Cancellation fee

Austria

Booked an apartment in Austria on Booking.com. It was not necessary to enter the card during the booking process, because. cash payment on the spot. It is written that if I do not show up, I will be charged a fine of 100%.
Will they really take a fine from me if I cancel or do not check in, and how will this happen if I did not indicate the card number?

Answer

You will lose your Booking account and that's it.
but, i would try to contact the hotel and cancel the booking before doing the scam. karma is such a thing...
often hotels go to a meeting. I recently encountered a similar situation - there was a non-refundable booking, which became irrelevant due to the postponement of the travel date. contacted the Booking support service, they contacted the hotel and resolved the issue.

No money will be withdrawn, and the account on Booking will not suffer from this.

But it's still worth canceling the reservation and apologizing to the hotel.

The fine will not be removed in any way, unless you then add a card and even then there may be a "surprise".
