Robert Gonzales says he was lured in by "deceptive pricing" at Greece's DK Oyster before being slapped with a giant charge on his credit card. 2 Robert and his wife were lured in by the promise of free sunbeds Credit: Robert Gonzales 2 But he was left fuming at the price of the squid - charged by the gram Credit: Robert Gonzales The holidaymaker says he and his wife were told by staff they could have free use of a sunbed and an umbrella - so long as they bought at least two drinks. He says they decided to splash out a few tipples, some calamari and a bottle of water. But when the bill came, they were horrified to see they had been billed an eye-watering 1,616 euros (£1,400) as they had been charged by the gram for the squid snack. Robert has slammed the venue as a "total scam" on review site Restaurant Guru. He wrote: "Do not go to this beach bar establishment. "They offered free use of a day bed and umbrella for a two drink minimum, which when the bill came cost $116 euros. "For a single order of Calamari we were charged $148 euros (small print on menu says they charge by the gram, who does that?). "Total bill for the two drinks, calamari, and one bottled water was $288 euros. "Then when the credit card charge hit my account it was for $1,616 euros. It comes after another tourist vowed never to return to the bar after being hit with a staggering bill for £450. Amber Pace, 25, said she and a pal decided to spend the day at the restaurant, unaware that the venue has been accused of ripping off tourists. After ordering two drinks and two appetisers, the two pals could not believe they were hit with the ridiculous bill of £450 (€520). Amber, from New York, told The Sun: "I just saw the price £17 (€20) for the fried calamari I got and my friend got the king crab legs that sai){kind=link}
