    I’ve been loyal to Priceline for a long time, but over the past couple of years they’ve really made it an issue if you’re trying to cancel or change anything. I have given a lot of my business to them just to hear excuses when I call and ask for help. I guess loyalty is just a word these days. Good riddance.

    First of all we showed up to our hotel. The receptionist was on the phone for 10 minutes arguing with somebody on the other line that they were overbooked and had no rooms and because there was a third-party there was nothing they could do because they don’t call and check their availability. Then then the receptionist told us that she had no rooms. Their visitor reservation was in the computer system, but they were overbooked that she may be able to get us one room with one king size bed for five people to share that they had no rooms on Saturday that we could go to the Best Western and check to see if they had any availability. Then I called Priceline to get a refund.

    They are denying a refund committing fraud when they are trying to say that we didn’t use our reservations that they supposedly had. That was not the case. There was another family that had the same issue. They went to go check in and they were told they were overbooked and had no rooms and sent them that and sent them to the Hamptons. This company is committing fraud, not wanting to give people refunds for their book ups when scheduling our booking hotels.

    I had to change my reservation within the same hotel chain, 3 miles down the road in response to Hurricane Helene. Customer service team was unaware of US events and refused to switch the reservation, despite the local hotels telling me they would accommodate if Priceline made a phone call to confirm change. Ultimately I was charged for two locations and the response was “This is the only way Priceline makes it money”. Terrible business model and a company like this should not be trusted.

    I made a room reservation through Priceline, (paid extra for the trip insurance), and was told that I did not qualify for a refund despite cancelling before check in. I would have been happy with a credit for a future reservation, but no. The money for the room and the money for the insurance was stolen from me, using the words: "it's our policy." Well, it is MY policy to use a different travel service from this day forward. The savings from Priceline, even as a "Gold VIP member" were OK, but I can do just as well elsewhere, and hopefully not have my money taken from me having not experienced the service I paid for.

    Horrible experience. Booked thru Priceline a small hotel in Greenvill SC. Booking was not supposed to be charged until arrival at hotel. Get to hotel and hotel is CLOSED! Find another hotel...no big deal BUT Priceline did charge me in full. Called number on email receipt, it shifts me to Booking.com. After 5 phone calls and large amount of time on hold, I finally speak with someone in China. On 5 phone call I finally get an email that reservation is cancelled. Ask for email that money is being returned. They can't supply. Call Priceline. They can't supply. GOT NOTHING BUT A RUNAROUND OVER 7 PHONE CALLS. WILL I EVER SEE ANY MONEY BACK...WHO KNOWS.

    We use Priceline a lot. Today we booked and upon arrival, they had name and no fee paid. We attempted to reach them over lunch but our booking # must have been entered by THEM wrong because robot said no reservation existed. We have email and confirmation #. Then they want a PIN # and neither email or app showed one. Then they want phone#…even telling us at beginning they saw reservation connected with our #, when entered, they said it was wrong. Tried 10 times. Three telephone calls, which took deep research to find a # for a human being…wants same PIN# we never got and yes, confirmed there is no booking under that number.

    An hour+ of work got us nowhere. We had to pay direct to hotel and Priceline is a non cancellation room so we will pay double and have to dispute with credit card company. This is the WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE I HAVE EXPERIENCED AND THE FEW REAL STAFF ARE NOT FROM THE USA or have strong accents so I couldn’t understand it very well.

    When purchasing a round-trip flight Priceline's computer bought the flights as two one-way tickets because one leg was "main cabin" and the other was basic economy. The airline would have booked as a main cabin roundtrip. Use the airline's website so you don't end up with a worthless one-way ticket if you have a change to make.

    I book about 3 times per year with Priceline, usually it works out fine. This time I was very disappointed with Priceline and Days Inn. Booked 2 nights' stay, and then Hurricane Helene came, I tried to cancel the reservation before check in but hotel phones were down. I called both Days Inn and Priceline after the fact and they both refused to refund $220. Blamed each other, saying the other was the reason why they couldn’t make an exception. Zero compassion. Plus, that hotel was overbooked, they filled that room, no profit loss.

    Priceline is a scam. I purchased a flight on their website, but they ever delivered a ticket. When I tried to contact them, I couldn't because the website had no record of my booking and the customer service line doesn't allow you to speak to an agent unless you have a trip # or registered phone number. Nevertheless, they charged me the full amount. When I eventually was able to get the trip number from United Airlines, Priceline's customer "care" team lied, gaslit me, and ultimately ignored every attempt I made for compensation. This company is a disgrace to business ethics everywhere.

