Hotel Letters
Hotel letters that get a response.
The FTC's Junk Fees Rule took effect May 12, 2025 and state Attorneys General have been winning resort-fee cases since 2019. These letters cite both — plus the Fair Credit Billing Act chargeback that resolves most disputes regardless of what the hotel says.
Hotel Overcharge Dispute Letter (Free Template + State UDAP + FCBA Chargeback)
Your hotel statement has charges you didn't authorize — surprise resort fees, mini-bar items you never touched, parking you didn't use, an incidentals hold that became a posted charge. This letter is the layered demand that resolves most of them.

Hotel Resort Fee Dispute Letter (FTC Junk Fees Rule + State AG Enforcement)

Hotel Double-Charge Dispute Letter (FCBA / Reg E + UDAP Layered Demand)
Same stay billed twice. Pre-authorization hold never released. Deposit and final balance both captured. This letter is the layered demand — and the chargeback that resolves most of these without further escalation.
