      I booked a hotel room for two nights, unknowingly with reservations.com and not the actual hotel. They did not tell me they were charging my credit card immediately, during the call and that I wouldn't be able to change the card charged when booking. I called reservation.com customer service and they refused to change the credit card or cancel the booking and rebook using my corporate card. So now I'm personally having to pay $385.90 because they failed to notify me that they were charging me and refuse to change the payment method.

      Guest has been offered a partial refund even though the hotel confirmed the room was used for the full stay.

      Booked a room at the ****** price was quoted. After putting in credit card information, it went directly to confirmed with $100.00 in extra fees. These fees were never divulged until after reservation confirmed and I had to go to my email confirmation to retrieve billing details. There was never an opportunity to review any charges until after reservation was confmed. It was never divulged that the reservation was nonrefundable until confirmed. I called within 2 minutes to cancel and was told that too bad.

      On 9/14/22 I booked a room with ********** Inn in Richardson, TX for the weekend of 10/7/22. The following day I notice that I had been charged for twice for my room. I contacted the hotel only to find out that I had actually booked the room through a 3rd party, Reservations.com. I called Reservations.com to have my money for the double charge refunded & was told to send a screen shot of our account, I did immediately. I also disputed the charge with my bank. I have been unable to speak with anyone at customer support. On 9/21 I called Reservations.com to cancel my room completely & was informed that my room was non-refundable, after many phone calls they finally agreed to give me a refund through******* to which I have never received. I spoke with the hotel night manager & he discovered that Reservations.com has "hijacked" their website. I have a chain of emails regarding the double charge that I can forward to you. After looking up Reservations.com on your website I feel that I have been taken advantage of & can not resolve this situation without some further help. I am seeking a full refund from Reservations.com in the amount of $983.76 for the room I booked & cancelled & the additional room charge that they made in error.

      I mistakenly made a hotel reservation on reservations.com on 9/27/2022 at 10:23AM. I intended to book direct with the hotel. This was a business trip and my company does not accept expense receipts from 3rd party booking vendors.

      I cancelled the reservation on the same day 9/27/2022 at 12:49PM. The total charge $359.64 + $17.85 booking fee. I was only refunded $86.54, leaving a delta of $273.10 + $17.85 booking fee. Understanding that the booking fee was non-refundable, i am still owed a refund of $273.10 that was denied to me when I called to report the issue.

      The guest has now been refunded by the hotel directly for the duplicate booking. We have also processed a partial refund since our booking was used.