    I've been using Priceline for a while now. While not having any issues with the hotels, I guess you could say Priceline is nice. But the first time I have an issue, not only me but possibly everyone in the hotel have the worst experience, they cannot help me. We were in town for a youth hockey tournament. First night was good, second night was the worst experience ever. Fire alarm going off at 1am. Then again and again. False alarm but good way to get a bunch of kids awake and worried. One family in our group even getting their room flooded from the rooms above when the sprinklers went off. That being said, everyone that booked directly through the hotel was refunded for the second night. Priceline customer service says there is nothing they can do except send me a 15% off coupon. At $140 a night the coupon is greatly appreciated!

    I needed to extend my stay in Tuscaloosa by one day & decided to use Priceline’s app. The special offer of a 1-of-3 hotel options for $59 for a 2.5-star accommodation seemed good, especially since I was familiar with 2 of the 3 options. Of course it “randomly” chose the one I was least familiar with; but the rate was great so I went willingly. Little did I know that the Ramada is 1/3 hotel & 2/3s motel, & I was assigned to the motel! I’m not too much of a snob and the rate was about what a motel would be, but the whole affair seemed like a bait-and-switch. I won’t use that again, and Priceline is behind Trivago in my choices now.

    I searched for a resort in Vermont, what I selected looked like the web page from the resort, photos, amenities, etc., so I booked a room for 3 nights. Then I needed to change the reservation, called the phone number on the email only to find out the reservation was made through Priceline. There is nothing on any communications to indicate Priceline!! I knew the reservations were not refundable, but there is nothing in the communications that states the dates can’t be moved! I can change the reservation to add nights, but not to move nights, what a scam.

    I thought that I was booking directly through the resort as the web page gave that impression. There is something very wrong about Priceline selling through a fake website. I called the resort and they know about the website issues but could only recommend in the future to look for the Okemo logo. They have plenty of open rooms, and the room prices directly though the Okemo web site are lower price compared to what I booked. The resort was unable to help because the reservation is through the fake website. SCAM, SCAM, SCAM!!!

    Price Gouging between Best Western and Priceline during a Declared state of Emergency. In Yulee Florida. Used Priceline. Booked and paid by credit card. Went to Best Western Yulee because it said "Pet friendly". You check in at the Hotel. First thing they do is charge you 100 dollar penalty for not booking Best Western. Then when you arrive they code all charges as Pet fees. NOT HOTEL STAYS. Then when Priceline pays Best Western it's coded as "Hotel Stay" while the Best Western keeps the Pet fees they keep. Then if you complain they blame Priceline. And it never gets resolved. THIS IS HOW THIS PRICE GOUGING SCAMS WORKS!. Charged 150 dollars for 2 dogs after our Governor asked them to waive them. It cost us (on one Social Security check) to pay 350 dollars for one night and refused to give us a Receipt when we left.

    Priceline is a con all by itself. They make things sound as if though everything is paid and taken care of. Once arriving to destinations such as car rentals and hotels it seemed that by the time you get there you have to pay everything in full. This company should be taken to court and shut down. I experienced the worst renting a car. I thought it was paid for in the package deal then I had to pay a 700 dollar rental fee. Second the hotel was another issue. A deposit of 1000 was taken as well. That became an issue. By the time I was in Florida for 4 days I spent a total of 3500 dollars for a simple vacation through this company. Never hell no do it yourself. Don’t need this company. They’re nothing but scam artist.

    After booking hotels through Priceline a few times, I used their service for military members “American Forces Travel.” After I made a booking, I couldn’t find the trip details in my inbox so I attempted to contact Priceline. While it may have been my fault that I didn’t sign into the Priceline account affiliated with the email I wanted to use, the fact that I couldn’t contact a human at Priceline to try to find my trip based on the payment information is absurd. I was infinitely redirected to chat bots who were unable to assist me. As a result, I was charged for a booking I was unable to use.

    They will not have your back if push comes to shove or something goes wrong, I will no longer be booking through them. I can’t take it anymore, it’s not their first time doing something similar to me. One time I booked a rental and the rental was dirty and the lining black thing in the rental kept falling out so I canceled it because the rental wasn’t what I paid for and it was dirty and not up to standard. Priceline did not give me a refund. I ate that and still gave them another chance for this to be the result a couple of years later, people should be treated better than this.

    I recently booked a hotel room via Priceline and got XCover insurance if I had to cancel due to an event. In this case, Hurricane Helene occurred and made travel to Athens dangerous as I am on a cycling trip, but since the hotel has not officially closed, no major roads in the area are closed. The XCover insurance will not cover the cancellation and has denied the claim.

    For this reason, I will never book anything through Priceline or use XCover again. I tried to find a way to speak to a human at XCover, but there were no means to talk. You must use their website to send comments back and forth; how they have designed the website is strange. For the claim to be honored, they wanted me to cycle through the hurricane-damaged area, and if I got injured, then they would honor the claim; this is something that I cannot risk. I have found both Priceline and XCover useless in helping me resolve this issue. I would give both companies one star if I could. Save your money and find other ways to book your vacation.

