The alarm was switched off.I presume the alarm went off on the vehicle when it was unplugged didn't the hotel react to it ?
I think that you should really reconsider that cynicism as I think that to say what you said is doing the manager and most of the staff a huge injustice. They deserve our support for them offering their support IMO.You'll only know if it's made a difference if you go back and spend more money. So I'll keep my "cynical" hat on.
I know what you're saying but it would have given them a hell of a fright and they probably would think twice the next time@MickH The cable alarm was off. I do not switch it on at hotels. I think it would be grossly inconsiderate to have the alarm go off, perhaps in the middle of the night waking everyone up, just because some wally has unplugged my car.
Who would think twice? The people I would wake up are not the ones that did the unplugging are they. It wouldn't be right for me to wake up half the hotel for the actions of one idiot.I know what you're saying but it would have given them a hell of a fright and they probably would think twice the next time
You're not the one waking anybody up its the idiot who thinks its funny to unplug your vehicle and if they know by the alarm going off drawing attention to their actions they might think twice the next time they consider pulling the plug on someone elses EV.Who would think twice?

You turned up when the kitchen was closed and too late for you to buy some food, damn.However, I pressed them and asked if they had a socket I would be allowed to plug into and they said that I could be it would not be in the car park so if I was happy to park by the kitchen then that would be allowed.
