Expedia

To expedia

I was charged for a one night stay at the michelet odeon hotel in paris on that I booked through expedia.
I cancelled the booking a few days before my trip and received confirmation of the cancellation.
I was informed that I would not be charged for the cancellation.
According to the hotel they were not informed by expedia that I had cancelled the booking and charged me 214 euro for one night as a no show and informed your company accordingly.

Even computers make mistakes. And this is clearly such an occurrence.
I later received from expedia a computer generated request to give a review about a hotel where I had never stayed!

Dear Choon Hong,

thank you for your email.

I would like to apologise for the delay.

In relation to your bank statement, we need it as an attachment as we cannot receive or view images directly added to the email.

However, we did not charge you for any insurance. I would advise you to contact Mondial Assistance Singapore SG in order to cancel with them and receive a refund.

I hope this has helped to clarify your query.

Hi Pradzy,

It's had been a week and there is no response from your counter part. Is ridiculous to make the refund process for difficult. I had provided the proof of transaction many times and you all can keep asking me again and again? What wrong is with you all? I attached one more time. Please do not ask the for it again!

Mondial Assistance Singapore SG is the $99 billed by your company for the additional excess insurance. The ET Online Transport is for the car rental. Can u see the attached proof?

Dear Choon Hong,
Thank you for your email regarding your refund.
Unfortunately there is no record of a charge for insurance on the booking AU763197280 either.

Could you provide proof of the transactions i.e a bank statement showing the charges so we can investigate this further.

employee deal with: 1st charlie
2nd Jackie[manager]
3rd Steve(highest level manager) according to him

all i needed to do is change my reservation and have to use my airline credit,
it took them 4 hours to figure out what to do.
and after waiting for so long Mr.Steve is showing all his attitude that he can by ignoring and keeping on pause and when i ask are you listening and i got reply that i was waiting for you to finish.
i deal with expedia a lot...i book with them a lot...i was ready to pay 300 dollars penalty for changing my flights, but the way i felt and deal with some oversmart employees who thinks that they are above everyone is just ridiculous.
I personally use expedia for my buisness, but i make sure my clients are happy when they leave my property so that its benefit to both...
what i feel today with expedia is just ridiculous, they have became so big company that they do not care about their clients, some one need to teach them manners...

Morning,

We reserved the Ann Arbor South Hotel on State Street for the 16th-17th, however when we got there they had our reservation at the 15th to the 16th which is not at all what we reserved through expedia. When we got to the hotel Susie said to contact Expedia for a refund but I spent 2 hours on Saturday with Expedia and then one hour today for them to tell me that I needed to contact the hotel (even though I was told by Susie to contact Expedia). I am frustrated because I was charged twice, one charge of $172.04, and one charge of $196.46 because they said we were a no show but we weren't we never booked the 15th. I paid almost $370 for one night at your [censor] hotel. It's been a horrible experience all around and in fact I will be contacting the BBB as well as the attorney General. All I am asking is for one of the charges be removed and no one will help me.. I have the pictures if u need to see those as well. I hope to hear from someone because this WHOLE experience was bad, so bad that I'll never book a hotel with you, or through Expedia again, I have been given the run around, given false information, had expedia screw up my reservation dates and been sent on a wild goose chase, please have someone call me or email me ASAP at [protected] the money I paid you I could have stayed at the Kensington pictures below.. also the stairs to our room in room #214 was death trap.. the railings are almost falling down and the steps are shaky. see pics below of the room.

My fiancé and I booked a flight and hotel stay in Alabama this coming weekend in order to attend a funeral of a close family member. Due to the fact that this was a sudden death, we did not have enough money to book on one credit card the insurance of the flights. However, we called earlier today and spoke to an associate at Expedia who claimed that we could split the payments for the insurance and the hotel stay/flight. After we disconnected with the first associate we searched the entire site and was unable to locate this option. We ended up calling Expedia back, where we ended up speaking to a supervisor who had guaranteed us that we were able to still book the insurance in case of any needed changes on flights due to personal reasons, weather, etc. However, this manager mentioned that we needed to call the insurance company directly within 24 hours of the purchase and explain the situation. He was kind of enough to compensate us $100 and provide us with the direct # for the insurance. When my fiancé called the insurance they told us they could only file claims. Instead they directed us back to Expedia to resolve this issue. My fiancé called Expedia customer service a third time where he was on hold for an hour to speak to a manger. This second manager was rude and not understanding in anyway. She avoided the fact that two of their representatives previously my fiancé spoke to earlier in the day (one being a manger), had provided us with two different explanations. However, both of those previous employees of Expedia indicated that we could indeed in fact split the payment to book an insurance for our flight. We also checked with American Airlines that mentioned that a flight change would cost us $200 a piece. So in the instance that we have to stay long in Alabama, we will be out of $400. The $100 that was compensated from Expedia from the first manager will not help us with that kind of situation. We are extremely disappointed and will no longer do any business with them any longer in the future. Expedia you need to train all your employees to understand your policies. We spent three hours of the day trying to resolve this issue instead of gathering the necessities we need for our trip. It was a waste of our time and money to ever book with Expedia! I'm disgusted and will be sure to send the message across to family members and friends who I know do plenty of business through Expedia! I will be sure that you not only lose the business of me and my fiancé, but of our family and friends!

