Getting short changed €5 at the Oase reception
[QUOTE=Ortos]What trap? What are you on about here? I think you are seriously mistaken if you think that the ladies who work the Eintritt desk at Oase deliberately try to cheat people by not giving them 5E change. It is true that some guys, in their rush to get into the action, hand the lady 70E and forget themselves to collect the change, but I doubt you are reporting accurately if you say that it is the Modus Operandi of Oase to pocket 5E extra from each customer! Where on earth did you get this idea?
Personally I think you are just as mistaken about this, as you are about Palace being a club with "too many sharks."[/QUOTE]
Hi Ortos and Mr Styles,
I agree with Ortos' comment that there is no cabal at Oase's reception to collect an additional €5 by short changing as many customers as they can for the €65 by with holding €5 change from the original €70 proferred in settlement of the entritt fee.
I have commented that there have been the odd ocassion where I have neglected to wait for my €5 change after paying €70 for the €65 entritt fee. I noted that I may have been in a hurry to check out the CDL line up. However, I do retain prescene enough of mind to get my wrist band to indicate that I have paid and my locker key and two towels. One towel to dry myself after my initial shower and the second towel to keep dry for me to wrap around my waist or hang over one shoulder with nothing covering their groin area like the German guys do. I sometimes forget to wait to get my €5 change before tootling off to the basement lockers.
Since the entritt fee is usually a cash transaction with no receipt indicating the amount paid over and the amount of change received if any it is hard to come back to reception and question whether you received your €5 change. I have never done it myself but some guys have said that they have paid the entrance fee on their debit or credit cards.
There are credit card facilities at Oase where you can get cash back but I think there is a 10% or something like that surcharge for the priviledge of using plastic. It is always interesting when a man at the valuables locker has spent a bit more than he thought whether it is by strict time keeping, doing anal sex or coming in the girls mouth and he has to go to the reception to get cash back on his plastic to settle with the CDL.