We had to scramble between other rental companies to find either a truck or a minivan, which ended up costing us an additional $150 and put us at risk of missing the wedding. When we contacted Priceline after returning, they claimed someone had canceled our booking, insisting it wasn’t their fault. We never made that call, and the representative couldn't identify who did.

    Priceline is just one of many travel "stores," but I rarely get a better deal than I could get elsewhere. And when I have needed customer service, they have been pathetic. This last weekend was the kicker. I stayed at the Days Inn at Ocean Shores. I made good time and arrived an hour early. The front desk receptionist looked like a gang-banger, which is somewhat forgivable because that is the new normal for hiring. But then she told me it there would be surcharge to check me in early even if my room was ready It had been a long drive, so I asked if I could at least use a restroom before I went to kill some time. She said no, I couldn't use their restroom. In 59 years, I have never visited even a motel with those policies. I went to the beach and called Priceline. I told them I did not want to give my money to Days Inn and would prefer anywhere else.

    The rep was polite enough, and said he'd call the hotel and see if they would release me from my reservation without penalty, even for the second night, but the answer was "no." End of story. So I stayed. The room itself was fine, what I would expect for a budget hotel and it met my needs. However the lock was extremely stiff and I ended up getting trapped in my room. When I called the front desk, there as no answer.

    I tried calling Priceline to see if they could call the hotel on my behalf, and they hung up on me. I tried calling again and was on hold for a long time. I considered screaming for help. Surely it is a fire hazard to be trapped in a room like that with only one exit. After 20 minutes of struggle, I finally got the door open. I found a staff person, but she did not speak good enough English to converse with. There was no one at the front desk, so I turned in my keys and left. I have tried to leave a review on the Priceline website, but can't find a way to do it. Multiple calls to Priceline, and no one knows how to leave a review. It is really quite unbelievable.

    Priceline.com and Booking.com are one in the same! I have an issue with Priceline refusing to give me the money owed to me through Rakuten. They refuse to talk to me. They are giving Rakuten the runaround thinking I would go away. When I did not go away they said I used a coupon and other things keeping me from getting money. I advised them I did nothing to disqualify me from getting my rewards. I am capable of booking my own room, I only used them to get the rewards. I will NEVER USE THEM AGAIN. I will keep complaining about their horrible service until they realize word of mouth can make or break a company. Looking at all of these horrible reviews makes me think everyone needs to keep complaining until they finally go out of business. It is obvious they do not care about their customers at all.

    We tried to change the return flight for the ticket we bought through Priceline and Priceline could not find our tickets. So we had to call American Airlines to straighten it out. I told my wife she should not have booked through priceline because we had a horrible experience several years ago when we booked a hotel through priceline and they charged us for two nights even though we only booked one night. After we finally got that straightened out, Priceline said we bought a monthly program and kept charging us for whatever the program was. I filed a complaint on Google about it at the time. It looks like they got Google to stop allowing reviews. Wonder why? Anyway, I do not recommend this company based on my two experiences many years apart in which Priceline was extremely dishonest.

    After several terrible experiences I finally give up. My latest experience - booked a flight through Priceline and the airline somehow changed my departure date a day after my connecting flights. Priceline told me to contact the airline, the airline told me to contact Priceline. Long story short, no one wanted to be held accountable. I was forced to book another flight at the last minute, which costed a small fortune, and to top it all off I had to fight to get a PARTIAL refund. Through no mistake of my own and a major inconvenience to me, I ended up spending an extra $600 for a one way flight. Priceline will never be accountable when you are wronged.

    While traveling, we needed a last minute hotel stay and decided to try to find a cheap place for the night through Priceline. The area we were staying, some of the hotels charged an extra damage deposit which we did not want to deal with so we called priceline before booking to make sure there were no hidden damage deposits etc. The CSR on the phone, while pleasant, barely spoke english. His name was Sergio. This was the WORST experience ever. I told him were were needing a room for that night and checking out the following day. I had to spell my name and everything else 2-3 times for him to understand. He confirmed we would not have to pay an extra deposit, he confirmed everything would be sent in an email which we appreciated because we could not understand half of what he said.

    We go to the hotel only to find out he still spelled my name wrong and he booked it for the following Sunday which was completely useless to us as we were not going to be in the area then and still need a room for THAT night. When I call priceline I'm told it was not refundable, not modifiable and we were out the money we paid. I completely understand if I do not show up for a prepaid reservation you have every right to keep the money. But he put the wrong date in and that is not the date requested. I asked for it to be escalated to a supervisor and she told me they would have to review the recording and it would take at least 24 hours and we would receive an email.

