Employee admits cheating hotel out of £16,000
A debt-ridden hotel worker who was struggling with payday loans cheated her bosses out of more than £16,000 so she could keep up with her repayments, a court was told today.
Stacy Seabourne, 41, made bogus refunds to her own debit cards from the Tewkesbury Park Hotel where she was employed as meetings and golf co-ordinator, Gloucester crown court was told.
She had got into such bad financial difficulties that she had been taking out new high interest loans to make the repayments on earlier payday loans, the court heard.
Seabourne, of Sydwall rd, Hereford, admitted that between 24th Jan and 23rd August 2017 she made a false representation involving 17 transactions on debit cards belonging to herself and a family member.
