I would trust the TS with my card/passport but sorry not a third party. I think the TS may have been hit with people giving wrong details when they have given credit card details (trying to be clever?) because when they asked (and I gave them the additional information)I was notified by my CC Company that they had checked my account for the full amount due. After 48 hours it lapsed but just be aware that your card account would have been that much short for a couple of days.
I do not blame the TS who are just trying to cover themselves, The hotel is often fully booked and if someone does not turn up and his credit card details are false that is a loss of money for them.
Yes the price of the super delux have gone up from the web site prices. Still well worth it though.
