Agoda refund on cancelled booking

Agoda does not want to refund us cost of booking even the website stated that cancellation was free if cancelled within a day, which we did.
We have been in extensive discussions with Agoda, even provided them proof of medical necessity to cancel but they keep asking for more details and reasons.
We should not have to provide this as the booking had the option of free cancellation within a certain time which we met.
I want a full refund of this booking Agoda Booking ID [protected] Check-in October 19, 2017

Agoda hotel booking that was cancelled by agoda

To whom it may concern
Re: id [protected]-1-[protected] - 17th November 2017 staying at Mitre Hotel Manchester
I made a reservation on 24th October for the Mitre hotel. I booked this hotel as it was central and close to Manchester Arena where I had purchased tickets to see Depeche Mode in concert. At the time of booking it was non refundable and confirmed that the reservation had been made. My money was taken out of my account. We arrived at the hotel at 5.30pm. The hotel advised that Agoda had cancelled the booking and the hotel was now full. Myself and the manager tried to ring Agoda but could not get through. It was now 6.15pm. the manager from the hotel said that a room was available at the other hotel which was 15 minutes walking distance. When we arrived at the hotel it was 6.30pm. We had to wait for the manager. It is now 6.45pm and the concert started at 7.30. The manager said that the room was out of order because of the condition. The room smelt of vomit from the previous guest and you could not open the window. it is now 7pm an we had drove 50 miles straight from work and we needed to get changed. I asked if we could see the room as we are now desperate and needed to get showered and dressed for the concert. The room smelt disgusting. We quickly got dressed and thankfully made it to the concert. Later that evening we had nowhere else to go so I had to return to the hotel. I sprayed perfume on the pillow and could hardly sleep. We got dressed at 8am and left the hotel. I have never experienced such an unpleasant stay and want to be compensated for our inconvenience. The Mitre hotel said that Agoda had know about the cancellation several weeks before we arrived. There had been no attempt by Agoda to contact us to make alternative arrangements.
I look forward to hearing from you

Regards
Matt Smith

Agoda refund not processed

I had made a cancellation of my booking with agoda (booking ID: [protected]) on 22-Oct-17. Even after 26 calender days, my refund has not been processed. My efforts to reach their customer care numbers remained futile as these guys simply hang on you for 8-9 minutes and then disconnect the calls automatically. Emails sent to them also remain unanswered.

Agoda unauthorized credit card charges

I made a hotel booking via agoda and decided to cancel the day after. My credit card was charged an in authorized amount even though the t&c stated clearly that "there will be no charges coming through" and I select the option to pay to the hotel directly. Now I have cancelled the booking and agoda left me to deal with a unpleasant refund process as well as an international transaction cost which shouldn't be there in the first place.

Agoda I was unaware that pets were not allowed after I had paid fully for the room and the hotel employee told me to contact agoda for a full refund.

I paid fully amount room# 212 in which shortly after realized that there is a no-pet rule and I have small pet with me and had to immediately find another hotel in which did allow pets. I was told by the staff at the Econo-Lodge in Mesa, AZ to contact te Agoda Company for a full refund back on my Visa/Debit card tonight. Please contact me with any questions and/or issues in which I could be of any help in fixing this issue and be of any help with the process of regaining the funds back on my Visa card asap. Thank you ..Jessica Hollabaugh

Agoda double taxes charged

I stayed in Mercure Bugis Hotel in Singapore between 24-28 October 2017 and while checking out the hotel they charged me taxes although Agoda shows the total price with taxes. The hotel and Agoda are cheating people with tricky price show policy. Agoda shows the total price with taxes however hotel claims that the prices are without taxes. This is mutual game against to guests to get more money from costumers.

Terrible and dishonest service of both Agoda and Mercure Bugis Hotel.

Agoda howard plaza - the fern agoda booking id: [protected] billing discrepancy

On Oct 19, 2017, Emerald Starr checked out of Howard Plaza - The Fern hotel in Agra. I asked for a copy of the room bill and they said they didn't have it and I had to get it from Agoda. I was told by the front desk staff that the total room charge including taxes is Rs.5, 137/night x 3 nights = Rs.15, 411, which = USD237.11 (XE - Intl Bank Exchange Rates).

