I was on a little mini vacation with my family last week in San Diego, Ca.  

I slipped away from the resort to meet with a client for an hour.

When I went into the cheap hotel to rent a room for an hour they ran my cell phone number and they refused to rent the room to me because there were ads associated with my cell phone number!

I've always given my cell phone number before at hotels, even though I do have a home number I could use.  I usually stay at nicer hotels, though, so maybe only the cheap hotels are doing this.  Since this has never happened to me before, I thought I should post about it.

I'm sure many providers don't use there work phone number for anything but work, and that's smart, I know.  But I've always used my cell phone number and NEVER had anything like this happen before!  It was embarrassing and scary, even though the lady behind the desk was nice about it and even a little apologetic.

So, to the few people who will actually see this post, please pass this info on to the providers that you know.  

Have fun!

Be safe.
