A group of young British men have been turfed out of a hotel for refusing to pay £1,500 in the wake of the Thomas Cook collapse, local media reported.
The five men, whose identities have not been disclosed, were made to leave the hotel in Magaluf on the Spanish island of Majorca after they were told to pay for the entire amount of their stay.
The Manchester lads were visited by a hotel security person who said they had to pay the complete price of their holiday, €1,800 (£1,590), or leave, local media outlet 'Ultima Hora' reported.
After they refused, they were reportedly told to leave the hotel within two hours despite having one more night left on their reservation.
Thomas Cook typically paid hotels 60 to 90 days after their clients' stay.
The young men have now ended their holiday leaving for England on Tuesday.
The Magaluf hotel is thought to be not the only one on the island that is charging tourists from Thomas Cook.
Local reports suggest the Hotel Playa Golf began charging tourists when news broke that the tour operator had gone bust.
The director of the hotel, Jaume Mas, explained to 'Ultima Hora': "We are charging all services since we don't want to continue accumulating the losses we have this summer."
He added that it is neither the customers' nor the hotel's fault.
The news of the bankruptcy of the tour operator has unleashed a wave of solidarity in Magaluf, with many bars and pubs offering food and drinks to those who were affected by the collapse.
The owner of one of those bars, who preferred not to disclose his identity, heard the news about the five Brits and paid around €200 for a night in a hotel for them, their dinner and few beers for the price of around 200
