( 3 / 3173 )Truth or BS: Full refund Cancellation.
New series called "Truth or BS" send your votes in and at the end of the week we will share how you voted and reveal the actual answer on the Blog. Be prepared to LOL and be amazed!!!
Employee: "Thank you for calling Mammoth Rental By Owner. This is Jamie, how can I help you?"
Guest: "Yes, I need to cancel my reservation."
Employee: “You can definitely cancel your reservation. Can I get your information so I can look up your reservation, please? ”Customer gave me their information and where they were staying.
Employee: "It looks like you are within the 14 day period, so we are going to have to charge you a 25% cancellation fee."
Guest: “But I am telling you verbally to cancel the reservation. So you can’t charge me a fee.”
Employee: “Ma’am, you agreed to the rental contract. It is binding. Do you recall checking boxes to agree to the rental terms when you booked your reservation?”
Guest: “Yes, I agreed to the terms of the rental contract. But it’s void because I’m telling you verbally to cancel it.”
Employee: “Telling us to cancel the contract does not void it. That’s like calling my cable company and saying my contract is invalid and I don’t owe any more payments because I am telling them verbally it’s cancelled.”
Guest: “But I am saying it. Verbally. So now I should not be charged a fee for cancelling.”
Employee: Unfortunately, this is the owners’ contract and it is binding and you agreed. The charges are what they are. I can see if the owner wants to consider other terms but I can not confirm that till I speak with the owner.
Guest: Yes, yes call the owner and see what you can do.
After about 15 minutes and speaking with the owner employee call the guest back.
Employee: Hello Mrs M*******, this is Jamie with Mammoth Rental By Owner. I spoke with the Owner of the property and they owner does not want to negotiate the contract. The Owner stated that you saw and agreed to the contract prior to booking your reservation and that the terms and conditions are binding.
Guest: OK then, I guess it just sucks that I can’t cancel my reservation and get a full refund just because its 1 day before we are scheduled to come.
Employee: Ma’ma, is there any thing else I can help you with?
(I sent her a copy of her rental contract. Hopefully someone helped her to understand what a contract was.)

( 3 / 6396 )Attention, weather superfans: El Niño might be coming back. And this time, we could be in for a big one.
Official NOAA Climate Prediction Center estimates peg the odds of El Niño’s return at 50 percent, but many climate scientists think that is a lowball estimate. And there are several indications that if it materializes, this year’s El Niño could be massive, a lot like the 1997-98 event that was the strongest on record.
“I think there’s no doubt that there’s an El Niño underway,” said climate scientist Kevin Trenberth of the U.S. National Center for Atmospheric Research. “The question is whether it’ll be a small or big one.”
On top of some late-’90s nostalgia, a strong El Niño would bring pronounced changes to weather patterns around the globe, and possibly relief from some of the less-pleasant weather trends that have dominated headlines this year. After a Polar Vortex-fueled, unbearably cold winter in the U.S. Midwest and East Coast, a strong El Niño could bring warmer, drier weather in late 2014. And to parched California and its prolonged drought, El Niño might provide drenching rainstorms to fill up reservoirs. But the news won’t all be good. Rainstorms in California could mean floods and mudslides and, coupled with climate change.
The winter is when El Niño really gets going, though. Moisture flows from Hawaii to southern California in an atmospheric river colloquially known as the “Pineapple Express.” This creates heavy rainfall that dumps on the region. Though this could bring some relief from California’s drought, it also comes with the risk of flash floods and mudslides because the ground has been so hard and dry.
If conditions remain as they are right now, by June researchers will know that El Niño is on its way.
Stay tuned for information on the upcoming Winter of 2014-2015 it could be a BIG SNOW YEAR!
