests over your scummy practice. Not on.

Hope a regulator steps in and looks at this but not hopeful.

    This is Amerikkka. The regulators exist to ensure that there are as many scams running as possible.

    You are correct. Unfortunately in many sectors in the US that's not what's happening. Of course, it's not true across the board. There are exceptions, like the NTSB. But then the NTSB can only make recommendations, and it's enforcement counterparts, like the FAA, have no teeth. The FAA is now in essence run by the airlines the agency is supposed to regulate.

    And until enough blood is spilled, this will continue
