    We're planning on taking a trip and purchased a vacation package for flights, multiple hotels and a rental car about a month ago and just got email saying that something was getting refunded which was very worrisome so we decided to call them and realized that they had only rented the car for 3 of the days of our 2 week trip even though we had put the right dates into the search. They're trying to make us add an entirely new rental for the remaining time that we're there, but at a much higher price than the rate of our package!!! We had budgeted very carefully and now are going to have to cancel everything because we cannot afford to pay 3 times as much for the same car!!

    Rented a car from Priceline scheduled to pick up a small car thru Easirent. Got there at 7 office closed. Walked around found someone. I get the rental it had 108,000 miles on the car. They wanted an addition 150 and took another deposit of 265. Filthy car horrible stench all scratched chopped window. All cars are from out of state so most likely all salvaged. I still attempted to drive. As I was leaving the brakes felt weird. I took it back waited 30 min only to get a beater Sentra with 212,000 miles. I didn’t feel safe.. Cancelled and asked for refund. They refused.

      Worst company in the world. DO NOT USE. STAY AWAY. I was told I would have to pay 200.00 to get a refund for service I never received and I have been trying for over a month.

      Worst customer service and management. They are inflexible with cancellation of any flight changes. I wasn’t asking for a refund I was asking for a cancellation of an outbound flight but keep the return flight. They don’t care and won’t work with their customers. I would have given no stars but that wasn’t an option. Save the headache and stress and go through the airline directly. When you compare the airline costs to Priceline there’s not much difference and the airline will work with you.

      Priceline made my booking wrong; I booked two queens but it is a king-bed room. They made it wrong multiple times. They never say sorry or notified the customer on that. Their service is the worst.

      Priceline is the absolute worse and a scam. I booked a hotel stay and they have it listed as the same name for two separate locations. After I booked spent over 500$ they were unwilling to assist with getting it corrected to the location that I was at already and just needing to extend. They made me have to pack up my things and go to a whole other location as they were not willing to refund cancel or get a resolution after I have spent that (and a previous 700 on other rooms). They lie. Don’t call back. Leave you on hold hang up. All kind of bad business practices then they say we have a partner but that’s not listed when they process payments and take your money. Never using Priceline again. BAN PRICELINE. They are a scam.

      They booked 4 rooms from Motel 6, Chattanooga Airport which did not exist. They did not give me a usable onsite, frontdesk phone # and they did not give Motel 6 even a slightly close phone no. with which the motel could warn me. Priceline Trip #**, Motel confirmation #** (for 4 double queen rooms). Because I had had a bad, similar experience with Priceline a couple of years ago, I always speak to the hotel directly to be sure I have what Priceline says they booked for me. I spent probably an hour trying to find a phone number for the location's front desk. As I also wished to request one of the four double queen rooms be switched to a king if possible, when I finally reached a voice which confirmed the change had been made (though I kinda' knew I wasn't speaking an onsite person), I accepted that my reservation was confirmed.

      Twelve of my family reached the motel, at about 3:30-4:00, to leave a sick son-in-law and a dog, while we went to a 5:30 tour of Ruby Falls ($360 for those timed entry tickets). We found they had been overbooked and had not been given a valid phone no. from Priceline so they could reach us earlier in the day. Then the clerk told me I needed to reach out to Priceline for a refund.

      This was SUCH a horrible experience. Scrambling to find more rooms in a hurry (which cost us twice as much), a mad son-in-law, five anxious grandchildren. I will never even open Priceline's website again, nor will I stay at a Motel 6. A few days later I spent at least three hours on the phone trying to find out how such a bad, bad thing could happen and to explain how angry I was to both parties. I had lots of foreign born accents and false promises that someone would call me back. A front desk clerk named Kin, was most sympathetic with our angst, but the closest I got to an apology from any of the other 8-10 people I (finally) spoke with was an AI saying, "Yes, of course you are upset . . . " Maybe that will get funnier the longer it gets from this disaster.

      I don't know what happened to Priceline the last few years. The customer service is awful. Hard to get a hold of anyone from the actual corporation. The 3rd party is awful. It seems like a scam anymore. They are not informed of their own itineraries. A contact to the requested booking is all it takes if they do not have much info on their listing.

      We were going to my better half son's graduation. Booked through Priceline for the hotel for 2 nights. Day of check-in, our vehicle broke down. We called to cancel. It was about 1230pm. So we missed the son's graduation, lost time from work, and repaired our vehicle. Took forever to get the cancellation done and had to go to a supervisor. After haggling, was not going to get the 1st night back. But will the second night. So they said. Never got that refund. I've been contacting Priceline but their 3rd party over seas based booking and customer service, Travel Pass Group, is awful. They, supposedly, put a complaint in on my behalf, 2 weeks later. I have left messages at corporate office, 203-299-8000. There is no customer service there, so pick one. Weeks later, still no refund as I was told. I would not use Priceline anymore. It's a shame. We used to every now and then couple years ago and before. I wish all of you luck.

      ⭐☆☆☆☆ (0/5 Stars). I am extremely disappointed with Priceline and the way my booking issue was handled. I booked and paid over $1,000 for a four-night stay based on Priceline’s advertised room description and photos. The listing clearly showed a King Suite with Roll-In Shower and Sofa Bed, a 549-square-foot suite with a separate living area, kitchenette, dining area, and accommodations for up to four guests.

      When I arrived at the hotel, I was given a room that looked nothing like the room Priceline advertised. Instead of the spacious suite shown in the listing, I received what appeared to be a standard king room with a sofa. The advertised layout, space, and amenities were not present. To make matters worse, the sofa in the room was stained and appeared dirty.

      I immediately contacted Priceline for assistance. The first customer service representative called the hotel and later advised me that the hotel staff had been rude and uncooperative with him as well. He then transferred me to a supervisor. After I explained the situation and the differences between the advertised room and the room I received, the supervisor contacted the hotel and came back claiming the hotel was correct. At that point, Priceline completely failed me as a customer. Rather than addressing the obvious discrepancy between the advertised accommodations and what was provided, Priceline simply accepted the hotel’s response and refused to help.

      Consumers rely on Priceline’s descriptions and photos when making travel decisions. If the room being advertised is not the room being provided, that is misleading. Even worse, when a customer presents a legitimate complaint, Priceline should investigate and advocate for the customer instead of automatically siding with the hotel. I paid for the room Priceline advertised, not the room I received. Because of this experience, I will be filing complaints with the Better Business Bureau and other consumer protection agencies.

      I strongly recommend that travelers take screenshots of all room descriptions and photos before booking through Priceline. This experience has completely eroded my trust in the company. Very disappointed. Priceline’s customer service and commitment to customer satisfaction were nowhere to be found when I needed them most.
