I would not use this site and don't recommend it to anyone. I was told so much about the hotel we were going to stay at for example I was told that they had a hot tub, and I would have a room over looking the pool. No hot tub and I had asked the guy 4 times to make sure that there was one, and our room over looking the pool turned into a view over looking the parking lot! Plus I was told he would put in a request for a beach front view if possible, not possible since it was a hotel across the street and the only view that way was a view of the backside of another hotel. I did complain twice to them and they finally gave me back 10% off the bill, but that is yet to be seen. I will be back in touch with them again if this does not happen! Overall, I would never recommend this site to anyone ever!
I went through Res.com and they quoted me a room rate of 182 a night. By calling the motel direct I was able to get the same room for 159 a night. Even worse the pretend to be the front desk. They are crooks and avoid them anytime you can.
I went to the Delta Chelsea Hotel website and was somehow rerouted to Reservations.com to complete my reservation which I didn't realize until after I completed the booking. Then there's a message that my reservation in non-refundable. I've never heard of that in my 49 years. We booked this hotel to go to Toronto to see a concert which was, months later, cancelled due to lead singer's illness. I called Reservations.com to cancel and try to get a refund due to the circumstances. I was speaking to someone from a foreign country and all I could understand during the conversation was that I could cancel the reservation but I would under no circumstances receive any kind of refund. PLEASE STAY AWAY FROM THIS WEBSITE AND BE CAREFUL, because they claim to be an extension of Expedia so you may want to check when you book, that it doesn't re-route you to this website without you realizing it, like I did. THEY SHOULD BE SHUT DOWN and I will be reporting them to the Better Business Bureau. DON'T LET THEM TAKE YOUR MONEY.
When I looked at my credit card statement online, I discovered that I got charged $14.95 for booking. I had no idea that I wasn't dealing with the hotel when I made my reservation. I also found no information indicating that there would be a charge. I have read the Terms and Service and Policy sections. I didn't even get a confirmation from these people and had to call them to get it and the confirmation number. A while later when I called the hotel directly to ask a question, they didn't even have a reservation for us. Learning this I figured there was something wrong and I immediately used the confirmation number "reservations.com" gave me and cancelled. I don't know if they are real or scammers but I certainly don't want to do business with a company that isn't transparent in their charges and fees.
I too was mislead by this website into thinking I was booking directly with the hotel. Luckily my credit card company caught the error realizing it was US booking company. I cancelled my reservation within 5 minutes of making it but they have still charged me 30 bucks cancellation fee. Never use this site, try Booking.com instead, they are excellent.
I thought I was talking directly to a hotel. But I was with reservations.com. When I arrived at the hotel, I signed a invoice for $81.00. Reservations.com charged me $127.00. I do not understand how they can charge so much more. If I stayed one more night, the hotel would have charged me $81.00. I find it very difficult to understand why this company has not been checked by state agencies that protect consumers.
So upset, I googled Coast Bastion hotel in Nanaimo which is in Canada, I am Canadian and thought I was booking directly with the hotel. They have charged me in U.S. Dollars! It was listed in Canadian! When I called to complain they said... sorry, if you look on our website you will see its American dollars. Please don't use this website! So upset.
My wife typed into Google "Sandman Signature Hotel" in Richmond to book a Canadian hotel directly and in hind site we now see she was sent to SandmanSignature.reservations.com. At the time she assumed she was dealing with Sandman Signature directly. She was charged approx $130 US for the room that was listed at $130 Can on other sites. She was charged US currency on her Canadian card plus a $14.99 US reservation fee. I have booked hundreds of rooms over the years and rarely seen an scam so cleverly scripted. This should be criminal!
We booked a hotel in Portland OR and where charged for a hotel in Argentina.
When we called, they said it is a non refundable.
Internet scam and I am surprised they are still in business.
Do not use reservations.com for any of your bookings EVER!
This company falsely represented themselves as the Hotel - confirmed my booking - then sent me a confirmation in USFUNDS. When I complained, they charged me a 14.99 US funds fee to cancel.
