    Booked a trip by accident because their checkout had “Continue to review order”, which indicated that you’d be able to review the order on the next page. They ended up charging me and when I called cancel immediately they told me their vendor (the middle man to the middle man) won’t refund me.

    I booked a room on Priceline website. I was following direction, put all information in it. I picked 1, 2, 3 till 4 at person window. And then credit card and then confirmed. Within couple minutes, I tracked my email. Everything was correct by the person has 2 in it. I believe that’s the system website has a problem. I call back to Priceline away. Priceline want me to call Holiday Inn Express. Holiday Inn told me $35 dollar per person per night for extra if I want more than two person checking in. I am not happy which system was made a mistakes put on me. So I keep calling ~keep calling~, calling almost all of the department and then no one answer. Finally I get some refund department. They said they can refund me whole money but charge me $300 for penalty. What!!! I don’t think so. I haven’t wrong why I pay penalty for.?

    I will never use PRICELINE AGAIN. We went to rent a car in Hawaii as our stay was extended. I booked one on line not knowing it was Priceline. Found out that car was not located at the airport so wanted to cancel but nobody was ever to help out? I actually went to the car rental place to cancel and they said I had to do it through PRICELINE. COULD NOT REACH ANYBODY AND NO PHONE NUMBER TO BE FOUND. So they charged me for a car I never picked up. I have disputed it twice with no luck. So it is damn crazy that I have to pay for something I never got. PRICELINE IS HORRIBLE.

    I made my resort reservation with Priceline at the Aston At Poipu Kai & received my confirmation #**. Because we had non refundable plane tickets & hotel reservations before and after this stay I even called their customer care team to get reassured this was a firm reservation. The agent assured me it was solid & a done deal (I even wrote a very positive review for her giving me the peace of mind that everything was confirmed).

    Ten days later (8 days before we were to travel) I received a call from Priceline telling us sorry, there were no rooms available at this resort for the days we had confirmation! The man said we can help you get another reservation on another part of the island but not in Poipu as there is nothing available. This will be our 20th anniversary and it meant something special to my wife & I to stay in Poipu Hawaii again. I will never use Priceline again and do not recommend anyone else does as well. Now we have 8 days to find lodging on Kauai during high season, expensive & very limited.

    I booked a hotel using Priceline; it was an express deal. After I booked the hotel, I received the hotel and hotel address—this was not in the location they listed. It was literally several miles from where they had it listed. I called Priceline.com to cancel the reservation, and they informed me that I had to pay a cancellation fee of $125. The initial cancellation fee was $200. I begged the rep to reduce the fee because it was their error. They were unwavering. I don't recommend using priceline.com.

    My experience with Priceline has been unsatisfactory. I purchased insurance with the expectation that it would cover emergencies; however, I found that claiming a refund was excessively complicated. To have my request considered, I was required to provide a doctor's note containing personal medical details. This requirement seems unreasonable, especially when one purchases insurance for protection against unforeseen circumstances.

    Additionally, my interactions with customer service were disappointing. Communication was often unclear, and I encountered representatives who appeared uninformed about the policies. I have been attempting to resolve this issue for two weeks without success. Based on my experience, I recommend that travelers consider booking directly through airlines or hotels, as this approach may provide better deals and more straightforward terms. I would advise against using Priceline or their insurance.

    Buying a travel package from Priceline is horrible and the change for illness policies are worthless to the consumer. I went through the experience and I recommend everyone not to buy third party travel, it is better most of the time to go with the same airline. Jetblue is a cheap airline with poor customer service too. So read this and consider to not use priceline never.

    I booked a trip to the Bahamas. Even paid for the vacation protection. Priceline verified and Took payment. Jet Blue to fly there and Bahama to fly back. The protection plan clearly stated for any reason of cancelation I was covered. Things came up and I looked to cancel. What a horrible runaround. After an hour or more online I finally found a Numbers to call. Called and was told it had to go through a claim with Xcover. Tried on the website for xcover, it wouldn't take my info. Finally got it to go through. Rejected, I have to go through— Priceline. Big shock! Back and forth. After hours of this runaround I guess I will have to try again tomorrow.

    They have the worst policies on their platform. Who would be cancelling within 24 hours of the booking? Either the plans would change before 24 hours of 48 hours or on the day of the booking. They say in their policies that they will give a full refund but It comes within 24 hours of booking the service. Who the heck made these policies? Are they simply using that money to grow? If this is the way to grow, I'm sorry to say that you will never succeed in this space and soon you will shut down. I wish I had a 0 in the rating.

