To answer your question m-dot, the "Movielink" movie system does have a master remote control which allows viewing of the movie without a charge being automatically going on your account.
I used to work as a concierge and the master remote went walkies at least a few times with departing staff.
The movies are charged to your room account via an interface and can only be reversed if there is a fault.
If you get your hands on the red remote, movies will be free.

Are we talking about the system with the big remote with a green button and a red button for the pay-flicks?
If so, there's a way to do it without the "brain-bug" remote.
You have to take off the front and invert the rubber keypad so as to provide a "button" to press a contact that has no actual external "button" (reason being it is for technical use). You can then enter the technical functions and screw around and eventually get a free flick but I don't know which functions or how to get there through the menu.
Or is it the system with the long skinny remote??? Can't remember but they reckon it works. The big remote I think. I tried it once because that sort of scam appeals to me but it was ages ago.
Would be embarrassing to get caught.
If it's the old system with the rectangular remote with the white "pay" button, I know how to do it and it's piss-easy. But they're very uncommon these days.
