I tried that, but had no luck. Slovenian embassy was pretty adamant. My original hotel in Slovenia reported them when I cancelled my booking. Anyway, I exited Switzerland without any issue. They didn’t even mention anything on the exit. I’m not sure what the repercussions would be now, if I apply for Schengen again. Does anyone know?
There is a record of your revoked visa shared between Schengen countries that may prompt further scrutiny when you apply for your next visa. At the same time, if the visa has really been “revoked” and not “annulled”, it’s not so bad as only the latter suggests deception and the former is more of a technical measure (I don’t think it was really intended to be used in the way it was here).
The reason you have to apply for a visa with the country that is the main destination of your trip is to spread the workload, and to counter visa shopping. Since you violated the rules your visa got revoked. Because currently there is not a lot of data being exchanged between countries on visa issues you got away with it, but you may not get way with this in the future, when the entry/exit system becomes operational.
And what will you answer when you apply for a visa and one of the questions is "have you ever been refused a visa, or had one revoked"?