    I booked a vacation package through Priceline (Trip Number: **) and just five minutes after booking, I realized that I had made a mistake with the reservation date—My trip was actually scheduled for the following day. I immediately contacted Priceline customer service and explained the situation. The representative assured me that it would not be a problem and that the best solution was to cancel everything and rebook with the correct date, as Priceline would issue a refund. Following their advice, I canceled the initial booking and made a new reservation with the correct date. However, I was shocked to find out that Priceline only refunded the flight and car rental but refused to refund the hotel, despite their own representative assuring me that the full refund would be processed.

    To make matters worse, I contacted the hotel directly, and they confirmed that they had no issue with issuing a refund. However, since the booking was made through Priceline, the hotel cannot process the refund directly, as Priceline is the one handling the transaction. In other words, Priceline itself assured me that I would receive a refund, the hotel confirmed that they would allow the cancellation, but Priceline is still refusing to return my money. This shows a lack of transparency and disregard for customer service. As a loyal customer, I expected a more honest and flexible approach, especially in a case where the mistake was noticed and corrected within minutes. If Priceline does not resolve this issue and continues to refuse the hotel refund, I will take further steps to report this practice on other platforms and reconsider using their services in the future. I expect an immediate resolution.

    Terrible customer service. Claim they cannot make any edits to your reservation once it has been completed. When we called the hotel they said they cannot make changes and it has to be made directly through Priceline. However, when you call priceline all they do is "submit a request" and will not guarantee the changes will be made. Current system allows for no modifications to be made, terrible service/customer service. I would avoid.

    DO NOT rent cars through Priceline without a backup plan!

When I spoke with Priceline customer care they confirmed to me they have no control of availability of cars. This is strictly controlled by the rental company. Thank goodness it was early enough in the day that I was able to rent an Uber. Unexpected cost, extreme inconvenience and overall poor business practice. They should warn people.

    I will not be using Priceline again. I purchased 2 tickets on economy class which included checked bags. At the airport my class had been changed by Priceline to basic economy so I had to pay $80.00 to check our 2 bags and will be paying $80.00 again on the way home. I called Priceline’s Customer service and after many many tries to get to a real person, I finally was able to talk to a representative but got no results. So my advice is.. If you choose to buy from Priceline, just buy Basic Economy class so you only have to pay for your bags once.

It ended up costing us $200 extra dollars because they would not expect our insurance. Additionally, I thought I was booking directly from the airport but instead had to be shuttled 20 min away.

    Please know that if there is a mistake in your name - after you hit submit - you will be screwed - according to Priceline there is nothing that can be done to fix the problem - even 5 months in advance. Pretty sure - I have a ticket I cannot use - and likely will not be able to book the same flight for my wife, same cost, etc - just because AutoFill used her Maiden name and not Married Name. Yes - I do take ownership for not realizing the error - but as easy as they take their "share" you would think they can fix this. There is a code allowed by Airlines for 3rd parties to change Last Names (with no other errors [DOB and First Name] - SMH.

    Terrible experience with cancellation 30 minutes after booking even with the travel insurance. The lesson cost me 300.00 and the service is a waste because you could book yourself and have more control over your reservations. The fact that I bought travel insurance in case I had to cancel was useless as they still charge you fees and rental car apparently does not apply when renting a vehicle through them. I am disputing the charges and will never use them again.

    After I accidentally booked my trip one day further out than I planned on staying I was able to remedy it with Priceline but it was not easy until it was. I did not know how long I was staying due to health issues either so I piddled for the middle and chose a date blindly like Russian Roulette. That's the way I leave. I suffer from PTSD for several reasons. I booked my flight through Priceline. Not my hotel. I did get a rental car but I had to end up ubering because of web service until I was able to connect. That was at the motel I stayed at. Level 8/ Super 8 Motel. I'll include the review and address here to. Priceline is easy to use but it doesn't always automatically connect and I prefer to use a safe network. On with the motel....

    I have stayed here in the past. Nice Motel. Great staff. They're renovating. My only issue was that the manager said there is breakfast in the morning at check in but there isn't but we all lie. So what, small price for a great stay. Additionally, there is a rental fee but you get that back at check out. They don't tell you when you check in but it's a language barrier perhaps or the way it's explained. Gets lost in interpretation. Manager called my room and apologized. I was heated to say the least. I felt hella better after she called. Enjoyed the rest of my stay.

