thats because the receptionist did know... when you check out of your room it should be noted on your bill and you should have been charged for it...

so what if she did know anyway... watch whatever you want.

Ordered it once... We got about 15 minutes in... I think they should charge less for it & only have 20 minute movies!

When on a business trip, you are ethically & morally required to order porn when you get in drunk at 3am, then pass out leaving it on all night.

On a related note...

A mate of mine used to work on the ferries, decided to use up his free £40 Esat credit on his mobile by phoning a sex line from the back of a porn mag whilst drunk in Hollyhead. He fell asleep, got himself a phone bill for over £150...

And if your boss is staying in the same hotel - make sure that it's charged to his room!

It just says "Room Service" on the bill.
I have never bothered getting it though when on a business trip as the company is quite strict on what you can and can't expense...

Whilst being almost correct it's not fully correct for most hotels. Majority of hotels use lodgenet as their t.v./movie/nintendo/music system and this reports nintendo/music/movies as "Video Services" on the bill. However the person working at the front desk can just check on the main lodgenet computer, usually located in the office behind front desk and check the room to see what movie/music/nintendo was viewed/heard/played.

Hotel porn is really really really really bad.

Myself and two mates got stuck in Barcalona overnight before, and put up by iberia in this fancy hotel close to the airport where they fed us scraps from the kitchen cos the airline was paying for it. However, the porn-o-meter was broken in myself and one of the other guys shared room and was pumping mid to high quality german hardcore in for free. not much use in a shared room though. Our mate in the single room was raging as his was asking for the usual room numbers.

Porn in hotels is typically a rip-off. I know people who surfed between the porn channels all-night and got a bill for $500 - each channel change was $12.95 - have some sympathy for them - they were locked - you'd need a baseball bat and a kevlar jacket to get this sort of money out of me when I'm locked! You can probably get more out of me when I'm sober and you are a legit - rip-off business

The "take advantage of the enebriated" industry must be worth trillions worldwide...

Quite frankly I'm sick of any rip-off- even if takes advantage of stupidity.

The only porn I've ever watched in hotel-room was not mine. Didn't mean to sound smug - but this is "fat tony" terrain (simpsons).

[EDIT Jebus To clarify: not my hotel room, as opposed to watching me on screen ( my video) haven't made one yet... Don't think anyone would pay €25,000 for a copy tbh [/EDIT]

When i was away in France for a few days and was staying in a hotel (not a good hotel) they were showing porn all through the day. This was a school trip so me and my friends were watching it at night.! We'd have it down real low because we were scared a teacher would walk by and hear it!!!! Then the next morning we found out everyone was watching it! Plus we didnt even have to pay for it. :eek:

You mean two seperate sets of school children on a trip to Europe ordered Porn! :eek:

One is a minor slip up, but TWO. I'm shocked, shocked and appalled that our children are being exposed to such flith while on the continent! This is another argument when the EU must be stopped and we should be using those fancy flags as loo roll......

*Whoa shakes head*

Dammit I'm channelling the spirit of Justin Barrett again.

Order away & whack away... cheaper & safer than a 'call-girl' service & also not illegal
