Courteous, professional and knowledgeable of the task
I booked 2 nights 1 room at Best Western in Pompton Plains NJ through HotelPlanner for total of 276.47. Everything was good up until my mom got a call in the morning that my dad is really sick and we had to go home, back to NH. Now I called HotelPlanner and they said they can refund me for the night I didn't stay at. It's been 2 Weeks and Counting, I have called several times and left humorous number of voicemails. I call and they redirect me to a woman who never answers or even responds. I called again 4 days later and they did samething, after I asked nicely to not redirect me to that woman. I hung up, called and asked again for a good 5 minutes finally the girl didn't redirect me to that lady. But, They are still leading me on, telling me they will refund me, they just have to talk to the hotel manager and get the receipt of the night I stayed for and then they will refund me. I have the receipt but for some reason and I don't know why but they have to talk to the hotel manager, they can't just take my receipt I got from the hotel. I called the hotel manager and she told me there is no one by that name that called or left her any voicemail messages. So if it is 2 weeks and counting, I shall just say that my $138.23 is not ever gonna be returned back to me. They ripped me off and I hope you take my advice and not go with this site because if any problem randomly occurs at all, they won't resolve it. They'll keep you hanging. Also, they deleted my bad review on Facebook so they're just trying to lure people in thinking that this company is worth 4.4 star rating when they aren't worth that. Because they ripped me off a lot of money, I am never recommending this site to anyone. Because this happened to me, then I know for sure I am not the only one that this is happening to.
Greetings,
We appreciate the opportunity to review you concern and apologize for this experience. Our reservation specialist was able to contact the hotel on your behalf and the reason that you were not yet refunded was because the hotel was having a difficult time locating your reservation.
HotelPlanner was able to provide the hotel the company’s internal information over the course of the date that you booked your reservation and the hotel was able to locate the reservation under a different person’s name so unfortunately HotelPlanner was not made aware that you modified the name on the reservation internally with the hotel which led to the confusion and refund not yet being processed.
Nonetheless, the hotel was able to provide the requested documentation to our reservation specialist and you have been issued a refund for the last night of your reservation that was not utilized. Please note that refunds do take between 3 – 7 business days for the funds to be allocated back to your account.
Regards,
Hotel Planner Management Team

We attempted to make a reservation with the hotel hyatt in the meadowlands in Washington pa. The person who got on the phone represented theirselves as the hotel and took our information she told us it.was ahold on card she also gave no information that let us know she was not the hotel we had called.no room or confirmation eitherand at no time did she tell us it was nonrefundable. An hour later at te store the card was declined due too the person who scammed us had taken the funds from our account causing our normal bills that would be Coming through to overdraft our account several times. Also causing issues with wedding plans we were making to the point to cancellation we called to cancel and we were told the funds would be refunded and she said it would be back on our card with 7 12 days.we recieved an email talking about a voucher for our amount.H******* we need our funds back in our account to pay our regular bills that have been reversed due to this scam.we already contacted our bank.to report this scam of a company we also will be filing a police report and contacting kdka to report this fraud. We contacted the hotel and they said the reservation had been put thru expediia for may20 and canceled but this scammer never mention expedia and also lied many times.

Answer: I attempted to email, submitted a support request, called numerous times, requested call backs (received 0), attempted to chat and was continuously ignored or "disconnected", never once reaching anyone that would or could help me. Customer Service at HotelPlanner is nonexistent.
Answer: HP's staff is full of deceitful and despicable liars. Do not use HP for planning any trips if you wish to have smooth, happy travels.
Answer: Just do not use! HP is awful and they will spoil your travel plans!
