Hell, do any of you even remember 8-track tape? British journalist Benji Lanyado insists that between twitter and a few apps and websites, there's no need to ever carry a guidebook again. For us, the implication is, Don't bother writing one.
Is he right, or is he overstating the case?
I rented a car in Dallas. I booked it from Canada, gave them the credit card number. Like most people, my platinum card provides insurance when I use it to rent a car. The guy on the rental desk wouldn't accept that. He was bound to charge me extra for the insurance. When I dug in my heels, he insisted I write down the insurance company providing the coverage through my credit card. So I wrote down TD Insurance. The card was through the TD Bank and like all Canadian banks they have their own insurance companies, so it was a close-ish name.
My point: either this guy wasn't probably trained or he was trained to upsell by ignoring the agreements the company has with various credit card companies.
Now that I remember.....grrrrrr!