On September 5, 2017, I arrived at my hotel in Healy, Alaska, to find out at check-in that my reservation that I booked on July 30, 2017, had been cancelled the same day as I made the reservation. The only email I received from Expedia/AARP Travel Site dated July 30, 2017, said: "Your reservation is confirmed. No need to call to reconfirm." At the time of check-in, the reservation was still showing up in my Itineraries as "In Progress." The hotel said Expedia/AARP cancelled my reservation because they had overbooked the hotel. Expedia/AARP said the hotel cancelled my reservation. I don't care who cancelled the reservation. I booked through Expedia/AARP and they should have notified me that the reservation had been cancelled so that I could book another hotel. My two night stay ended up costing me an additional $150 because everything was booked for the Labor Day holidays. There's obviously a problem with Expedia/AARP Travel Site's booking software that would allow this to occur.

After the hurricane I was trying to get back home but was unable to get my ticket rebooked, my original return date was September 10th but due to Hurricane Irma I was unable to so Tuesday September 12th I was trying to get back home I called Expedia from September the 8th that was a Friday because I heard on the news that the airport would be closed in Fort Lauderdale Saturday and Sunday I told them I wanted to rebook my tickets for that Tuesday for September the 12th I gave them all five of the names and told them to rebook it please they said it was no problem that if the airport will be open they would have done it, I called them again giving them my information and told them the airport will have been open that was Monday I was on hold for an hour and 15 minutes giving them my information of my family for us to get home i told them the airport was open Tuesday and I told them I wanted to get on that flight to get back to the Bahamas the flight was at 1pm so please book, they then told me that they would do it also to please call the airport at Silver Airlines I let them know that we wanted to get on that flight I told silver Airlines and they told me that Expedia had to book it they were just waiting on them. Tuesday morning we got to the airport and they told us that Expedia never called or try to contact them in any way there is nothing they that that they could have done to rebook our ticket the system would not allow them to Expedia how to do it I called Expedia again they had me on hold for another 2 hours an was telling me that they could not rebook our ticket silver Airlines had to so we were there for a total of 6 hours and end up missing our flight to get back home Expedia did not help us in any way we had to get five other tickets for me and my family on another airline to get back home and now they are telling me that I cannot even get my money back and I had the protection plan also Expedia you guys suck I would never travel with you again!

Impressed by how their customer service works. It was sarcasm.
I canceled my booking. According to their policies, I should get a refund in full. It's been a month since my first attempt to get it. I called numerous times and talked I think to all of their reps and all of them told me the same and fed me with promises to refund soon, tomorrow, tomorrow.
I don't know if I ever succeed, I'm tired of waiting and they really pissed me off with doing absolutely nothing. Stay away, use booking.com or something else, I don't know.

This is the second time working with Expedia. The first time I vowed I would never give them another chance, but after a few years I thought I would give them a try again, the first time I booked a flight with Expedia, it was my mistake and I wasn't paying close enough attention to what I was doing. I have been disappointed for the second time. I was trying to get a flight changed to an earlier time on the same day and there was no help in this process. My family just wants to see my nephew graduate form the navy and we were not informed of the schedule they had until just now. It is very upsetting that we need to pay pretty much for a whole new ticket and fees to ensure we get to see him graduate. I wish that in the future there would be some extenuating circumstances that would allow this kind of change without the huge pay out. I would suggest that a fee of $50 per ticket be more reasonable than the difference of a ticket and then adding fees on top of that. Thank you for hearing me and I hope that this will be a consideration in the future through airline companies and making travelers feel a little more at easy when traveling and booking through second party sites. Thank you

