McDonald's French Fries.
So, I went to McDonald's yesterday and ordered a large meal. After payment I was just standing on the counter only as there was no body after me. I was looking at this lady who was preparing my order and what I saw was one of the very dirty business tactics.
While she was filling up french fries for me, she pinched the box from the bottom to reduce its volume. It looked like its filled upto top. I shook it and the large french fries became half. I asked the lady about it and she felt freaking embarrassed as I have caught her doing something wrong.
I asked her :- Do you guys do this to everyone or it just happened with me?
She said :- Thank you sir.
I was obviously not satisfied with her reply so I googled & guess what?
Same happened with some other people too.
Some staff have claimed it online that they were trained for this.
McDonald's, what happened to you guys? We were good friends. Why would you do that to me? Don't be so stingy about it man. I still love you though. :)
Next time you go to McDonald's, make sure you get what you pay for. Nobody wants to pay for a half empty box filled with air.

麦当劳薯条。
确是如此,我昨天去了麦当劳,点了一顿大餐。付款后,我仍站在柜台上,只是因为没有人在我后面排队而已。我看着这位女士,她正在准备我的订单,我看到的是一种非常卑鄙的商业策略。
当她给我装炸薯条时,她从盒子底部把盒子捏了一下,以减少它的容积。它看起来像是被填满了。我摇了摇,大薯条变成了一半。我问那位女士这是咋回事,因为我发现她做错了什么,她感到非常尴尬。
我问她:你们是对每个人都这样做,还是只对我这样操作?
她说:谢谢你,先生。
我对她的回答明显不满意,所以我在谷歌上搜索此类情况,猜猜怎么着?
其他一些人也遇到类似情况。
一些员工在网上声称他们接受过这方面的培训。
麦当劳,你们这是怎么了?我们可是好朋友,你为什么要这样对我?别那么小气,伙计。但我仍然爱你。
下次你去麦当劳时,一定要确保得到你该得的东西。没人愿意为一个装满空气的半空盒子付钱。

Never order a triangular shaped pastry at any eatery
I used to work out of bistro everyday. During weekdays I used to see a lot of business meetings happening around me (guess that’s how eateries survive during weekdays).
One day I saw a group of 3 folks take a table next to me. The bistro was a little cramped so anyone can hear the conversation on the next table. The bistro was in a Mall & these 3 folks were most likely running an eatery in the Mall. After discussing the sales strategy and other ideas, here is what I heard from one of the 3 folks (who was most likely the floor manager)
Floor Manager (to the Owner): Sir, by the way what are we supposed to do with the cakes that didn’t sell since last 4 days?
Owner (in a super fast reply): Cut them into pastries & sell
I was dumbstruck & turned around to give him a surprised stare on what he just said. Irony of the situation was seeing a triangular pastry sitting on my table in my order as well. Gosh!
Yes fellas, next time you get tempted to order that sweet looking pastry, remember it was a part of the cake that never got sold off.
Upvote & Share so that other people can know about this !
P.S: The rectangular shaped pastries are a better bet since the icing will appear to be assymetric if it was cut from a cake.

不要在任何餐馆点三角形的糕点
我以前每天都在小酒馆工作。在工作日,我经常看到很多商务会议(我猜这就是餐馆在工作日的生存方式)。
一天,我看到一个三人小组坐在我旁边的桌子上。小酒馆有点挤,所以任何人都能听到隔壁桌子上的谈话。小酒馆在商场里,这三个人很可能在商场里开了一家餐馆。在讨论了销售策略和其他想法后,下面是我从三个人中的一个人那里听到的(他很可能是楼层经理)
楼层经理(对店主):先生,顺便问一下,我们该怎么处理这些蛋糕,因为这些蛋糕在过去四天里一直没有卖出去?
店主(以极快的速度回答):把它们切成糕点出售
我目瞪口呆,转过身,因刚才说的话而惊讶地盯着他。具有讽刺意味的是,讽刺的是,我的桌子上也有一个三角形的糕点,天哪!
是的,伙计们,下一次当你们想点那个看起来很甜的糕点时,请记住它是一直没被卖出过的蛋糕的一部分。
点赞和分享,让其他人知道这一点!
注:长方形糕点是一个更好的选择,因为如果从蛋糕上切下糖霜,糖霜看起来会不对称。

I have read so many answers, but one name is missing here. Bangalore famous Kanti Sweets.
There has not been even a single time when I have not observed or been victim of this scam. They always charge for more weight of sweets than actual by adding box weight to sweets weight.
Incident of a day:
Me: Give me 500 gm of X sweets.
Seller Fills a box (without cover) with sweets. When the machine reads 544 gm, he stops and yells to cashier to prepare bill for 530 gm.
Me: What is the weight of the box?
Seller: 10g sir. (Trying to justify his 530gm bill).
Me: No, it has to be around 30gm (without cover).