    Cleaning staff is helpful but many don't speak English- go to the office for assistance. Quick trip - health related. I accidentally booked my trip an extra day out but was able to get a flight one day earlier. Did not accomplish what I needed to do. LA at least Inglewood is not as busy as it used to be but I've said that previously. It's a shame. Beautiful city with much to do. Intuit and Kia stadiums are great. Lots of entertainment. Best part about the town, I was able to walk freely both day and night without problems. I caught a bus back to the airport the day I was returning home. Easy peasy - short walk from the hotel but I only had a purse and bookbag. It's doable with a small suitcase or duffel in my opinion.

    I booked a hotel through Priceline that was a combo deal with a flight from Spirit Air. The hotel is listed on Priceline as 4 stars. You can even see from my photo it has 4 stars. The pictures looked great. When I arrived the hotel was NOTHING like the listing so I called Priceline and let them know there were roaches in the room and trash just swept in piles in the hotel hallway as well as general construction and moldy smell throughout the hotel. The hotel would not refund me due to the fact I had not canceled the day before check in per their policy. I had expected Priceline to help since their site is where I had booked and they had a scam of a misrepresentation of the hotel.

    I was told by the first employee I spoke with they could give me a 50% refund if the hotel wouldn’t refund me the next day when the manager was in, but the next day I was told that wasn’t possible and they could only give me a 20% coupon for a future booking. I obviously had to rent a room at another hotel for the 2 nights I was traveling so I basically just lost hundreds of dollars on the first hotel booking because they would not refund me. All of the customer service people were very difficult to understand due to being located in a foreign call center and did not seem to care at all about the situation. This was a special trip for my daughter and it really was quite upsetting. I will never again use or recommend Priceline due to the horrible false advertising on their website and their lack of standing by the products they are selling people.

They cobbled flights together between Delta and Virgin, but somehow Virgin owns the whole ticket. Checking online for price difference, I found something palatable. However, the flight I was offered was more than that which I found online. To change ($199) and difference (700) after tax and fees. Insurance only covers Covid, which is over. There is NO option to use partial or full credit toward any future flight. I had to know dates of future flight and arrangements have to be finalized before the original date of flight.

    Be diligent when booking through Priceline. The confirmation process asks for a credit card to make your reservation, just like any other hotel/car rental/booking. What I didn't realize (and what they did not make clear) is that you are paying hundreds of dollars just to use Priceline's website, and will later be charged hundreds of dollars by Hertz (or whatever rental you go through) to pay for the fees associated with the rental car. Up front I was under the impression that the quote given by Priceline is what I would pay, not being told that Hertz would pile on their own slew of charges for the same reservation. There are a bunch of hidden fees, and I honestly feel like I just got scammed by very misleading advertising. Do not use Priceline if you don't want to be swindled.

They also kept offering me rooms in hotels that were sold out. My phone finally died and I ended up having to find my own hotel. Will NEVER use Priceline again.

Then I did cancel my reservation and they would not refund me.

    Very Disappointed with Agent Z. ** and Priceline. I had a disappointing experience with Agent Z. ** when booking a cruise for me and my sisters. He provided a quote on Friday evening, and I told him I needed to confirm with my sisters before booking. He assured me that the price would not change and mentioned that if I wanted, I could book with another agent since my information was in the system. I made it clear that I would wait until he returned to work the following Tuesday (after the holiday) so that he could receive the credit for the booking.

    However, when I spoke with him on Tuesday, the price had increased by $700 compared to the original quote. Although he apologized and acknowledged it was his mistake, there was no effort to resolve the issue or adjust the price. He mentioned speaking to a supervisor, but ultimately, I received no follow-up email or acknowledgment of the matter from him or Priceline. I ended up going to Liberty Travel and securing the same cruise for the original price I was quoted by Priceline. This experience was both frustrating and unprofessional, and I am very disappointed with how Priceline handled the.

    If I could leave the stars blank I would. We rented a car through Priceline from Dollar Rent a car. I paid for a Premium car. I needed to tweak the reservation a little bit so I called Dollar and was advised any changes had to be done via Priceline. I reached out to Priceline and was advised I would have to cancel my reservation and remake one. It was a minor change so I just left the reservation as is. When I picked up my car I was downgraded to a lower class car, I said something to the agent but it fell on deaf ears so I decided I would just take it up with Priceline.

