“YTA for threatening to commit fraud and theft by charging their credit cards. If the $25 they paid to reserve their rooms is nonrefundable, fine, keep that deposit, UNLESS you were able to get a refund for the room fees. Charging someone’s credit card for a purchase that wasn’t authorized by the card holder is fraudulent/theft. The fact you didn’t intend to follow through with the $70 charge is almost irrelevant; it was an AH move to threaten it.”