We booked a trip To Florida, 2 days before we were suppose to fly out, hurricane Irma started to head inland, category 5; and eventually hit Florida. We were able to switch our first flight but unable to switch our return, even though we only canceled due to the hurricane. Spent 4 hours in total trying to get ahold of anyone, to eventually be lied to, and got no where. Your company claimed to speak with west jet who was our returning flight, but when we contacted west jet, they had no notes of any in regards to our situation. A family member literally got there flight changed and fee waived an hour before we tried, just had to pay the difference. We expected the same deal. The result was an hour waiting while employees on your end gave us the run around. We know we were lied to, the supervisor name they gave us didn't even work at west jet. Completely unexceptable to try make customers pay fees when the only reason they had to change was out of pure safety percautions, due to the biggest hurricane that hit the states. We expect to get the same treatment our family members received. This is the first time I have ever had to complain about travel and feel completely disgusted with how we have been treated. I expect a genuine follow up.

Screwed by Expedia.
Buy the ticket and once any problem arises, their favorite response is *Adious* keep talking and we will figure out why its all your fault.

I'm stuck in Ecuador because of Hurricane Irma and no way back to the US until late next week due to disruptions.
Decided to spend the time visiting in Costa Rica, checked out flights hotels car rental and made a number of appointments.
The ticket was from Quito Ecuador to San Jose Costa Rica
Spent the money with Expedia only to find out when I arrived at the Copa counter, that they will not let me board due to the fact that I didn't have a Yellow Fever vaccination document.
Called Expedia, and their response, Not our fault, you should know all this. Expedia even pointed out that Copa, ( and I've since learned other airlines) posts this information on their web site. They fail to see the obvious, that if other companies in the industry deem it important enough to warn their customers of this issue, why wont Expedia? The final upshot, , , I'm stuck in south America with no way home, spent a ton rebooking my other flights to fly out of San Jose, but can't get there from here. Even lost a night in a San Jose hotel, (and had to pay for it) and Expedia's response to it all, , , , , firmly planting their thumbs up their [censored] and telling me to read the fine print on their web site. You know, the bit where they say that If any issue arises we are going to fold like a cheap tend and disavow any responsibility for the service WE PROVIDE or the product we sell.
In short, we've got your money so please stop bothering us.

I'm now going to spend a fortune in getting airline tickets somewhere else, at "The day of"prices. Thanks Expedia, it sure was a great idea using your services NOT!

Unethical, dishonest, bottom feeders.
Do not trust them, do not do business with them.
The will not assist you should there ever be any problem, and when traveling, problems arise.
This is the only time I've used them, I tend to buy direct from the airlines, I will never use them again and strongly suggest others do the same.

Hey, my name is Melanie,

I will never bay a ticket trough expedia gain or flight with JetBlue or Tap Portugal. I'm not a complaining person but I always step up whenever something is wrong.
I bought a ticket through expedia going to Madrid, unfurtunatly I couldn't used it because I had a last name problem, I was at the aiport for 3 hours over the phone trying to get this problem take care. However, neither expedia, JetBlue or Tap Portugal took the responsibility of getting my last name changed in my ticket while my husband called before baying the ticket to find out which last name I should use for the ticket.
Moreover, I have different last name because I got married. I lost $700.00 in a ticket and I couldn't get even a credit for it. I had to bay another ticket right the way that was $1600.00 because it was a family trip.
It's so inconsiderate from all this airline industry because we all work hard for our money. I wish I can do more that writing a complain and I tried to called expedia but there is no solution for my problem, I finally spended $2300.00 for two tickets and I couldn't get a refund or a credit. I'm very hurt and this will be my last time with this airline companies.

I was charged by both expedia and the hotel.
08/29/2017

Pos/check card withdrawal / expedia [protected] expedia.com waus
$151.73

And by the hotel
08/31/2017
Pos/check card withdrawal / hampton inn west seneca nyus
$121.71

Please advise.

Also please make sure I do not have an open reservation for this weekend at the same location. Thank you.

Itinerary # [protected]
I booked my ticket to India on August 28, 2017 for $1099. Next day the price on Expedia dropped to $1020. I sent my claim after completely filling up the the online form along with an image (from Expedia website).

As every one knows that after the search page on Expedia, the first screen shows many options. On selection of the most suitable option, the second screen appears providing the details of selection. I selected this screen because On line form on Expedia website allows only one attachment.

Expedia has denied my claim saying connection times and details are not mentioned. I fail to understand if departure and arrival time and the flight numbers of both incoming and outgoing flights in the image are exactly the same, doesn't that mean it is a comparison of apples to apples. On top of that this price match is with Expedia website itself and not with another provider. The person reviewing the claim is also in a position to cross check.