    When I called Priceline looking for a credit I was told I needed to deal with the rental agency. I explained that I paid Priceline and I am Priceline customer. Why should I call Dollar? They told me I needed to go to the Dollar website and fill out the complaint form. No such tab on the website as I checked while on the phone. They then told me I need to google dollar complaints. Nope I do not, I called and disputed charges. Never ever again will I use this shady company, I was warned by a co-worker not to use them, I should have listened.

    Our Horrible Experience at this hotel! Confirmation number **, Rodeway Inn South Miami-Coral Gables, 5959 SW 71st Street Miami FL 33143. We stayed only the night of the 17th of January. Here are the intolerable conditions under which we barely slept and withstood because had no other place to go at the moment.

    1. People in another room with a blaring loud TV, blasting all night.
    2. People running and laughing through the hallways at 2 and 3 in the morning.
    3. The toilet did not work properly and took a long time to flush.
    4. There was no refrigerator nor microwave in the room, a bare minimum in most hotels nowadays.
    5. The mattresses in the beds were literally sinking; we also found human hairs and clipped nails on the sheets.
    6. The stench of humidity and mold was super strong, and it made us, including our special needs daughter, start coughing.
    7. Everywhere you walked was full of water on the floor: hallways, the parking garage.

    8. The “hotel” looked and felt more like a half-way house, with shady looking characters milling around.

    How can a supposedly reputable company, like Priceline, not do their research of the premises they endorse in its platform. It is shameful, and abusive. WE WANT OUR MONEY REFUNDED, BECAUSE OF THIS AWFUL EXPERIENCE. And I will certainly post these comments as reviews everywhere I can!

I got off work at around 840 and arrived at the motel at 940pm. I noticed the room was dirty but figured I'd make the best of it then pick a different room the next night after being tired from working 13 hrs. I cleaned the tub then took a shower. There were no towels so I'm glad I had my own. Then I get out the shower and go to sink. I see a roach. I kill it and am getting more skeptical about my stay. I put my blanket over the bed and sit down drying off. I finish drying off and moisturizing then I see another roach. At this point I'm done so I start gathering my stuff and see a third roach. I go to front desk and the door is locked and the lady working act like she didn't notice me and wouldn't respond. So I try and find a way to contact Priceline.

    I couldn't get anyone when calling so did instant chat with them but all they would tell me was to call that number so I left the motel. I finally got someone from Priceline on the phone and he put me on hold forever just to reply, "The motel said since you went in the room they can not refund you." I have all the pictures of the nastiness of the room and roaches on the wall. I will never use Priceline again. Their company shouldn't even have motels this nasty on their platform.

    I have been using Priceline for many years that they call me a "gold member" not that it comes with any benefits. I am very disappointed with a recent transaction, which I would like to share to express my frustration and also to make others aware of a problem which is not clear. I purchased a round trip ticket from Dubai to Boston for an elderly family member with insurance. I was told by a priceline custom service member at the time of purchase that the ticket with insurance gives the option to make changes for unavoidable reasons including health problems, mechanical issues with the flight or flight cancellations. I paid the extra and purchased the insurance to have that option as my family member has some health issues.

    Two days before the departure of the return flight the family member got sick and I was advised by healthcare professional it's not safe for the person to travel. It would be very irresponsible to make the person travel inconveniencing herself and potentially making other passengers sick. I contacted priceline two days ahead of the return trip (Boston to Dubai) to make changes to the reservation and I was told that I can't do that as the ticket has been partially used meaning the ticket was used for one way (Dubai to Boston), which came as a total surprise to me.

    The insurance offered by priceline is confusing to say the least and in fact it seems like a scam. I would not recommend using it unless you get clarification on all different scenarios (which may be hard to imagine as life is full of surprises!). I don't see any advantage using priceline over other online sites where tickets can be purchased for just about the same price or even cheaper at times. This has been a very bad experience for me and will not use priceline anymore for my travels.

    Worst customer service and bad experience. I am writing to express my deep disappointment with the auto rental service I received from Hertz upon my arrival at San Antonio airport. Despite having a confirmed reservation for a Mid-Size SUV through Priceline, Hertz was dismissive and claimed that the issue lay with Priceline, stating that they had booked me into a small SUV in their system. In response, I contacted Priceline's customer service and was transferred to a supervisor. After a lengthy hold during which he discussed the matter with Hertz's ground staff, he informed me that they would address the issue internally. He also mentioned that he was initiating a refund and would send me an email regarding it.

