Subject: A surprise from Holiday Inn on use of SSNs
I just found out that Holiday Inn uses your Social Security Number as your
"frequent stayer" account number. I called to enroll in the program, found
out that I already was enrolled (11/95)) and that my account number was my
SSN! No, they can't change your number now, but plan to do so later in the
year for all "old" accounts that use the SSN.
Can they have been that electronically clueless as recently as November
1995? Looks like it.