    Their conclusion: that I did indeed request September 7th but Sergio recapped the call so there would be no refund. So because we did not understand what he was saying and he was a complete idiot, we were out the money. Don't use priceline, too many hidden fees, hidden agendas and shadiness. That definitely works in their favor to have someone just put any random date in and make money off of people who cannot undo the damage.

    Recently used Priceline for a car rental and insurance, and unfortunately, my experience was disappointing. Their price doesn't includes Additional driver & Toll routes. That means you have to pay $30 USD/per day extra. Additionally, the insurance coverage was confusing and not clearly explained, leading to unexpected costs at the counter. They only offer collision damage protection means you have to get the liability insurance from the rental car company or you have to used your own car insurance. Liability insurance from rental company is $14 USD/ per day. Overall, the service did not meet my expectations, and I would recommend exploring other options for car rentals.

    This is a Fraudulent company! Fraudulent! Fraudulent! I just sent a complaint to Better Business Bureau. I have confirmation of Aug 15-18 for hotel reservations. Once to hotel they stated they couldn’t find but dates for the 16-18. When calling Priceline they stated seen my confirmation for the hotel for all dates 15-18. With still nothing resolved for an extensive amount of time they call me back and say they see that I TRIED to cancel that date, which is correct I did in Initially TRY when by human error, hit the wrong date before realizing, after paying for it.

    I tried immediately to cancel that date but they stated it’s NON refundable to cancel the first night of a stay (even way over a month out, on July 9). Therefore we said DON’T cancel the reservation then, we will just stay there that night. Well apparently Priceline cancelled it anyway! Also, without sending or stating confirmation in ANY way or form. So I had to pay $177.79 to stay when I had already paid for it!!

    When trying to communicate with customer service multiple times and dates and explain that they were the ones that made the mistake, which we are human we do, but that’s their mistake they that they should reimburse me for . It’s not my fault they cancelled it after I clearly said, NO Don’t cancel it! Any they have hung up on me/muted my calls/saying they lost me/not calling me back/being rude and refusing to take accountability for their actions. They say t have the recording of me TRYING to cancel the reservation, well yeah but also in that recording you clearly hear me say No don’t cancel it then! Leave it alone! This has been a huge run around.

    I have asked for proof of me (supposedly) cancelling and asking where is the confirmation email of the cancellation and they have NOT responded to me since. Like I said I have filed a complaint with Better Business Bureau. I’ll never use the company again! I’ll also advise others not too, especially after reviewing other customer’s unfortunate experiences with them.

When we arrived at the Europcar office in downtown Florence, we and 4 other parties were turned down for picking up their car rentals. There were no options except to rent from an agency across the the street at twice the price plus losing the money on the Priceline rental. I understand non-refundable policy when it would be my fault, but not Priceline's fault. I have only been able to speak to a computer AI so far, to no avail.

Then they do not do a walk-around inspection and tell you to just drive off the lot --"it's fine" (again, never happened before). My rental had 25K miles on it; I drove it less than 94 miles before returning it. They said I had 4 windshield chips and charged me for 2 at $70 for "windshield repair".

    On 22 August I reserved a rental car through Priceline for rental 4-5 Oct. On 4 September I had to cancel the reservation because my daughter's graduation date changed. Priceline denied my $97.63 refund but if you view their website it clearly says they will process your rental car cancellation. They are completely dishonest and steal money from their customers. I am a disabled veteran and it's a shame Priceline is refusing to refund my money. I will inform all my friends and veterans about their dishonest practices.

    I used to think Priceline was decent and then I decided to book with a bundle that included airline tickets, rental car and hotel. Then my flight was canceled and we lost three days off of my trip and Priceline said they could not refund or do anything for me, not even a credit for the future. Horrible company.

    Travelled in Orlando on 08/31/2024. Went to Priceline to get a Hotel. Express deal offered $100.00 4 Star Hotel. It came up as Double Tree- we were so happy. Then we went to a beautiful lobby and got registered, got the keys and went to a room. We were Shocked! 2 story building- Motel Style with catwalk. No elevator- after hard tiring day had to carry all luggage to a 2nd floor. In the morning spoke to Gabriel- manager on duty- he agreed that this was NOT a 4-star accommodation. Main Building -Yes, not a 2 story. He mentioned that Priceline has their own gradation and it is Priceline 4 Stars. Called Priceline- same answer- "it is our Star Rating." No apologies, no refund!

