A man who claimed he had been "bullied" into cancelling a £550 hotel room was furious to discover the proprietor went on to re-advertise it for almost four times the original price.
Mick Heslop, from County Durham, booked rooms in Liverpool and Glasgow for three separate weekends in May, in preparation for the Eurovision song contest next year. Mick chose to go through Booking.com due to their free cancellation policy.
He chose the The Joker Boat, in Liverpool Marina, which had a rate of £550 at the time of booking. However he claimed that the owners got in contact with him on October 5, to tell him it was "not acceptable" to book three Saturdays with "potential Eurovision".
