1. On 10/29/22, 11:34 AM I booked a parking spot through Way.com for my flight out of *** airport at 5 AM in the morning. I paid $71.99 for that advance booking for better rate and peace of mind to avoid last minute struggle to park.2. I went to the location and there was no spot and the parking people told that they are not responsible. 3. I called way.com as I was running a risk of missing my flight. They asked me to ark else where and will pay for that. It was 5 AM in the morning and I was in the unknow area and have to struggle through finding a new place to park while going through a risk of loosing my flight.4. I parked at other location and paid $120.28.5. Way.com not only indulging in practice of booking spot in place where usually people running a risk of missing flight but not not paying $120.28 back. Instead is saying we will cancel booking and pay only $71.99.6. I want them to at least refund the full amount that I ended up paying because of their fault but avoid wrong business practice to book spot for people in advance when there is no spot. People are in a rush situation specially when they have to catch flight at 5 AM in the morning.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because: They are saying same things that I mentioned in my complaint. Nothing new. Question is why people do an advance booking is for a peace of mind that I will not have to struggle at last minute for parking while catching flight at the airport where you are always short on time and to get better rate. In this case I booked it through them for both in advance.I ended up going through chaos because of them and has to go through a lot at 5 AM in the morning to find a new place to park my car while running a risk of missing the flight. At the same time I ended up paying higher rate. Ideally i should be compensated for pain and chaos because of them. Instead I am only asking them to pay the money I ended up paying because of their faulty business practices. Similar to if I can not board a flight because it is overbooked than airline is responsible to ensure you reach your destination without charging you extra at the same time they compensate with other things as a good gesture to customer.
15% in next booking could be a good gesture only if they refund the full amount i ended up paying because of them. As a customer I am not responsible on how their system work or not work.
These actions will help them to improve their practices in future so that other customers do not struggle at 5 AM in the morning to park their car because they are booking with no control on the booking spot. This is incorrect practice as they are not non-profit organization but making money from these booking and should be responsible for pain and financial loss of their customers.
Sincerely,

Hi *********,
We apologize for the inconvenience and we understand your frustration. As mentioned previously, unfortunately, we don't have an option to refund more than you have paid to us. Please understand that we do not operate any of the facilities directly and it's completely up to the lot's decision whether to accommodate more vehicles than the reserved online spots given to us. Thanks for your understanding and patience in this matter.

I booked weeks in advance (OGI24851195) for *********** Oct 5-Oct 12, 2022. My confirmation details from way.com clearly state self-parking with camera surveillance. The self-parking is what influenced our decision to book with way. Upon arriving at the address, the gate was closed and locked with a sign indicating the lot was temporarily closed. Having to catch an international flight within a few hours, we had to scramble to find alternate parking as most places required 24 hr advance notice. Way did not provide us the service they sold us and I feel I am entitled to a full refundBusiness Response

I am rejecting this response because:
I have disputed the charge with my credit card company and received the funds back. You then sent my credit card company info stating that I didnt cancel before check in. My credit card company returned the funds back to you. I then called to reopen the dispute, at which time you have changed your story and informed my credit card company that I received the product/goods which is a total lie. The dispute has been closed by my credit card company and you have my payment. I last sent an email to your customer service on October 30th again asking to have my money refunded and they havent bothered to respond.

Prepaid my parking for over $200. I showed up at the parking lot. The lot attendant said they didnt have a spot for **!! Found another spot under stress because we needed to catch a flight. Once at the airport I tried to cancel the parking and to my dismay I wasnt able to! The cancel button was greyed out and unavailable. I contacted customer service and they said that they have a policy that cancellation is not available after your check in time. All we did was show up at the lot and they didnt have a spot! How on earth can we NOT get our money back?! Zero tolerance with their policy.Business Response

I purchased 3 days of airport parking for $35.06 through Way for 11am on 10/28 to 11:30pm on 10/30. On 10/28, I entered the garage. As I was leaving the garage on 10/30 at 2pm, the gate screen informed me that I had only paid $23.38 (2 days worth of parking) through Way and that I was due an additional $11.54 for day 3 though I had already paid for it. I was forced to pay again to exit the garage. When I contact Way's customer service and presented my receipts, they did not acknowledge my complaints at all and kept repeating that I cannot cancel an order though I did not request a cancellation. I was requesting a refund for the double charge I had received. ***'s response acknowledges no fault. They can overcharge their customers and pocket the money, stating to the customer that they cannot do anything about it.Business Response

Hi - when I reviewed way.com for parking near ***************** for 5 days, the site highlighted $10/day for parking. When I actually booked the parking that highlighted $10/day , way.com actually charged $360. I realized it several days later when I looked at expenses on my credit card. Their site was extremely deceptive. The airport itself charges $16/ day so, of course, I would have never booked with way.com had I known it would be $360! Theyre site is not honest, is extremely misleading and has caused a lot of harm to my family.Business Response

OGI25232084 Is the Order number. I rented a parking space for a vacation my family had planned. I went to park at the lot only to be told there was a issue with the structure and it was closed down two days ago. I was also informer Way.com knew about the issue and was to contact the customers. I was never contacted, I went to park before flying out of ****** and had no where to park. I had to delay my time at the airport search all around for somewhere else to park in a area I am unfamiliar with all because this company chose not to contact there customers and completely ruin there vacations. When I contacted support they just refunded the original cost and disconnected. Did not even care of what I had to go through due to them.Business Response

I paid $60 for parking at the ************ in ********* for an event on 10/22 through way.com. When I arrived the person managing the lot says the because the event was cancelled they are going to refund everyone because parking is normally free at the Sahara. My problem is that because I booked through a 3rd party (way.com) I will not get directly refunded. I asked way and they said "We do not provide free parking." I did not ask for parking. They did not even read everything I had mentioned and just said that they would not refund me. The parking lot was free and the employees there said I should be refunded so I am not sure why Way will not refund me.Business Response

This is in regard to booking number OGI25114905 - Made a reservation via way iPhone app - after finding out that *********** Long term A and Long term B as well as Express parking was closed - never experienced that - so decide to use way and find a hotel to park the car for almost 2 weeks - Booked through way.com - got confirmation - drove directly to hotel - to learn that the shuttle service will not depart for another 45 minutes - was racing against time because we already wasted some time trying to find alternate parking - the lady at the hotel said that I can request for a refund through third party (way) and that it would not be of a problem. In that case - we decide to go ahead and park at *********** daily parking at the highest daily rate because of time factor. Upon parking and checked in - was not able to do a live chat so decide to send an email to way.com about the situation. They replied saying not able to refund because all submission must be done prior to check in. In that case - I have called and spoke with ******, one of their support agent. She herself called the hotel directly and spoke with the very same lady who told us that we can get refund. She confirmed with ******* So ****** asked me to submit paid parking ticket after we check out (Return) - Almost two weeks later - sent in a snapshot of the parking at daily parking - cost me $132.00 - Way replied with same comment - Even tho ****** said that they will process after I submit paid parking slip with BWI Daily parking. Now I am out of $132 plus $62.91 paid to Way.com - Am quite frustrated as I have never parked at the hotel and the lady at hotel said no problem to get full refund. And Way.com is not doing this even tho they have already spoken with and confirmed with lady at the hotel. All I am asking is a refund of $62.91 from way.com. This would be much appreciatedBusiness Response