    I am absolutely disappointed with Priceline. It was my first time booking hotel with them. We have chosen room for 265$ per One bedroom but when we have arrived we have been given small studio which cost was $191 per night… We have reached customer service right away but all we have heard that’s what their system says and no refund of price difference or any credit was given to us… as hotel was fully booked we spent our vacation at that small room for price of one bedroom twice bigger in size! I don’t recommend booking through them. It seems like scam. Be aware! Flight and car booking was fine though…

    I recently (8/31/2024) rented a car from Thrifty Car Rental by the Philadelphia Int'l airport through Priceline. This was nothing short of a disaster. The folks at Thrifty were pleasant and took good care of me, however, the folks at Priceline (car rental department) could not hauve been any less accommodating than they were on the phone and online. Just awful. A few details. Not more than 15 minutes after I made my reservation, I wanted to change the rental from 5 days to 3. My plans had changed. They would not allow the change the number of days REALLY? I just made the darn reservation. I read as much of the contract as I possibly could to make sure this was the right choice for me but again, I decided to change the rental period. No help on the phone when I called. Not sympathetic at all.

    Then, 3 days later I returned the car and was told over the phone by Priceline to go inside the rental office to complete the contract and when I went in the office, the staff told me, "Oh no we don't need you to come in just leave the keys in the car and you can leave!!!" Ugh! Then once I got home I received a copy of the final bill and they charged me $10.99 for a gallon of gas. Now, the price of gas in Philadelphia was $3.37 per gallon at the time. Is the price gauging? I believe so. DO YOURSELF A FAVOR DO NOT RENT A CAR THROUGH PRICELINE. Disgraceful to take advantage of consumers this way.

    I booked a reservation flight on June 11th for my mom from DTW to FOC on the Priceline website June 4th. We arrived at Delta Airlines with no issue and checked in. When my mom landed in LAX we were denied entry because our name on your system did not match with the name of passport, green card, and ID. We told the ticket agent that our flight from DTW to LAX was processed. On their side of the system both from Delta Airlines and Priceline they said our system name matches with the passport, ID, and green card.

    Priceline was the travel agency we used. The ticket agent in LAX told us to call Priceline or China Eastern Airlines for the name change. I called priceline first and got a response within a minute and said 'in their system we have your name under BIXIA ** which matches identically with our passport. Then priceline said since the itinerary has been processed they can not make changes to something that is correct. Priceline said that China Eastern Airline should have the responsibility to change the name on their system. Priceline tried to get in contact with China Eastern Airline for over an hour on the phone both times and no response. Same with the travel agent who had two phones on the line and still nobody answered.

    We were then informed by priceline to talk to the ticket desk and not by the ticket agent on the change of name on the system. The ticket agent dismissed us and did not inform us we could have changed our name on the ticket desk rather than being stuck with customer service. My mom did miss the flight from LAX to PVG. My mom was escorted out of China Eastern Airline. When I told my mom about changing the name at the ticket desk/ticket counter from Priceline advice. It was too late because China Eastern Airlines was already closed by 12:30 P.M. I had to buy a flight back to LAX to DWT.

    I closed the itinerary with Priceline and they have emailed you twice on June 11th. All I need is for the China Eastern Airline accounting department to contact Priceline for the refund calculation. We ended up buying a flight back to DWT and if you do have compensation for that it will be much appreciated. We just need to contact Priceline as fast as possible so we can get the refund. Priceline has transferred us to China Eastern Airline to speak with an agent but could not get in contact with anyone because of the hold time or being hung up. Is it supposed to be Priceline's responsibility to get in contact with Chinese Eastern Airline and figure out the remaining calculation?

    I can not get in contact with Chinese Eastern Airlines. Made multiple complaints on the Chinese Eastern Airline website and still no response. My mom did miss the flight to Fujian China and missed the family emergency. My grandma is in the hospital for surgery and unfortunately missed out because of the flight. Priceline makes millions of dollars per year, is it possible for them to give us the refund and their responsibility to ask the refund from Chinese Eastern Airline because they are the travel agency.

    Priceline can get in contact with Chinese Eastern Airline but I can not. We just need the remaining calculation from China Eastern Airline, they have approved of the refund. I have made multiple contacts back and forth and still there has not been any solution? You guys have told me on the phone you will help with getting the remaining refund on the ticket. Why am I only getting the unused tax? Is there an explanation to not getting the refund? How much is the returning flight refund? Did you tell China Eastern Airlines that they cancelled the flight my mother was supposed to go to to visit her mother for a surgery. I had to pay out of my own pocket for a flight back. Did you tell them to cancel the no show policy? I had to book another flight the next month because my grandmother was in a coma and missed the surgery? Why haven't I got any calls?

    I rented a room at the EconoLodge in Duluth MN through Priceline on Saturday. When I got to the hotel 1st they rented us a room that was already occupied. Then they sent us to another one that was absolutely filthy. However we decided to give it a try. But the floors were filthy and sticky and when I laid on the bed within a few minutes I was broke out in hives all over my neck. I then thought to check the mattress which was completely stained up with lots of brown stains.

