This year, the company can't afford to be reunited? "The company held an annual meeting in the hotel, and the electricity bill was charged 7,500 yuan".The first time I found out that the hotel party still charges electricity, and it is ridiculously expensive.
Why didn't you tell me about the heating bill on the first day? Only after checking out did I know, is it not clear that there is blackmail? ”
This is the opinion of some netizens! It can be seen that some netizens still feel that this practice is unreasonable, after all, hotels generally do not charge electricity bills, and this is 7,500 yuan after the fact, which can't help but make people question the charging problem.
But is this really the case? A huge hotel will lose its pattern because of 7,500 yuan? After watching the process of the entire company's rehearsal, some netizens felt that it was reasonable.
At the beginning of the incident, a netizen complained about "hotel electricity bills" on the Internet.
The incident happened in Changzhou, Jiangsu, and the company that booked the hotel had good financial resources and was a listed company. There are also a lot of employees, and there are at least three to five hundred people at 40 tables.
Ms. Liu, a member of the company, complained, "I haven't held an event at this hotel before, but this year I chose this one because the schedule of other hotels has expired." ”
40 tables were booked, and each table was 1,200 yuan！Ms. Liu's company negotiated with the hotel in advanceThere are no other additional costs
Just looking**, this** is cost-effective during the Chinese New Year. Usually, these hotels are at least 1,800 tables, not to mention the New Year's holiday.
Therefore, some netizens think that the price of the dishes in this hotel is quite reasonable and within the normal range.
If everything is charged according to the money you paid for the previous table booking, then no problem. But there was a problem with electricity bills halfway through.
Here's why:The company rehearsed 2-3 days in advance and turned on the air conditioner for heating
At first glance, this is indeed a mysterious. Originally, the hotel said that the others were free, and the air conditioning should be free. Isn't this a temporary price increase? It is inevitable that people will question the problem of "electricity bill assassin".
Ms. Liu's company had a conflict with the hotel, and the final account was not settled.
Maybe the hotel didn't expect that the company regarded the hotel as its "own home", and actually came to rehearse several days in advance.
The short skirt and shorts worn for rehearsals, it was a few degrees below zero in the weather in those daysThe people in the company shouted to the staff to turn on the air conditioner to the maximum
Driving to the maximum means using the most energy! The staff reminded them at the time: "Your rehearsal has not been a formal meal for the past few days, and the air conditioner has been turned on, so you have to charge the air conditioning fee for so long." ”
Seeing the staff grinding and chirping, the company's people thought that the hotel was knocking on the door, and the company's director responded at that time:
You can open it as you want, and you can calculate it as you want
Ordinary people must not know about the hotel's ** air conditioner, and they may want to add a few hundred thousand dollars at most. But when I checked out, it was really a slap in the face, who knew that there was an electricity bill of 7,500 yuan.
I believe many people have questioned:Is there a trick on the electricity bill? Is it possible that the hotel is misreporting**?
Let's take a look at the algorithm for electricity bills!
According to the staff, under normal circumstances, there is no charge for the use of air conditioning for the hotel's dinner party! This is the electricity bill for the previous rehearsal.
Ms. Liu's company specially hired someone to do the appraisal, but the accounting results were similar.
The staff said, "Our air conditioner is coal-burning, 4 pieces of 4 cents and 9 parties, calculated out, the hall air conditioner is 450-500 yuan per hour, of which the gas fee is 450 and the electricity fee is 50." It was held for more than 20 hours, and there was no charge from 2 p.m. to 8 p.m. on the day of the annual meeting, and the rest of the time had to be paid. ”If the unit price of this accounting is no problem, the cost of using this kind of empty is really high, and this business is down, I am afraid that the hotel will have to lose money, no wonder it is shouting to charge.
See this,Most netizens think that 7,500 yuan is reasonable again
At first sight, I was charged 7,500 yuan for electricity at an annual meeting. But if you look closely, you find that it's really hard to say. The hotel bill and other expenses are reasonable, and the unexpected extra 7,500 yuan of electricity bills are only available in the company for a few days at the annual meeting of the hotel.
Very understanding of the hotel, ** air conditioning is very electricity-intensive, it is really a big expense for the hotel.
The 7500 electricity bill is ok, not outrageous. In my previous office, if I asked the building to turn on the air conditioner on weekends, it was more than 500 square meters, and more than 10,000 per hour.
Our company uses an air conditioning fee of 4000 in the afternoon, which is normal.
That's where habitual thinking comes in! The hotel's **air conditioner is definitely not the same level as the **air conditioner at home**.
In the general residence, a living room is only dozens of square meters, and a few tables are full, but after all, the hotel uses commercial electricity, and a venue can accommodate dozens or hundreds of tables, and the energy consumption does not know how much it has turned?
Ms. Liu's company hired its own professionals to do the accounting, and the unit price is basically reasonableLooking at it this way, the electricity bill of 7,500 yuan alone is not too outrageous.
Actually,The high cost of electricity is one of the problems, and the unclear information of the hotel is also one of the problems
As mentioned above, if there is no problem with accounting, then you don't have to worry about whether the 7,500 yuan is expensive or not.
On the whole, both sides did something wrong during this period.
First of all, the company used the hotel's equipment for a long time, and rehearsed for 2-3 days, and the staff reminded the charging problem on the way, but it still did not attract attention.
This illustratesThe company's personnel were careless and did not listen to persuasion when dealing with the air conditioning problem, resulting in high costs。Everything must be communicated properly, not to spend money, but to the end of the wool, in addition to free services, there are also basic moral qualities.
Secondly, the hotel's charging system is not perfect.
The hotel claims that everything else is free, so why isn't the specific list of free things listed?
It can be seen that the "free" of the hotel is conditional. According to the staff, it is generally free only on the day of the dinner. Then, when booking, you should mark the items and duration of free useMake the price clearly marked
If the hotel clearly indicates the price in advance, list the electricity bill that exceeds the time limit and inform the company! Then, don't say 7,500 yuan afterwards, even if it's 75,000 yuan, you should give what you should give.
If it is not clear at the time, it will inevitably make people question the consumption, because it involves the customer's right to know and the right to make their own choice.
At present, the two sides have not reached an agreement through negotiation, and it is necessary to go through the procedure to settle the account later.
In reality, everyone likes to negotiate the ** at one time, so that everyone can choose freely, and everyone can know it.
However, it is inevitable that people will feel uncomfortable when they are told the charging items in the middle of the process. Because no matter whether it is reasonable or not, customers have a kind of psychology of being pitted, which affects the sense of experience.
The best thing to do is to make all the details of the charges clear in advance to avoid disagreements in the future.
