I planned a trip to ******* so I booked a hotel through Super.com. Since my travel plan is 100% confirmed, I made a non-refundable reservation. However, I later learned that this hotel does not accept guests under 21 years old. I called the hotel, and they confirmed this policy. The age limit was not mentioned on either the information page or the booking confirmation. When I contacted the hotel, they agreed to issue a full refund (my email conversation with the hotel is attached), but said I needed to inform the website about the age restriction preventing me from checking in. When I contacted Super.com, they requested a formal confirmation document from the hotel to process my refund. However, the hotel insists that I must contact the website first and refuses to provide any formal confirmation directly to customers. Neither party is facilitating my request, with each instructing me to reach out to the other. I believe it should be Super.com's responsibility to address this issue since my order was made with them and they did not provide any information about the age limit. The hotel already agreed to fully refund me if Super.com reach out to them. The customer service staff at ******************** refused to contact the hotel. In this case, the hotel won't get the money, I won't get the service, but Super.com get to keep the fee I paid. Is this even reasonable?Business Response

Hi ******,
Thank you for bring this matter to our attention. Our hotel rooms are sourced from different partners including Expedia, Booking, Priceline as well as wholesalers to get you the best rates, and what makes us special is our access to exclusive deals.Please understand that, as a third-party booking we must have valid written approval from the property to confirm their approval to issue a refund.
Our Amendments team is currently validating approval with the accommodation and the travel partner. They will follow up with you as soon as possible.
We appreciate your patience so far.

Reserved a hotel room with what was being sent as Super.com. From what staff workers ****** and ***** said, they were listed as Priceline in the system of Double Tree, and Super did a bait and switch and DID NOT reserve me the room advertised. the location they booked was a franchise and NOT a corporate Hilton location that had their own set of rules for which I did not meet and I was denied to be checked into the room. ( **************** guest service *****) Although the room was PAID for, double tree required a hold of incidentals and parking on a major credit card of approved brands for which I DIDNOT have therefore they could NOT check me in. The manager ****** stated he was canceling the room with no cancellation fees (view attachments). He had me call Priceline because according to his system, the room showed under a Priceline account. they apologized and stated ***** WOULD HAVE TO reverse charges. The room went from a temp authorization to a charge and SUPER has yet to reverse the charge. They made me go to some website and submit docs and then I noticed the authorization went to a full payout.Doubletree REFUSED me check in. Advised cancellation cost to be waived. I seek a FULL REFUND back to card. I would appreciate a free hotel stay for the inconvenience this caused on the trip.Business Response

Complaint Against super.com for Excessive Cancellation Fee - Order B_11717092 To the Better Business Bureau,I am writing to express my concern and lodge a formal complaint against super.com for imposing an excessive service fee on a cancelled booking well in advance of the stay. This complaint pertains to my reservation (Order B_11717092) at ***************************, scheduled from December 1st to December 4th, 2023.Incident Overview:Booking and Prompt Cancellation: On October 22nd, I booked a stay at 3 PM and cancelled it by 6 PM the same day, more than a month before the scheduled stay.Communications with super.com: Following cancellation, I promptly informed super.com and provided all necessary cancellation confirmations. Despite supplying both an email record and a formal cancellation letter from the hotel on November 20th, super.com imposed a hefty amendment service fee of $576.06, only partially refunding the initial amount.Points of Concern:Disproportionate Cancellation Fee: The fee is excessively high, especially considering the advance notice and minimal involvement from super.com.Transparency Issues: I was not informed about such a significant fee for early cancellations at the time of booking.Delayed and ******************* The refund process was inefficient, marked by delayed responses and excessive documentation requests, indicative of poor customer service.Resolution Sought:In light of these points, I request a full refund of the $576.06 amendment service fee. This charge is unwarranted and unjust, given the circumstances of the early cancellation and the lack of substantial services rendered by super.com. I believe this fee contradicts fair business practices.I appreciate the BBBs attention to this issue and hope for a prompt and fair resolution.Sincerely,XinyueBusiness Response

Since that time i have made numerous phone calls to the help desk and received an email on Nov 22 from *******************, Super.com Supervisor advising me that my refund had been processed and I needed to wait 3-5 days for it to post to my bank. I waited but the only refund I have received is $204.30. I have sent several emails to ******************* with no response and have continued to call the help desk. they continue to maintain that I have received my refund and will take no further action and refuse to let me talk to a supervisor.

This is a continuation of complaint ********; it has not been resolved and Super.com has still not refunded the full amount for my cancellation of hotel reservation B11655015. They refunded $204.30 of the $2697.26 total for the reservation. The only response I have received from the business is another copy of the refund voucher for $204.30. This has not resolved my remaining refund due of $2492.96 I called them again on Jan 9 and the customer service rep said that I only paid $250.85 for my original reservation B10691169 on Aug 14, 2023. This is the first time I have been told this and I have no record of that charge. The actual charge was $2492.96 as shown on my credit card statement (Atch 1). I cancelled B10691169 on Oct 18, 2023 and received a refund of $2492.96. I immediately rebooked B11655015 and was charged $2697.26 The refund and the new charge are shown on my credit card statement (Atch 2). I cancelled B11655015 on Nov 22, 2023 and only received a refund of $204.30 as shown on my credit card statement (Atch 3) I immediately called customer service that day and have been arguing with them every since. Somehow they have intermingled my refund of $2492.96 from reservation B10691669 with my refund due of $2697.26 for cancellation of reservation B11655015. I am still owed $2492.96. I am not satisfied and do not want to close the complaint.Business Response

They still owe me $2492.96. I have provided copies of my credit card statements showing I paid $2492.96 for reservation B10691669 on Aug 14 which I cancelled on Oct 18 and received a full refund of $2492.96. I rebooked reservation B11655015 on that same day (Oct 18) and was charged $2697.26 as shown on the same credit card statement i previously submitted.. These are again attached.

Upon reviewing your case, we noticed that the chargeback process has been initiated. This indicates that you've disputed the claim with your bank or payment provider. Unfortunately, once the chargeback process begins, we are unable to take any further action on the matter.
It's important to note that this case is from almost a year and a half ago. We also observed that there was no cancellation processed within the grace ******* If you had reached out directly to the accommodation to modify or cancel your stay, this should have been communicated immediately, and you would have been provided with written documentation.
Our dedicated Chargeback team is actively gathering all necessary documentation and will submit it to the card processor for mediation. For any resolution or updates, it is imperative to continuing the process through your financial institution.
We appreciate your understanding and patience in this matter.Initial Complaint

It's possible that you inadvertently signed up for the Super+ membership. The membership does come with various benefits, including Cash Advance, Credit building, and up to 10% Cashback on travel.