On my original booking receipt from Agoda the total price was written USD280.59. "You will be charged the USD equivalent of Rs.18, 375.25 on your pay date of October 13, 2017. Exchange rates may vary."

The final receipt from Agoda charged me USD$296.75, whereas the actual bank rate on Oct 13 for Rs.18, 375.25 = USD282.70.

I would like a credit of USD59.64 and/or a very clear explanation of how the Agoda charges were derived.

Thank you.

Submitted by Emerald Starr, Agoda Booking ID: [protected] for Howard Plaza - The Fern Hotel in Agra, India

Agoda wrong hotel name/ details given

I arrived at the Mercure hotel in Manchester, as per my confirmation email instructions, only to discover that my booking had been moved to a different hotel without my knowledge! I was split from my party and forced to stay alone in a different hotel as the Mercure hotel was now fully booked. The hotel which AGODA had actually booked me into was a budget hotel which I would never have chosen to stay in.

Agoda unauthorized saving of card details

Today I was going through the rates of Ayana hotel, Bali on agoda.com, and while checking the final rates I clicked book now, and it processed the request with my saved card details.
To my utter shock the booking got completed without asking for cvv, I understand saving the card number and other details but how can it save my cvv.
Neither it asked for any OTP. This seems to be a serious security concern to me, if this is the case I will not be using agoda for any future bookings.

Agoda unauthorized credit card charges

I booked a hotel in Budapest via Agoda and to be paid in the hotel.
When my card statement came (Mastercard), I saw that I was charged, so I cancelled my booking and they have confirmed that I should not be charged. I sent several follow-ups but received the same canned responses from different associates. I sent my credit card statement etc.

When I received my Visa card statement, I was again charged but for a different amount for the same Budapest Hotel booking. I again sent another email with all my credit card statements screenshots.

To date, I keep receiving emails that they have not received anything from me etc. and no action has been taken. To me these are fraudulent card transactions.

Agoda booking cancellation

We booked, and paid, for our private villa with pool in Ubud in June. Upon arrival at the villa today, the 9th of October after a 2.5 hour, expensive taxi ride, we were informered that we didn't have a reservation with the hotel and they were booked out. Upon trying to contact the hotel and Agoda apparently there had been an error from Agodas end even though they had already received our payment and confirmation. We were then stranded at the hotel with no food or way to contact Agoda for 3 hours. We were not informed in any way shape or form that our booking was not successful, and have now been placed in a inferior accommodation option and also forced to pay our own transfer from the current villa to the new hotel, not only did this cost us money on behalf of agodas fault, it also cost us a whole day of our holiday and we also ended up in a far inferior accommodation option. Agoda has admitted fault but I feel that we should be subsidised for our inconvenience and reality of ruining our holiday.

Agoda no room when arrive after completion of booking

Confirmed booking on agoda, been told by hotel owner that "he sell the room to someone else, no room to live in" upon arrival. Called customer service, waited for 20 minutes until someone picked up. Mr wei from hk customer service, no intention to solve problem at all, keep talking about excuses. This is not the first time bad experience with agoda, not going to use agoda for any booking any more.

Agoda I was charged. but reception told me I have not booked

This is the first time I use agoda and the experience is horrible. I saw a dicount room at 11pm. So I booked it, pay by credit card. But I didn't receive any email or given confirmation number. I thought its ok coz the hotel should have my personal detail that I have filled in the app. But when I arrive the hotel at 4am in the morning. The staff didnt find my name. And I have no booking number. And the 24 hours hotlines is totally [censor] coz no one ask me without a booking number. I leave a message and no one call me back. I have to pay so much extra to find a hotel in dark night. The company must refund me my booking coz I disnt get the room finally. And compensate the extra money that I have paid for another hotel.

Agoda quality of food

I have stopped eating at Scorebirds due of the lack of quality food they offer. Not sue if they employ a chef or manager because most is inedible.
I made the mistake of ordering chicken fingers which were cold, hard, tasteless and probably rather old. I only go to shorebirds for drinks and entertainment. They should stop serving food altogether.
The wait staff is great, but there is no visibility for a manager to complain. I have given up and go to Phillies for food then scoreboards for drinks and the shows on Fridays and Saturdays.
