1) Try calling the hotel and asking them to shift the charge. Explain that you company won’t reimburse you for the personal card (95% they will help)

2) if that fails try billing the expense anyway and being apologetic.

3) If that fails, keep the receipt and take the tax deduction.

The hotel will change the card. It won’t be a biggie

Yeah I did the same exact thing and the hotel changed my card right away

Why didn’t you just call them in the first place? They have the ability to do stuff, not us.

The hotel will fix. But if they don’t, just say that you accidentally used the wrong card. If there isn’t a pattern of “mistakes”, it will be fine

For incidentals. I didn't think to bring my Corp amex so I put down my visa. The entire trip ended up being charged to my visa... How to explain that I thought my amex would be charged when I booked the hotel? Am I gonna get in trouble? First time travelling to a non DU location for work.

Thanks guys. Will they change it even if I checked out yesterday?

Such a relief!! About to call the hotel

It’s really not a big deal to use personal... you have to provide a statement anyway

Not trying to be a dick, but that’s how you figure stuff out - you talk to the people that have the power and see what the options are.

@manager 1 just looking to see if anyone else had been in the situation for my own comfort. Certainly hompew you deal with your subordinates the same way, so they too may see your wisdom

Hi, I'm an employee at a hotel chain who works remotely. I've been working remotely for over a year now and I love it! The company I work for is very supportive of remote workers, which is great.

Told a friend of mine in tech I was considering moving to BCG. He asked me if I would have to move to Boston.

I followed up by asking what he thought the top consulting firms were. "I'd guess PwC and then McKinsey are the best. I've also heard of KPMG, Deloitte, and Bain, but I don't know much about them."

Just a reminder that outside our bubble no-one really cares about firm prestige etc.