    However, instead of receiving confirmation of my refund, I received multiple emails suggesting that I book with another company or through Priceline, promising reimbursement for the new booking. I inquired why, after waiting for over an hour at the Hertz rental counter, my reservation could not be transferred to Hertz or another provider based on my original booking. To my surprise, the supervisor raised his voice and stated he did not understand the issue, insisting that he was processing my refund but could not provide confirmation as it was documented. He then abruptly ended the call, stating he was done.

    This experience is unacceptable and reflects poorly on Priceline. The issues I encountered include:

    Refusal to honor my confirmed reservation.
    Lack of effort to accommodate my booking despite available Mid-Size SUVs.
    Dismissive attitude towards third-party reservations.
    Over an hour wasted with no resolution offered.

    Rude and unhelpful staff.

    The overall experience was frustrating and unprofessional. The inability of your team to provide a solution or even attempt to accommodate a confirmed reservation is unacceptable for a major car rental company. As a result of this poor service, I will not be using Hertz for future rentals. I urge you to address these issues at your San Antonio airport location to prevent similar experiences for other customers.

This seemed the case with multiple customers that were there at the same time. 3) After almost an hour on the phone we were able to get my husband's name on the insurance and started driving to find out that the tire light was on in the vehicle. We called the company. The guy who answered had an attitude and asked us if we have taken the tire to get it checked. We told him we just left and are turning back. 4) They proceeded to put air in the tire without checking it and wanted to send us on our way to which we refused and requested another vehicle. 5) The car had multiple scratches so we took picture before leaving since they did not mark those.

    This has been the worst experience of our trip, Juan (York Rental Co Assoc) at the front desk had the worse customer experience service ever. As our flight arrived I called the car rental to let them know we were ready for our car rental. After confirming our reservation a shuttle was sent to pick us up. As we arrived to the desk Juan wanted to charge us for additional days of insurance for not having vehicle in our possession due to our flight being canceled/delayed, my husband did not agree so Juan got an attitude and demeanor had changed. He asked me to call their customer service number and when I did he went into the next room and turned off the phone after seeing me call. He said my reservation was cancelled when it was not.

    I phoned Priceline who confirmed my reservation was still active, Juan denied it was and canceled my reservation knowing I was from out of town with no car and they lied and said his driver was the one who confirmed our reservation when the driver does not speak English. I asked for his manager and he stated he does not have her number and didn’t know of her work hours. Then he told us he didn’t know why our reservation was canceled after confirming it was booked. As we first arrived he already had signed paperwork ready to get on the road with the rental so unprofessional, disrespectful, wrong for what he did he needs to trained on how to treat customers. His service was disgusting. BBB does not approve this service or this business. How he treated me as a human at 6am was uncalled for. The front desk had the worse customer service.

    Our issue with Priceline is that they provided no corrective action other than offering a refund. This refund took more than 10 days and did nothing for us in the issue at hand. This provider was offered in the Priceline website and in my opinion it was Priceline’s job to ensure we had rental accommodation upon arrival-as we requested and paid for in advance of our trip. This was a total failure in Priceline’s part. We didn’t need a refund in 10 days, we needed a rental car that we paid for to be ready as stated in our contract.. The York Rental Car Company must be removed from the Priceline site and we deserve an apology and compensation from Priceline. This is a Priceline Failure.

    I made a purchase 9/17/24 for a hotel in SC for a wedding I was attending 9/28/24. I was suppose to check in 9/27/24. Unfortunately, hurricane Helene hit the night of 9/26/24 which wasn’t suppose to do much damage but it did and I was unable to drive from Georgia to South Carolina. Power was out, roads were closed due to the damage from the hurricane and I had to cancel my reservation. I called the hotel and explained and they were nice about it and explained a cancellation due to a natural disaster was acceptable however because I went through this company I had to cancel with them.

    I called and experienced the worst customer service. The representative was nonchalant and did not care because the cancellation was not made in an “appropriate” time. I cannot control the weather and there should be exceptions due to natural disasters. I never made it to SC but was still billed hundreds of dollars for a hotel in a state I never went to. This is unacceptable. How could I have known the level of damage this hurricane would cause?

    I have been a loyal Priceline customer for years, but I am deeply disappointed with how a recent issue was handled. I had to leave a 4-night trip one day early due to illness and notified Customer Service two days in advance. Despite multiple calls and follow-ups, I was given conflicting information and the runaround. Ultimately, I was denied a refund for the unused night, with the third party citing insufficient notice despite my proactive efforts. The lack of clear communication and accountability is unacceptable.