    I went and let Linzy at the front desk know that I was having an allergic reaction and could not stay. She told me to call priceline and she would refund both nights. She told priceline she didn't have the authority to refund. Priceline is saying they can/won't do anything about it at all. Just unreal that they won't refund any portion. It was booked for 2 nights, I stayed in the rm about 20 minutes the 1st day. I assumed at least the 2nd night would be refunded since it's a 24 hr cancelation but priceline and the hotel will not stand behind that!

Priceline changes details of your booking, such as the date, during the booking process and then when you realize they have changed your original booking and try to call them to cancel or modify they tell you there is nothing they can do so they keep your money. There are tons of reviews and complaints to better business bureau corroborating this. Do NOT book through Priceline. Ever.

    Priceline is a downright scummy company. I booked a hotel with them and then canceled less than an hour later within their terms and they are refusing to refund me. They also never sent me a cancellation email so when I tried to do a chargeback there is no way to prove it. They had me call to cancel and all I can prove with that is that I called them. Yet when I go into the trip it says cancelled. This is downright fraud in my opinion. I cancelled according to their terms, then they refused to refund me and also orchestrated it so that I have nothing to stand on with my card company.

    I know eventually there will be a class action lawsuit after they do this to millions of "customers". I will never ever ever use Priceline or any of their sister companies again. The fraud has been reported to the FTC, hopefully anyone else who has these same fraud issues does the same and at some point the FTC launches an investigation into their fraudulent activities.

    My experience with Priceline has been absolutely appalling. I paid Priceline nearly $900 for a hotel reservation from 8/5/24 through 8/15/24. When I checked out of the hotel, I was provided a standard folio with my total for each night, including all taxes and fees. The hotels charges were over $100 less than what Priceline had charged me. I called Priceline immediately (8/15/24) and explained they had overcharged me by over $100. The agent apologized, contacted the hotel on my behalf and assured me they had already submitted a refund for the difference in prices upon checkout, and that it should be deposited within the next few business days. I waited until 8/23/24 and still no refund.

    When I contacted Priceline again, the agent was very rude and dismissive saying they don't give refunds. I explained what the other agent had told me, he read her notes and told me that she was wrong, he refused to contact the hotel like she had and told me that this is all the hotel's fault because, and I quote "they were never supposed to tell you the real price because we have an arrangement with them to charge our own price". When I begrudgingly asked for a supervisor, he told me not to bother because they'll tell me the same thing. When I said he just lost Priceline a customer for life, he said "we respect your decision". I worked call center customer service all throughout college so I pride myself on being kind and respectful and I'm not the kind to request a sup, but man this guy was just awful.

    When he finally agreed to transfer me (after asking multiple times), the supervisor read the first agent's notes, agreed she did tell me they would be refunding the $110 but that she had to contact the hotel to figure it out. 45 minutes into this call she comes back to tell me the manager of the hotel wasn't available so she was putting in a ticket for a call back. This morning I get an email saying simply "We were unable to obtain approval for a refund. Therefore, your reservation remains non-refundable and non-changeable." So, to everyone reading this review, know that Priceline charges whatever they want and they make the hotel agree to not tell you their real price because they jack it up to line their own pockets.

    Their "Better Price Guarantee" is a complete lie, they have no intentions of ever providing a refund for the difference in what they charge vs what the hotel actually charged, let alone the ridiculous 200% refund they "guarantee" on their website. Their customer service is all out of country and they literally couldn't care less. Absolutely outrageous. 0/10, will never recommend or use them again and will 100% be telling everyone about the absolute scam that is Priceline.

    I just come back from staying in a hotel that I booked in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina for one week through Priceline. It was the worst hotel I’ve ever stayed. Downright filthy. The shower curtain had black mold on it and I have a list that I can go on and on how bad it was. I’m just disappointed that Priceline is booking a hotel that was that bad. Do not book the Sandcastle resort at the pavilion in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Disgusting.

    We purchased a trip through Priceline/Armed Forces Travel and opted in on the 'travel insurance'. Well, the first thing that happened is our bank contacted us asking if a transaction for this insurance was fraudulent. Priceline/Armed Forces Travel never disclosed they would be charging us additional through another vendor. It gets even worse! This company has no phone number. What a great way to help out customers. Wait, there's more! Travel insurance only covers health/medical. Nothing else! So, it's not travel insurance, it's 'travel health insurance' - which is completely fraudulent. This was not disclosed prior to booking. And... Without their fake insurance, if you cancel in my circumstance, they charge you one room night for it. Thanks, 'Cover Genius', for nothing.

    Never do a bundle deal through Priceline. I gave priceline a 3 star because some things worked out well the plane ticket, hotel all were great. The rental car company priceline use for bundle is Routes Rental car. This company is a scam. I went to Houston, TX for a wedding and upon arriving at airport I got picked up and taken to rental car company which by the way is not at airport, it's in the middle of an parking lot for Park and Fly parking lot. There was this little shack no bigger than a shed. You talk to an tv screen, no present reps except on screen. You get there and action. Ok so when you book with priceline you are advised there are other service fees per rental car company. Well a under statement, I paid $121 more than expected, that's another rental car.

