The Ritz forgot my wake up call. Woke up at 8:10 on my own instead of 6:20. How many points?

It’s 2020 and you’re relying on someone else to wake you up?

I use wake up calls as a failsafe, but never as my first alarm.

This is a really weird way to say you forgot to set an alarm?

These responses are nuts. If you ask for a wake up call, you should get your wake up call. I’d just complain and see how many points they give you. Considering it’s the Ritz, I got offered 30,000 for them charging my credit card for something I didn’t get.

People like you are responsible for the overall devaluing of points.

How are you sure they didn’t call you?

I agree with the first half of D1's response. I use a wakeup call 100% of the time and never bother with alarm clock or cell phone. If they say they're going to do it, they should do it.