    I made the mistake of selecting the Priceline 4 star hotel in Miami Beach, for January 2025, without knowing the name for a reduced price. In November, while on a separate trip, I went to see the Clinton Hotel pool area, that Priceline calls 4 star. The place is a total dump. I called in November, stating that I wished to cancel for a full refund (as trip was 2 months out and this hotel was in no way a 4 star hotel). On December 5th I sent Priceline the images of the Pool and Yelp reviews that rate it as a 2.3 Star. **. I had not heard back from Priceline. Today December 30th I called again, and still no resolution.

    If I could give a zero I would! The absolute worst company I have ever dealt with. I needed to modify a reservation for two nights at a hotel to one night. It was $400. They told me they could cancel my reservation and give me one night for $1000. I called in plenty of time to do this and it was absurd to tell me this. I called the hotel who said they should be able to refund you the money and we can change reservation on our end. I called back Priceline and first person said I had a flight booked to Turkey! I have never been or plan on going to Turkey! So I called back again. They refused to refund me for the one night. I was in tears saying I could not make the first night. They didn’t care.

    I have been a long time Priceline user, and usually the experience is wonderful. My most recent booking has changed my opinion, and I will not ever utilize Priceline again. I purchased a stay in the Kansas City area for the Hallmark Christmas Experience event. I always add on the trip insurance even though I have never needed it. The unthinkable happened, I got very sick and was unable to travel. Priceline refused to let me cancel or change my reservation and the insurance was a complete fail.

    I provided dates, proof of my treatment and the treatment plan provided by the Dr., receipt for the visit, photos of the prescription etc. The insurance would not honor my paperwork, wanted a “seal” with the Physician’s signature and a few other things that is not standard practice. It would have required another a Dr. visit fee and some special hoops for the office to jump through for a letter they would accept. In the end, I paid for a room that I couldn’t use and a useless trip insurance. To lose a customer over a single night stay, albeit a higher end room is, in my opinion, bad business practice. Priceline offering trip insurance that requires SO much fine print reading and exclusions is unconscionable. So disappointed.

    Let me start by saying that I have been using Priceline for months now and I was happy until my last trip which was on Thursday December 26, 2024 and was supposed to be till Monday December 30, 2024 for 4 days at the Extended Stay Hotel in San Jose on San Ignacio road. Thursday night my family and I went to bed (Girlfriend, 4 year old son and I)

    I was woke up in the middle of the night and felt something crawling on my body. I quickly turned on the light to find cockroaches in the bed on my family and I!!!! I started packing all of her stuff and doing so in the bathroom I found More cockroaches at this point and purely disgusted and wish I never came to this hotel and we get the family and it's home when I'm staying here I would get a hold of Priceline and let the front desk know. The front desk people said there was reports of roaches on the third floor but not on the second it did seem like he cared and it was agreeing with me that I should get a refund but that couldn't be done until the morning when the manager got there and they could give me a full refund so I have to wait till 9:00 a.m. and at this time it was like 4:00 in the morning.

    I asked if I can be moved to a different room coz I'm not going to stay in that room till 9:00 in the morning. I have plenty of pictures and videos of all the roaches inside the room as well. The room with the roaches was on the third floor room 306. Last week we can be moved and they moved us to room number 228. I went and checked out the room before bringing my family over and it was better, no roaches but not clean as well. Stains on the floor, didn't I mean the walls were dirty, they didn't have roaches but it wasn't clean as well either but it was better than having roaches on us.

    In the morning I woke up about 10:00 a.m., went down to talk to the front desk and the front desk told me the manager wasn't going to be there until the second January 2nd of 2025 and I explained what happened. Roaches all in the bed. I would like to get a refund. He said I had to come back at 11:00. At 11:00 I spoke to a manager and he says yeah if I check out they'll be able to refund me. When I originally got there I upgraded to two beds for 68 more dollars out of pocket and not through Priceline but out of pocket and I asked if I can get that refunded and the manager said he agreed to give me that refund as well. So we checked out and he says okay he refunded it back to Priceline. Now I have to talk to Priceline and the third party person or company involved because I didn't go directly to the hotel, I went through Priceline.

    When I spoke to Priceline the night of the incident right when it happened they said they'll reach out to the third party and when they get back to me in 24 to 48 hours they'll be able to give me the resolution that they have come up with. I asked Priceline, "So I spent all my money for these four nights for me and my family I'm checking out of the hotel because there's roach infested rooms, I have no more money, you won't get me a room for my family and I and I have to sleep in my car tonight with my 4-year-old son is what you're saying because we're waiting on the third party to get back to you and to see if I would even get a refund?"