我读了很多答案,但这里没人提到班加罗尔著名的坎蒂糖果。
我从来没有一次没有注意到这个骗局,也没有一次没有成为这个骗局的受害者。他们总是通过在糖果重量上加上盒装重量来收取比实际重量更多的费用。
某天事件:
我:给我500克X糖。
卖家在一个盒子里(没有盖子)装满糖果。当机器读到544克时,他停下来,向出纳员大喊,准备530克的账单。
我:这个箱子有多重?
卖家:10g先生。(试图为他的530g说辞所辩护)。
我:不,它肯定有30克左右(没有盖子)。

This time seller puts the sweets box with cover on the weighing machine and the machine reads as 555 gm.
Seller: See, 555–30 (as you said) ~ 530 gm.
Me: Don't try to fool me, this is not the first time I am asking you to do this. But looks like you don't remember it for next time. Put an empty box with cover on the weighing machine now.
Now the seller understood that he is running out of his tricks. Reluctantly he puts one empty box with cover on the machine and that weighs 45gm.
So ideally the weight of the sweets is only 555–45= 510 gm.
Now he billed me for only 510gm saying sorry sir.
I have visited 3 branches of Kanti Sweets in Bangalore and all 3 does the same. So, I can safely assume this happens at all the Kanti Sweets branches all the time.

这一次,卖家将带盖的糖果盒放在称重机上,称重机读数为555 g。
卖家:看,555-30克(如你所说)大约530克。
我:别骗我,这不是我第一次让你这么做。但看来你下次不会记得了。现在把一个带盖子的空盒子放在称重机上。
现在卖家明白了,他的把戏玩不了了。他不情愿地把一个有盖的空盒子放在机器上,重45克。
因此,理想情况下,糖果的重量仅为555–45=510克。
现在他只得给我开了510g的账单并为此道歉。
我去过班加罗尔坎蒂糖果公司的三家分店,三家分店都是这样做的。所以,我可以放心地假设这种情况在所有的坎蒂糖果店一直存在。

For the people who are judging me for a small value 20gm sweets:
I don't mind highly priced sweets at first place.
They have put a label on the weighing machine itself saying “ Please make sure box weight is not added in the final weight. “ I always refer to that while making my argument to them.
Cost of 20gm sweets with rate of 800rs per kg is 16rs. May be a small amount for me even, but i am not interested in throwing it in a cheater’s hand.
If they do it with 200 customers on an average day, in one branch. Then, 16*200*30 = 96000 per month in one branch. It is like running the shop rent free and employees payment coming from here only.
At the end, it gives satisfaction that a cunning person couldn't fool me and others don't even pay a heed to this.

对于那些因为20g的小糖果而对我指点的人:
首先,我不介意糖果定高价。
他们在称重机上贴了一个标签,上面写着“请确保最终的重量中没有添加箱重。”我在向他们陈述我的观点时总是提到这个。
每公斤糖果800卢比下20g糖果为16卢比。对我来说,这可能是一个小数目,但我不想把它扔进骗子的手里。
如果每家分店平均每天接待200名客户。那么,在一个分店中,每月16*200*30=96000卢比。这就相当于经营的这家店是免租金的,只需给员工付工资就可以了。
最终,其他人甚至都不理会此事,不过狡猾的人骗不了我,而这让我感到满足。

Mumbai Domestic Airport,Terminal 1.
Last weekend,I was returning to Chennai after meeting my elder brother.On reaching the Airport,I was informed about the flight delay.
I had spare 2–3 hrs in hand and was busy watching IPL on my phone.After sometime I got bored of it and was having the urge to smoke.I did not have any cigarette beforehand so I was compelled to buy the whole packet.(As they sell only packets)
Conversation at the counter went like this:

孟买国内机场1号航站楼。
上周末,我在与哥哥会面后返回金奈。一到机场,我就被告知航班延误。
我手头有2-3个小时的空闲时间,忙着在手机上看印度板球超级联赛。过了一段时间,我厌倦了后有了吸烟的冲动。我事先没有香烟,所以我不得不买了整包。(因为他们只卖整包)
柜台前的对话是这样的:

Me: Bhaiya ek Classic Regular ka packet dena.(Brother,give me a packet of Classic Regular).Handing him a 500rs note.
Now the actual price of a full packet Classic regular is Rs 300.
He: Ye lo ! (Handing me the packet and the spare amount of Rs 120).
Me: Bhaiya! Ye 300 ka packet hota hai. Rs 200 wapas hoega.(Brother,the packet is of Rs.300.Return me Rs.200)
I was clearly seeing the price labelled on the packet as Rs300.
He: Airport per itne ka hi milta hai ! (The price is this much at the Airport).
Me:Ok bhaiya. Phir aap mujhe bill de do.(Ok brother.Please give me the bill then.)
He was shocked,he hesitated and after a while he responded-

我:哥们,给我一包普通的Classic香烟,同时递给他一张500卢比的钞票。
现在,一包普通的Classic香烟的实际价格是300卢比。
他:把整包烟和剩余的120卢比递给我。
我:兄弟,这包烟是300卢比,还要给我200卢比吧。
我清楚地看到明码标价是300卢比。
他:机场的价格就是这么高。
我:好的,兄弟。那么请把账单给我。
他震惊了,犹豫了一下,过了一会儿,他做出了回应-

He:Aap pehle smoke kar lo,phir deta hu bill.(You smoke first and then I will give you the bill)
He thought I won’t return asking for the bill.I went and smoked.I returned at the counter.
Me: Haan Bhaiya,wo bill de do.(Yeah brother,now give me the bill)
He was horrified.For few seconds he was searching here n there.
He: (Acting innocent) Kaun sa cig. lia tha ?(Which cig. did you buy?)
Showed him the packet.
He: (Innocently) Galiti se jayda le lia bhaiya, ye lo Rs 200.(By mistake I took more,take this Rs 200 note)
That Rs80 would have gone directly in his pocket.He was misusing the fact that people here at the airport are rich and thus they won’t care about the price.
He was ashamed!
I gave him a wicked smile and left the place like a winner!!

他:你先抽烟,然后我给你账单。
他以为我不会回来索要账单。我去抽烟了后回到柜台。
我:兄弟,现在把账单给我吧。
他吓坏了,他在这里和那里搜寻了几秒钟。
他:(装出无辜的样子,你买的什么烟?
给他看了烟。
他:我不小心拿错了,这是给你的200卢比。
那80卢比会直接进入他的口袋。他误用了一个事实,即机场里的人都很富有,因此他们不会在乎价格。
他感到羞愧!
我给了他一个邪恶的微笑,像个胜利者一样离开了这个地方!

Saurabh Madhwani, Managing Director at Getsetdine.com (2019-present)
As i come from a business family , i believe there are a lot of Business tactics in various businesses that i know.
There are 3 reasons i took up this business in particular.
My family deals in clothes, so i know the ins and outs of this business.
This is a basic necessity of every individual and chances are high that one can get exploited easily.
This is one business where anyone can be tricked. (even the one who deals in them) For Example : ME
I’ll narrate an incident where a customer was tricked in seconds.
I with my father were shopping for my Uncle’s Sherwani (ethnic dress for a Groom in India) and we were able to find a similar piece of cloth as Virat Kohli is wearing in this “Manyavar Ad”
When enquired about the price the shopkeeper quoted it at INR 700/metre.
My dad being a cloth merchant himself negotiated and brought the price down to INR. 465/metre.
We both finally agreed at the said price above and asked the shopkeeper to give us 3 metre of that cloth.
Out of curiosity the shopkeeper asked me what will you make of this cloth ?

由于我来自一个商业家庭,我相信在我所知道的各种行业中都有很多商业策略。
我从事这个行业有三个原因。
我们家经营服装,所以我知道这个行业的来龙去脉。
这是每个人的基本需要,很容易被利用。
这是一个任何人都可能上当受骗的行业。(甚至是做生意的人)甚至包括我自己。
我将讲述一个顾客在几秒钟内被骗的事件。
我和父亲去给我叔叔买Sherwani(印度新郎穿的民族服装),我们找到了一件和Virat Kohli在“Manyavar广告”中穿的相似的布料
当询问价格时,店主报700卢比/米。
我父亲是一名布商,他自己谈判后把价格降到了465卢比/米。
我们最终都同意了上述价格,并要求店主给我们3米布。
出于好奇,店主问我你用这种布料做什么?