Therefore, in my view the Expedia organization is not only dishonest in its claim of providing price match, but also insensitive to customer complaints.

These are my itinerary numbers: [protected], [protected] & [protected]. I book these vacation and check my points within a week if expedia was able to give me the points. I found out that there was none. So I called expedia and tried to inquire. The answer was I need to use first my booking /vacation/flight, before they can give me my points. I responded, okay. As of now, Aug 28, I found out that my points were still not given. I called up expedia and was able to talk to a person with an Indian accent. After given him the itinerary numbers, he explained that he/expedia cannot give me my points. Just to make the long story short, I was dissappointed because after the first inquiry and the statement that the first expedia staff told me that expedia will give me the points after spending/using them and almost the same scenario of the second person, expedia is 'FOOLING ME". Giving me all the nonsense of justification of not giving me the points. In the first place, I "FAITHFULLY" trusted to use your company that eventually you will do your part. The Indian expedia staff, even told me that in the future, he promise that expedia will give me the point. REALLY!, the other first person said that to me. I think there will be no future for Expedia on my next purchases anymore.

Expedia made two errors: first, they wrote my trip on two separate itineraries which prevented me from getting home after the first leg of my connecting flight was cancelled and, second, Expedia booked my flight incorrectly with insufficient time between connecting flights

Expedia booked me a flight on Air France from London to Paris with a connecting flight on XL airlines from Paris to New York. The layover was 90 minutes. I questioned the timing and said I did not think that that was enough time between flights. The Expedia rep assured me that it was and that legally all I needed was 60 minutes. Again, on the morning of the flight I spoke with Expedia and questioned the timing. Again, I was assured that that was plenty of time.

On the day of the flight, Air France overbooked the flight from London to Paris and I was bumped from my flight. Accordingly, I missed my connection from Paris to New York.

Air France agreed to rebook me on the next flight to Paris but they were not responsible from getting me to New York because Expedia had written the flights on two different itineraries, I was not entitled to any assistance in getting me from Paris to New York and I had a purchase a very expensive one way ticket for same day travel from Paris to New York.

I was also advised that the insurance I purchase with Expedia would not cover me.

I told Expedia that while I was told that the tickets ere booked on two different itineraries, I was not informed that that could result in this possible problem. I was told that it had to be written on two separate itineraries because it was two different airlines but not informed of the potential dangers. If I had been informed, I would not have agreed to such an arrangement. I depended on the expertise of Expedia to book the flights properly.

I requested a refund of my costs for the tickets but Expedia, after 6 hours on the phone, told me that they were not responsible and no accommodation would be made.

Secondly, I am claiming that the 90 minute difference in the connecting flights was insufficient. Even if I had made the London to Paris flight, I would not have been able to make the connecting flight to New York. As proof, on the following day, when I did take the flight from London to Paris, it took me more than 4 hours to deplane, retrieve my luggage, get through customs, passport control and security, and recheck my luggage with XL Airlines. I have the entire 4+ hour ordeal on video to prove my case which I would be happy to submit.

I am making this one last effort to resolve this situation before I take further action with all the different social media sites, FTC, Consumer Affairs, BBB, Victims of Expedia, and the courts.

I ask for Expedia to contact me and make the refund.

I booked 3 rooms in Louisville for the Derby. I cancelled those rooms well within the hotel policy. I got charged anyway. Came to discover, with no help from Expedia, that Expedia duplicated that reservation but with my billing info and not Expedia account info. So I had no idea the hotel had additional rooms reserved in my name. When I had not cancelled these additional rooms the hotel charged my Amex card. I have spent 4 months and over a dozen calls with Expedia trying to get this resolved. Customer service has mislead me and out right lied. I am about ready to go to small claims. Expedia does not own up to mistakes.

This was a horible experience 2 hrs delay leaving Tijuana to Mexico City no explanation just waited and waited, then again another 2 hrs delay from Mexico City to Tijuana; this was a bit different for security reasons which I deeply appreciate but two different airlines both delay on same trip.
If the passager arrives late you are treated so disrespectful but if it's the airline you are expected to just put up with it.

I needed to get some information after reservation I made through Expedia. I called the hotel and was said that there was no any confirmation, even though the Expedia said everything was ok. I tried to contact the customer service to solve the problem, but they only say that they work on it and that's all. I don't know what sort of problem they had to just call the hotel and confirm my reservation right after my request. Why one has to make tons of calls to get what they wanted? My reservation was confirmed one day before the travel. But what if it didn't happen? You would really let me down and ruin my trip.