This is a Canadian Hotel chain, booked in Canada, from Canada. They blamed me for not asking if it was in USFunds -
Horrible customer service - all they say is "I'm sorry - company policy"
After spending half an hour with my credit card company in fear of a fraudulent charge, I realized after reading other reviews that reservations.com had sneakily tacked on a $14.99 surcharge to an online hotel reservation I had made. There was no indication that this charge would be applied, and I not only paid more for the reservation than if I had phoned direct, I paid this hidden charge on top of it. And their customer service was horrible. I am really angry at Trip advisor too for letting such dirty businesses operate through them.
Do not make any reservation in this company, hidden fee and charge at no reason, even cancel still charge your money, please do not make reservation at this site.
I am not impressed at all by this Company. They are not upfront about the service fees. They get you hooked by advertising a lower price for the room, but don't indicate the total service fees until your card has been charges. When I called Customer service they just said that it is listed in the terms... yah like everyone reads every single sites terms... of course they know that and it is shady of them to do it this way. I told them I will never use them again and that they need to be upfront like Travelocity and other sites are.
I will NEVER use Reservations.com due to their "Service Fees" and customer service. Their final price was $14 higher, even though the room rate was cheaper. When I called I struggled to understand with her accent, and was not pleased with their customer service. Never again!
Scam artists first order. Liars, thieves and worse. Their MO is to redirect your inquiry from a legit provider (say a known hotel chain) and then tack on charges, all the while pretending they are the actual entity you were trying to do business with. They're sneaky and can catch out even a careful person.
You can successfully dispute their charges with your card provider, but you need to act promptly.
When I received my credit card bill I noticed a charge of $14.99 form www.reservations.com. We were unaware of booking through a third party and feel we were taken advantage of by this company, as we could have booked direct (which we thought we were doing) without this charge.
Beware...
Do not go through them for any reservation. I truly hope people read these comments first so they don't get ripped off. I talked with someone on phone before making reservations and found out he lied about the full price after the fact. They do not back up what they tell you. In other words they lie to get a sale. We ended up paying $600. More when we got to hotel. They told me months ago when I made reservation that hotel was paid in full and we didn't owe hotel any money. LIARS. This trip cost me more than I wanted to spend on a hotel. Reservations.com needs to be investigated and shut down. THERE IS NO DISCOUNT WITH THEM IT'S A SCAM TO GET BUSNESS.
Just another consumer that got ripped off by reservations.com. My bill said $47, when I clicked the confirm button, I got charged $70, plus another $8 when I checked in. Got the run around from customer no service, then the cold shoulder. They don't care. You'll get redirected to this site thinking your using another, buyer beware! Contact the BBB and the Nevada Attorney Generals Office and complain. If enough people stand up for themselves, something may get done about this fraudulent company.
Made a reservation for my son'so college graduation in 2016. I received confirmation with the correct date in 2016 but the website booked me for 2015 not 2016. I was charged for a no-show and had to fight to get my money back! Rip off! Stay away!
Didn't know I was booking through reservations.com and cancelled two hours later. They would not refund 14.99 "booking fee". What a scam. Be careful only deal with the hotel and make sure you don't get hijacked to their site.
Answer: Call your credit card company and report it as an unauthorized charge. You may have to cancel your card and get a new card and card number, but it's worth it.
Answer: Impossible to get money back. They're just scumbags!
Answer: Yes, this company charges a fee, which it will not refund even if you cancel your reservation within minutes!
Answer: Hello, Thank you for question. Please contact us at support@reservations.com so we can better assist you with this matter. Thank you for your consideration and we look forward to hearing back from you. Sincerely Reservations.com Support Team
Answer: It can be, if its refundable reservation. Every reservations has a different cancelation policy. Mostly last minute reservations are not cancelable.
Answer: My experience is the same. reservations.com obviously nails a lot of unsuspecting Canadians this way. They don't make any attempt to help you out when they are confronted by this way of hosing us. Its a sleazy organization.
Answer: Hello Brodie, We have sent you an email this morning regarding your concerns. Please email us directly so we may assist you. Sincerely, Customer Support Reservations.com
Answer: Yes, you were billed. Call your credit card company and report it as an unauthorized charge. Your company should remove it, send you a new card and assign you a new card number.