i showed him the Virat Kohli picture attached above and his eyes lit up and he had some mixed feelings that i could clearly see on his face.
He was happy that he possessed the same cloth material which manayavar was providing at INR 25k.
He was sad that he could have charged more from us but failed to do so.
He said : “I should have charged you more for this awesome design”. He then turned to his salesman and said : “Rakesh add ‘ 1 ’ before the price we had set earlier.
Remember the earlier price was INR 700/meter and he has now revised it to INR 1700/meter

我给他看了附在上面的Virat Kohli的照片,他的眼睛亮了起来,他的眼睛亮了起来,我可以从他的脸上清楚地看到他的复杂情绪。
他很高兴自己拥有“Manyavar广告”价值2.5万卢布的布料相同的布料。
他很难过,他本可以向我们索取更多,但没有做到。
他说:“我应该为这个了不起的设计多收些钱。”然后他转向销售员说:“Rakesh,在我们之前设定的价格前加了‘1’
记得之前的价格是700卢比/米,现在他把价格改为1700卢比/米

Now here comes the trick part-
After we were done with all this, another customer (a girl with her elder brother) entered his showroom and asked the shopkeeper to suggest something good for his brother.
He asked the guy what would he like to wear and the guy said “Sherwani mei kuch dikha do” (Show me something ethnic)
And there the shopkeeper had the moment of his life.
He picked the exact same piece of cloth that we bought and showed it to this guy and said “Virat ne Manyavar mei yahi pehna hai, waha 25 hazaar ka hai, yaha sirf 1700/metre”(Manyavar is selling it at INR 25k, here you’re getting the same thing at INR 1700/metre’’) and further asked me to show him Virat’s pic.
The guy’s sister got excited and was convinced at once (Maybe because a lot of girls love Virat) and asked her brother to buy it for his wedding.
They happily bought the 3 meter cloth at INR 1700/meter without any negotiation i.e. INR 5100 for the same piece of cloth for which we paid around INR 1400.

现在是诀窍部分:
我们做完这些之后,另一位顾客(一个带着哥哥的女孩)走进了他的陈列室,请店主给他哥哥推荐一些好东西。
他问那人他想穿什么,那人说“给我看一些民族的东西.
在那里,店主度过了他生命中的一刻。
他挑了一块和我们买的一模一样的布给这个人看,说“Manyavar以2.5万卢比/米的价格出售,在我这里你以1700卢比/米的价格买到了同样的东西),还让我给他看Virat Kohli的照片。
这名男子的妹妹很兴奋,并立刻被说服(可能是因为很多女孩都喜欢Virat),并让她的哥哥为他的婚礼买了它。
他们很高兴地以1700卢比/米的价格购买了3米的布料,没有还任何价,即5100卢比(而我支付1400卢比)购买同一种布料。

There are a lot of incidences like these that i can share but i hope a lot of people might have got the message.
There have been instances where a shopkeeper has sold a INR 1100 saree at INR 5500 just by repacking it in a different Box.
So clothing is a different business altogether, because everything looks same at times and it becomes difficult for a laymen to differentiate between the two.
PS :- Always try and bargain as much as you can in a retail outlet. You can save thousands of rupees on a single dress.
PS 2 :- Women in particular are easily exploited as they are more tempted to buy the dress they like at any cost and become a easy target for shopkeepers.
A golden advice for all :- When nothing works while bargaining, just say these beautiful lines- “My uncle/brother owns a retail cloth shop and i know how much profit you guys make”. The shopkeeper will instantly mark down the price by 15–20% after hearing this. This works every f*cking time.
So next time you go out shopping for your mother, brother or anyone, you know what to do :)

我可以分享很多类似的事件,但我希望很多人都能得到这个信息。
曾经有过这样的例子:一位店主只需将1100卢比的纱丽重新包装在另一个盒子里,就可以以5500卢比的价格售出。
因此,服装业是一个完全不同的行业,因为有时所有东西看起来都一样,对于外行人来说很难区分两者。
附言1:在零售商店里,要尽量讨价还价。一件连衣裙可以省下数千卢比。
附言2:女性尤其容易被剥削,因为她们更容易不惜任何代价购买自己喜欢的衣服,成为店主的目标。
给大家一个金科玉律:当讨价还价时怎么都不管用的时候,就说这些漂亮的台词:“我叔叔/哥哥开了一家零售布店,我知道你们赚了多少钱。”。店主听到后会立即降价15-20%。每次都是这样。
所以下次你出去为你的母亲、兄弟或任何人购物时,你知道该怎么做了。