    I advised rep I had insure for collision and my credit card covers also. They insured ok and charged me anyways, they email paperwork, they ask if I wanted the toll basic 9.99 or another one for 20+ a day, not explaining the basic 9.99 only is for a device on car not paying toll. Why would you charge someone that without booking toll. Also the tag is in your name how does that benefit me? I later found out it's cheaper to go to the toll app and get an electronic device to use. I really should have did my research because this same company was reported to Houston News for shady rental activity news KPRC 2 investigations.

    I first called company after viewing my bill then reported issues to priceline. They did their research, got response back, basically same lie company stated to me, no one couldn't answer why they charge me collision still. If that was case I would have given my car insurance, they never verified my credit card has it either. My issue with priceline is you send your customers to shady people to get ripped off, I now see all the bewares online about priceline rental car company after paying for rental car with you. We have a right to decline collision in my state for rental if we are covered, why would they just charge anyway? What's done is done but after reporting to priceline I was not satisfied, neither were many other people were happy, after sending documents to show they should not be sending their customers to them.

    I priceline is off my list. I prefer to use a company that takes the time to hear the customer view and at least thoroughly investigate all reports not just mine but hear the voice of their customers. Don't pretend priceline this is the First you have heard of this company having complaint on because it's all in the news, do us a favor and read the signs and make decision for the people you claim to brand for. This company reviews are terrible all the way from Daytona to Texas routes rental reviews are terrible.

    I tried booking with Priceline for a package trip from Victoria, BC to Halifax, NS. We are looking to bring our infant daughter, who is one-and-a-half years old, and the option for her to sit on our lap showed up. Not having to buy another seat, of course we chose that option. But, nope -- Priceline says that flying from BC, Canada to Nova Scotia, Canada is an international flight, and she can therefore not sit in our laps. First of all, we have flown with her in our laps from Canada to Mexico last year and then again from Canada to Chile earlier on this year (both international flights,) and there were no issues. Second, Canada to Canada is a domestic flight.

    Fine, it must be something with the website, so I call customer service. I was then informed that the system at Priceline will not let anyone book to have an infant in their lap if they are not flying within the USA, because Priceline is an "American company." I asked for a manager, so I could explain the situation and hopefully help them clear things up. Speaking with the manager, she really didn't care. She had no interest in passing on this glaring mistake, and claimed that it was Priceline's policy to not take care of customers that are not within the USA. She then asked "is there anything more I can help you with?" It's like she completely missed the point that I was helping them, not the other way around. Anyway, I found cheaper prices on Expedia, so it's all good for me.

    Our family was planning a trip to Branson, MO. I saw this “wonderful deal” in Priceline---$84 per night for a “3-star” hotel during the Independent long weekend so I booked it. The total cost is $309.15. The name of this “3-star” is Red Lion Inn & Suites Branson. If you enjoy cleaning up a toilet and bringing all the trash cans out to a dumpster in a parking lot to empty the trash every day while staying in a “3-star hotel”, this is a perfect place that you would like to stay in Branson, MO. Priceline tags it as a 3-star hotel but I would call it a “ghost motel”…

    When arriving in the hotel around 5 pm, I did not see any other cars in the parking lot but one just like a “ghost motel”…I once even thought that we were in the wrong place. Later in the front desk, we did see another couple with a girl. The smart husband was actually calling Priceline and asking for a cancellation or partial refund when we were checking in which we later found out. When we moved our luggage into the room and eventually we found out that: 1. The toilet was dirty so I had to clean it up by myself. 2. The cable TV and Wifi worked for the first 10 minutes and then downed for the rest of time we stayed there. 3. Stained towels/blankets. 4. Spider webs in the corner.

    We have not filed a complaint yet at this time. The next morning we went to the breakfast bar for breakfast and found out that the breads on the desktop had expired in May (about two month ago) so we did not eat any of them. Later we found out that there were three employees only for this hotel so there is no service at all as a result I had to bring all the trash cans out to the big dumpster in the parking lot and empty every day. Also we had to go to the front desk every day to ask for towels/bar soaps/bath tissues. We later complained all these to the front desk…was told that we would need to file a complaint to Priceline for we booked the hotel via them.

    On the third day, I met that couple who filed a complaint with Priceline who we met in the first day and was told that Priceline had agreed to issue a 20% refund back to them. I then called Priceline and filed a formal complaint asking for a partial fund. Per Priceline, this “ghost motel” is correctly rated as a 3-star hotel…the rating was done by customers not Priceline. I have called Priceline multiple times to follow up on my complaint. Priceline finally states that they have contacted the hotel owner but the owner won’t agree to refund any so no refund to us.

