My nights have been converted for less value and the new reward values for hotel bookings are very low. Anyone found any good alternatives? Not a fan of Hilton or Marriott. Really liked the…

Is there any hope of getting some of my money back?

They have shared credit card details and taken money from a current account apparently, amongst other things. I've tried to put the same deal together myself, but cannot come anywhere near it at all!