A regular morning, i left home to go to clinic. On the way, i hear some abnormal sound from the front of the car, which i easily recognised as coming from radiator fan. I stopped the car and opened the hood. The fan was loose and was getting stuck to the radiator amd thus the noise.
I somehow took the car to the fiat authorised service centre. The service advisor had a look and advised that i will need to change the whole fan assembly as it is broken and will cost approx 14000rs. I asked him to check it whether it can be repaired or only the fan may be replaced as the motor was fine. He said, no it only comes as a whole assembly. I had no choice, so reluctantly agreed.
They took my car inside and removed the old fan assembly and started putting a new one.
After some time, i went inside to check on them and asked for my old assembly. They had already removed it from the scene. It wasn't near my car. Someone had already taken it away. I asked them to give it to me. They said they have thrown it in the junk as it was a waste. I was already smelling a rat.
I told them that I wasn't going to pay unless i got my old part back as it was my property and however useless it may be, they have no right to discard it. Then someone brought it back from where it was carefully hidden behind another car .
I kept it in my car boot. The mechanics there were visibly disappointed with that.

一个普通的早晨,我离开家去诊所。在路上,我听到汽车的前面有些不正常的声音,我很轻易辨认出声音是来自散热器风扇。我停下车,打开引擎盖。风扇松了,卡在散热器上,因此发出了噪音。
我不知怎么把车开到了菲亚特授权服务中心。服务顾问看了一下,建议我更换整个风扇总成,因为它坏了,成本约为14000卢比。我让他检查是否可以修理,或者是否可以只更换风扇,因为马达很好。他说,没办法,只能更换总成。我别无选择,所以勉强同意了。
他们把我的车开进车里,拆下旧的风扇总成,开始装一个新的。
过了一段时间,我进去并要求查看我的散热器。他们已经把它从我的车附近的现场转移走了,它不在,有人已经把它拿走了。我让他们把它给我,他们说他们把它扔进了垃圾桶,因为它是一种废品,我已经闻到老鼠的味道了。
我告诉他们,除非我拿回我的旧零件,否则我不会付款,因为这是我的财产—不管它有多无用,他们都无权丢弃它。然后有人把它从另一辆车后面小心地藏起来的地方拿了回来。
我把它放在汽车行李箱里。那里的维修师显然对此感到失望。

By then the car had been repaired, old part kept in boot, they took my car for cleaning.
Bill prepared, reluctantly i was about to pay the bill. Reluctant because i wasn't somehow not too convinced with the amount that i had to spend. Back of my mind, i just felt something was not right.
So before paying, i asked the service advisor to show me the old part and tell me what was the problem in that.
It consists of a fan motor in a frx and a fan held together by a nut.
In my old assembly the fan had separated from the motor.
When i asked him to show me the problem, The advisor said, the fan had broken. I checked the fan, I couldn't find anything broken. He surely didn't look too happy with that.
He tried to throw some more shit to me that the screw threads are damaged and the motor is damaged. I asked him to check it infront of me. The motor worked fine. The threads were fine, the fan fitted properly over the motor and had no apparent problem.

到那时汽车已经修好了,旧的部分放在后备箱里,他们把我的车拿去清洗。
账单准备好了,我很不情愿地就要付账了。不情愿是因为我不太相信我必须花费的金额。回想起来,我只是觉得有些不对劲。
所以在付款之前,我请服务顾问给我看旧零件,并告诉我其中有什么问题。
它由机架中的风扇电机和由螺母固定在一起的风扇组成。
在我的旧总成中,风扇与马达已经分离了。
当我让他给我看问题时,顾问说,风扇坏了。我检查了风扇,没有发现任何东西坏了。他看起来不太高兴。
他试图向我解释更多的东西,说螺纹损坏了,马达也损坏了。我让他在我面前检查一下。马达运转良好。螺纹良好,风扇正确安装在电机上,没有明显问题。

Only one part was missing. The nut which connects the fan to motor. Probably it must have gotten loose and fallen off somewhere.
I went to the manager and told him all that happened. Even after that, the supervisor kept trying to convince me that the motor is weak and will fail in few days and that they don't have any screw in stock as it is not available separately and i need to buy whole assembly only.
Now i sure wasn't going to buy any of their nonsense. I told him to just put back the old fan assembly in my car . The manager told them to put a screw and fit it back. Then within a minute they were able to find a nut and fit it back in my car. I was just too happy to have marginally escaped from a scam trap.
it has been almost a year and its been working perfectly.
The moral of the story is: Never believe what the service advisors tell you. Keep yourself aware of things and be vigilant.Always carry back your old spare parts. It may save you lot of money.