    Hopefully you have a chance to read this review before booking so you won’t have to pay a 3 star hotel price with Priceline to stay in a “ghost motel” like this. Priceline: please stop false ads (tag a “ghost motel” as a 3-star hotel). Please stop treating customers differently…The another family have 20% refund back but we get nothing.

    I took a trip to Seattle to surprise my 8 year old granddaughter who has HLHS (half a heart). She has had 3 open hear surgeries with her 4th this December. The hotel Days Inn in SeaTac was by far the most traumatic experience I've ever had. I booked through Priceline, I called to tell them I had to leave with both my grand children due to an enraged patron who stayed underneath us. If you walk across the floor it would rattle the furniture causing it to bang against the wall. My grand daughter is very tiny, and my grandson or I are heavy foot. The patron came to my room and turned psycho banging his fists on my door, my granddaughter was terrified. Management stated he said the children were jumping on the beds and jumping on the floor which neither was true. Management REFUSED to move me as I requested several times which lead to me calling the cops and for our safety leaving at 12:30 am.

    Priceline initially offered me a 15% discount in which I stated NO WAY!! I want my money back. She stated because they were a third party there was nothing they could do. I asked for her supervisor, she told me she was it, I stated FALSE. Everyone has someone higher up, she transferred me to her supervisor who in turn stated she would look into this, called the hotel in which they hung up on her, she called them back and they informed her I was lying and I never made any complaints. She stated due to this she could offer me a 20% discount!! WHAT AN INSULT.

    I am now working on a complaint with the Days Inn Corporate office and will also work on one with Priceline. They not only are willing to make things right, I feel they are adding to the traumatic experience. I called the police, the hotel manager said he was going to kick the guy out, was going to review the audio and video in which HAD HE DONE SO he would be able to see this crazy deranged lunatic not only made his way from the 3rd floor up to our floor to threaten, harass and scare us. There are no words for not believing me, looking further into this and making this right!! I will not stop until this is corrected!! Do not use this website or Days Inn in SeaTac.

    When I saw a booking for an upgraded room on Priceline at such a good deal, I jumped at the opportunity. I booked immediately and emailed the hotel to confirm my reservation. The hotel responded, confirming my reservation but stated that I would be staying in a regular room instead of the upgraded one I booked. The next day, I called Priceline to explain that my reservation was for an upgraded room, not a regular one. They assured me they would look into it and get back to me. A month passed with no response. After following up via email with no reply, I called again. This time, Priceline informed me that the upgraded room I booked was not available at the time of booking, so they placed me in a regular room instead.

    This is unacceptable for two reasons:

    1. I distinctly remember checking the hotel’s website and seeing that the upgraded room was available when I booked.

    2. It is unreasonable to downgrade my reservation without my consent and expect me to be satisfied with it.

    I eventually found a customer service manager’s email and reached out directly. They responded, suggesting that I contact the hotel myself to arrange and pay for the room upgrade, with the promise of reimbursement upon sending them a receipt. I find it completely unacceptable that Priceline would place the burden on me, their customer, to rectify a mistake they made. Furthermore, the hotel operates in a different time zone, with business hours that do not align with mine, making this process even more difficult. When I expressed my discomfort with paying for the upgrade upfront and asked why Priceline couldn’t handle it directly, they simply responded that they couldn’t do it. This entire experience has been frustrating and disappointing. This was my first time using Priceline, and it will certainly be my last.

    I hate that I have to come on Trustpilot to complain but I feel like it is a valuable resource to working people like me. I book hotels regularly for my employees, and myself, for business and personal travel. I use Priceline for booking flights, they are good and fair on the prices for these. Transparent and you pay what they say you will. However when you book a hotel, the price they show you is nowhere near what you will actually pay.

    Case in point, I just booked 2 nights for my employee in Salina, KS, and I looked at CLC Lodging and Priceline, they were similar in price. So I called Priceline reservations to add my driver's name to reservation. When the CSR told me the total price, I told her that seemed awful high and was it taxes and fees, she said just taxes. I asked again? Are you sure? She assured me yes that it was. So as soon as I got off the phone, I checked CLC Lodging, and their total price was 196.78 and Priceline 228.90 Hotel subtotal $175.74. Price per night $87.87. Number of nights 2. Taxes and fees $53.24. Total charged $228.9

    This is straight off of my itinerary. I have spent the last hour trying to get them to price match the total price but they won't. I feel that their tactics are very deceptive and non-transparent. Had the CSR told me that truth, I would of said - Thank you but I will book thru CLC Lodging, who are totally transparent and do not charge huge fees. It is only a matter of $30 but I do not like to be lied, fooled, or mislead, it is a matter of integrity and honesty to me. Some weeks I book several reservations a week and this could add up.