    They told me there was nothing they could do to help me out and my family. It would have to sleep in our car for that night. This is Friday night going in this Saturday I slept in the car with my family because we had no other money and they wouldn't give us money right away coz their hotel had roach infested rooms. The next day I call Priceline, speak to them again and they told me I am not going to get a refund or they emailed me saying they're not going to be able to refund my money. They spoke to the third party and unfortunately they weren't able to give me a refund so not only did they take $400 from me, my last $400 that I paid for a room and I woke up to roaches on me in that room and I refuse to stay in that room they said okay we're going to keep your money and not refund you or give you anything for compensating for the $400 I spent through Priceline.

    This is so ridiculous and upsetting and frustrating. I've never woken up to my kids or me being covered in roaches and it was truly disgusting and I will never go to an Extended Stay or go through Priceline ever again because they have no compassion for the people who are in the room. They could care less from their reactions to my incident. I will never go through them again and I'm out $400. I feel like it was stolen for me for no reason or fault of my own but because their hotel is full of roaches

    Review: Disappointing Experience with Priceline – Outdated Listings and Priceline Refusal to Change - I recently had a very frustrating experience booking through Priceline, and I feel it’s important to share what I learned. I booked a hotel based on its listings showing pet-friendly accommodations, free breakfast, and non-smoking rooms – features that were crucial for my stay. However, when I arrived at the hotel, I was told that none of these amenities were available anymore. The hotel had been sold to a new company, and they had removed these services, but none of this was reflected on Priceline’s website.

    To make matters worse, Priceline’s customer service was unhelpful. Despite my booking clearly reflecting these amenities, the hotel refused to offer a refund because it was a Priceline booking, and Priceline would not update the listing or change any details on the page. Essentially, the outdated amenities and reviews were still live, misleading future guests, and I was stuck with no recourse.

    It became clear that Priceline does not ensure that hotels update their listings or correct misleading information, even when it no longer aligns with the current offerings. The fact that old reviews and amenities stay up without clarification of the new hotel ownership is incredibly frustrating for travelers who rely on this information to make decisions.

    If you’re booking through Priceline, be aware that outdated listings and misleading information can be a real problem, especially when hotel ownership changes. I recommend verifying all amenities directly with the hotel before booking to avoid potential disappointments. Unfortunately, Priceline does not seem to take much responsibility for these issues, and their customer service won’t help in situations like mine.. I called Priceline and talked to a live person named Anne. She advised me to leave Priceline a bad review online. Another shocker for me. Makes me wonder if the person I talked to is a 3rd party call center.

    Priceline did an investigation and found that my reservation had been canceled and I did not know about the second reservation.

Priceline takes no responsibility for what happens to the customer or the status of the trip. Once they get their money, they have little to no interest about the outcome or success. They get paid for nothing. They are not even a US company. They will take your money for no exchange of goods and services. If the customer is not satisfied, Priceline takes ZERO responsibility.

Unfortunately, but I’d hoped to maybe get a credit towards a future trip & I contacted Priceline to pursue this. They told me they had to contact their supplier to request an exception & told me to stay on the line.

    When they came back they said their supplier has to contact their supplier, and that they’d email me a resolution. They said it’d take 24-48 hours. When they finally emailed me, 80 hours later, they told me they were unable to get an exception. I get that it’s a non-refundable room, and I assumed risk in booking it, but even a partial credit towards a future purchase would have satisfied me. They offered nothing to a family in crisis.

The room I booked had stains on the chair, the toilet paper holder coming out of the wall, the lock on the door does not work well. And when you contacted Priceline about this to get a different accommodation within the price range that you paid the original room with, they only allow you to exchange that very day or you must spend more money out-of-pocket. They do not care about their customers once they have your money.

    Do not ever ever rent a car or purchase the car rental insurance offered by Priceline. They sell fraudulent car insurance policies for their rental cars. It’s fraud and it’s bad business. I rented a car through Priceline and the website prompts the customer to purchase car collision insurance to go with the car rental. I purchased it, and when I went to pick up the car, the car rental company told me that they do not accept that insurance and I had to get different insurance. The car company said it happens all the time with Priceline and that their customers have told Priceline about it many many times. I called Priceline to complain and get my money back, but they would not give me a refund or do anything to remedy the situation. I told them it was fraudulent and should be illegal, and they did not care. Do not use Priceline for anything.