只少了连接风扇和电机的螺母。可能它一定是在什么地方松了下来。
我去找经理,把发生的一切都告诉了他。即使在那之后,主管仍然试图说服我,电机很差劲,几天后就会出现故障,而且他们没有任何螺丝的库存,因为它无法单独提供,我只能购买整个总成。
现在我肯定不会相信他们的胡说八道。我告诉他把旧风扇总成放回我车里。经理叫他们把螺丝钉放回去。不到一分钟,他们就找到了一个螺母,把它装回了我的车里。我太高兴了,因为我从一个骗局的陷阱中侥幸逃脱了。
这件事已经快一年了,那散热器总成一直在完美地工作。
这个故事的寓意是:永远不要相信服务顾问告诉你的话。保持警觉,保持警惕。一定要把旧零件带回去,这可能会帮你省很多钱。

One cheap business tactic I faced was when I travelled to Manali. I booked a hotel for around 700 rs per room from AirBnB for 3 days. I travelled all the way from Bangalore to Delhi, and from there to Manali in a bus. By the time I reached it was around 8pm and dark. I asked the driver to go to the location mentioned in Airbnb. However, once i reached, there is no hotel, nothing, just bare land.
Finally I called up the host and she(mind you it’s a “she”) directed me to some fancy hotel. After reaching, they(her male servants) so politely carried my bag and showed me “my” room. Once I unpacked and had my dinner, the lady in the story came and told me the charges are extra for the room and it’s at 2.5 k per day instead of 700rs. And mind you, no heater, no wifi, no nothing.
When I asked her where the room I booked was, (this is after I asked my taxi to leave), she said it’s around 4kms from here and you need to call another taxi. I called another taxi and the place mentioned was nothing like as described. Also there’s no one leaving anywhere near that remote area and it’s so inside the village you can’t even have basic necessities carried out. On top of that the male servant threatened that he won’t be able to give any room service in that remote area and demanded me take a room in the fancy place. Out of options, I choose to stay fancy for one day(paying out my entire budget for 3 days of stay). The very next day I checked out, paying 2.7k for one day(300 for heater).

我面临的一个廉价商业策略是去马纳利旅行。我从AirBnB(一个网站)预订了一家酒店,每间700卢比,住了三天。我从班加罗尔一路旅行到德里,然后坐公共汽车从那里到马纳利。当我到达的时候,已经是晚上8点左右,天黑了。我让司机去Airbnb提到的地点。然而,一旦我到达,没有发现旅馆,什么也没有,只有一片空旷的土地。
最后我给主办者打了电话,她(请注意,这是一个“她”)带我去了一家高档酒店。到达后,他们(她的男姓服务人员)非常礼貌地拿着我的包,向我展示了“我的”房间。当我打开行李吃晚饭时,故事中的那位女士过来告诉我,房间的费用是额外的,每天2500卢布,而不是700卢比。请注意,没有加热器,没有wifi,什么都没有。
当我问她我预订的房间在哪里时(这是在我的叫出租车离开后),她说离这里大约4公里,你需要叫另一辆出租车。 我又叫了一辆出租车,上面提到的那个地方完全不像我描述的那样。而且,没有人离开那个偏远地区,村子里连基本的生活必需品都买不到。最重要的是,男服务员威胁说,他将无法在那个偏远地区提供任何客房服务,并要求我住在一个豪华的地方。在别无选择的情况下,我选择了奢华的一天(支付了我三天的全部预算)。第二天我就退房了,一天付了2700卢布(300卢布取暖器费用)。

Thanks to AirBnB, I got my third day of booking refunded, so I ended up paying 1.5k which is not so much considering I escaped a huge scam. I left Manali then and there the very next day, after a visit to the so longed Snow mountains.
People like these deter the growth of beautiful tourist places like Manali.
The hotel was Himalayan Chalet. They have multiple branches across Manali and scam solo/inexperienced travellers through such dirty tactics.

由于在AirBnB定方,我第三天的预订款退款了,所以我最终支付了1500卢布,这与我逃过了一个巨大的骗局并没有多大关系。在参观了漫长的雪山之后,第二天我就离开了马纳利。
这些人阻碍了像马纳利这样美丽的旅游景点的发展
这家旅馆是喜玛拉雅山小木屋(Himalayan Chalet)。他们在马纳利有多家分店,并通过这种卑鄙的策略欺骗独行/无经验的旅行者。
