{"coverage_note":"Five discrepancy categories were checked for ihg.com: (1) pricing/hidden fees \u2014 searches found no regulatory action or verified complaint naming IHG; an IHG spokesperson confirmed full-price disclosure alignment with FTC Junk Fees Rule requirements; (2) availability \u2014 searches returned only IHG's own pages and unrelated articles, with no independent evidence of ghost inventory or bait-and-switch patterns at checkout; (3) identity/merchant-of-record \u2014 IHG's franchise structure is publicly disclosed, but no regulatory filings or verified consumer complaints documenting liability deflection to franchisees were found; (4) cancellation/refund policy enforcement \u2014 searches surfaced IHG's standard policy framework but found no evidence of a gap between stated and enforced terms; (5) undisclosed booking constraints \u2014 no independently verified reports of hidden platform limitations affecting transaction completion were found. All five categories returned no findings meeting the inclusion bar; no scan was blocked or missing, though results in categories 2 and 5 were limited largely to IHG's own documentation.","human_handoff_required_for":[],"record_verification":{"last_checked_agentic_scan":"2026-06-28","last_checked_human_verified":null},"vendor_id":"ihg","verified_discrepancies":[]}