    I booked a package trip through Priceline to fly from Nashville to the Florida Keys. On Priceline‘s website, it clearly stated “total price, taxes and fees included“. When I went to check out of my resort, I asked for an itemized list of the final invoice receipt of my stay. They had charged me an additional $50 per day to total $350 additional Funds for this trip.

    I have contacted Priceline every single day for the last nine days and have been told that is the resort fees. However, I never agreed to that. Priceline never stated it in the invoice from my package trip price nor does the website of the resort state that they charge $50 per day for resort fees. I know because I went onto the resort's website prior to booking my trip through Priceline. I wanted to see the resort and read all the pertinent information and make sure what I was purchasing. No one wants to do anything about it.

    I had to contact my credit card company and I’m hoping that they will honor my dispute of the charges and refund the money. That’s a lot of money when you’ve already paid $2600. Priceline does not deal in transparency or honesty. Everything is after the fact. They don’t deal in the truth. This is how they get you. The resort keeps your credit card on file while you’re staying there and then they just go ahead and charge what they wanna charge. You have to fight to try to get your money back.

    Another thing about Priceline is when you first reach out to them they begin to respond back to you however, each email that they send a response to you is from a different person. There have been 10 different people that have responded to my complaints and none of them know the information that was shared with the other employees via email. It’s a nightmare they try to throw you off and play games because they know you’ll probably just give up and not keep fighting for your money. If anyone wants to file a class action lawsuit against Priceline I’m in..

    Warning: Do not buy airline tickets on Priceline. I had a very negative experience with Priceline. They offer additional services such as baggage purchases and airline ticket upgrades, but they do not fulfill their promises. They only keep the ticket money and refund the payment values for baggage, forcing you to buy through the airline, which makes the purchase much more expensive. The customer service is inefficient. I spoke with two supervisors, Jess L and Daniel, but neither of them offered a solution. It's unacceptable that a company has so many supervisors in a call center and cannot effectively resolve problems. I do not recommend buying airline tickets on Priceline. It's an inefficient company that does not fulfill its promises.

    Terrible experience in multiple ways. When I booked my trip, I had some things still up in the air, so I read the cancellation policy for the airlines and car rental before booking. When I make a change about an hour after booking — well within the 36 hour window the app said I have — and couldn’t cancel or change part of my purchase. The app said to call the vendor separately, so I did that and learned that, despite what Priceline posted on the app, I am unable to cancel or change it. So now I’ve paid for a portion of a trip that I don’t need and there’s apparently no course of action to fix it. I’ve used other travel sites with no problem, but this one is a mess.

    It is strongly advised not to book with Priceline.com. If you choose to do so, ensure you carefully review all pre-filled dates and times in the system before entering your credit card information. The platform does not provide an option to confirm the accuracy of the entered information before submitting the booking. In my experience, after entering my credit card information, I attempted to go back to review the details. However, the system automatically processed and submitted my request without allowing a review. While I was able to cancel the booking within five minutes, Priceline did not cancel the associated payment. As a result, I had to rebook the trip for the correct date, which was for an urgent and personal matter.

    Upon returning and reviewing my credit card statement, I found charges for both bookings, including one for the same day as the initial request. Attempts to resolve the issue were highly frustrating, with the hotel directing me to Priceline and Priceline insisting I contact the hotel. This lack of accountability and coordination left me with no resolution.

    I intend to escalate this matter by involving my lawyer and filing a formal complaint with the Better Business Bureau. Based on this experience, I will no longer use Priceline or any third-party booking platforms for future travel arrangements. Their customer service was unhelpful, and the numerous contacts I had to make to seek assistance were overwhelming. Consumers should proceed with extreme caution when dealing with such companies. Look up Bookit.com and you will learn a lot about their Ponzi scheme.

After waiting in line for an hour, without a word from the two workers. I was finally next in line. This is when I found out that they were requesting another $898 for a rental car. They did not have a car available for the price I had paid. Other victims of this SCAM CAR RENTAL included an elderly woman traveling alone, a family from Australia with two small children, and several other families. They only had 4 cars available, for people willing to pay the $800. The worker was telling a family of seven that they didn't have an suv for them, but wouldn't refund their money either.

    I called Priceline Customer service. They basically told me too bad. Said there was nothing they could do. That the car rental could do whatever they wanted, as far as charging more and not having the right cars or enough cars for the customers! How dare they! We trusted them!
