Booking.com Failed hotel check-in, request a refund

I went to the London City View Hotel and there was no staff at the front desk. I made many phone calls and no one responded.

This meant that I didn't stay at this hotel at all, so I applied for a refund on the platform.

I also spent a lot of time looking for a new hotel, but by then the other hotels were full and I sat at the train station until 5am, leaving London and returning to the city I live in, Leeds, which was very distressing.

Afterwards, I tried to contact Booking and the hotel to request a refund, the hotel said they hadn't received the money and I had to go and contact Booking, but I couldn't get hold of Booking's customer service at all!

Both sides are passing the buck to each other. Neither side will come out to solve the problem.

Claimed loss: 59.21

Desired outcome: 59.21

Booking.com Website not working properly

I have been trying to change two of my bookings dates, part of the problem is the calendar on the site is not the customary Sunday to Saturday layout. I have tried to change two bookings dates and the pink bar says contact property. I emailed the property and they said booking.com has to change it. Booking.com has gotten too big and is no longer functional. I am a Genius Level 3 on their site and it is no longer something I can rely on.

Claimed loss: Loss of time, loss of positivity toward planning a two month trip, loss of a tool I use for travel.

Desired outcome: I would like the website to work, the information to be accurate and stop the run around, go back to just hotels and have the site work well, I do not use Priceline, Expedia and now you are just like them.

Booking.com A booking I need to change

I am highly upset about the fact that I cannot get through to Booking.com through there telephone number nor their email and I get the same response to emails which seems to be a generic email asking for information about the booking I need help with. Every time I dial the number it goes through and AI automated voice asking for the confirmation number and pin number of which when I type it in it just repeats the same thing over and over and does not put me through to anyone to speak too. When I send an email, I have no joy with that either I need to change dates for my booking as the dates are wrong and I can't even do that on the site or through the app I need customer service to help of which they are non-existent. I am now needing to spend an extra £80 to book directly with the hotel of which I will lose my £80 from my previous booking as there is no refund options. I am absolutely disgusted and cannot believe the level of service from such a large organisation.

Claimed loss: £80

Desired outcome: I would like some type of feedback and a refund purely on the basis that I couldn't even make the changes I needed to make due to their lack of customer service options.

Booking.com Flights

We booked flights from Perth (AUS) to Kuala Lumper, with Air Asia through Booking.com. When we arrived at the airport for our scheduled flight we found that the flight did not exist! We had to book alternative flights with another airline to make our connecting flight. Booking.com have refused to refund our money saying that we need to make a request to Air Asia, we did this but Air Asia have said that as we purchased the tickets through Booking.com (a third party) we need to get the money back from them. We have send multiple requests to Booking.com complete with screenshots from Air Asia saying they cannot process a refund as we booked through a third party. Booking.com keep saying the same thing to us and will not refund us. This has been going on since the 16th December 2023.

Claimed loss: $1350 AUD

Desired outcome: Refund flight cost

Booking.com A booking that I had

I had made a reservation at the YOTEL in Argyll Street in Glasgow for Friday 2nd & Saturday 3rd February. I did not take the cancellation fee as there was ABSOLUTELY NO WAY that we were not going to be requiring the accommodation. Unfortunately as the occupants for this accommodation were travelling from one of the Scottish Island the airplane did not make the journey so therefore they were unable to come to the mainland . I did send a message on that afternoon about this but I did not receive a reply...

I am aware that I did not take the cancellation fee but I do feel that under the circumstances that there could have been some "goodwill".

I would be very reticent to go through booking .com again [which I have used a lot over the years] due to this disappointing incident.

The booking number was [protected] at a cost of £206.55.

I would be very much appreciate a reply.

Best Regards. Mrs Walsh

Desired outcome: A reply would be appreciated

Contacted customer services to say we had been charged for a pet we don't have and would they refund. Told we had to send proof of payment which is not due for 4 days. Really unhelpful, very difficult to understand and felt like they really didn't care or try and help.

I would expect better from a companies customer services and an completely unhappy with having to provide invoices when its booking.com job and surely they already have that, absolutely ridiculous.

Booking.com Bad customer service...they just dont care

I had such a horrible experience with booking.com this past vacation that I would def not be booking with them ever again!

We drove 16 hours to our destination with 3 kids just to get there and find out that booking OVERBOOKED us.

I tried calling and they said I should start the process of relocating. So I did. This was around 8:30 pm….at MIDNIGHT I had nothing! No one would do anything, all the representatives from out of USA, WOULD DO NOTHING! Jjust tell me to wait for the email with a list of properties for me to choose from. Its been 7 days I did not get that email!

By midnight I was driving around looking for hotels ON MY OWN because of a booking.com mistake! I finally found one but it ended up costing double what I had pay to booking.com

This ruined out first day, our kids were miserable after a long day driving, our budget the trip was ruined and booking.com DON’T EVEN CARE! They will never see my money again…..
