      I am writing to address an issue with a flight booking made through Expedia. On July 11, I booked a flight for $242.70. However, on July 31, I had to call ******** service to cancel and rebook my return flight. Originally, the flight was from *** to ***, but I requested to cancel it and book a flight from SDU to CGH. The agent, ***** confirmed that my request was possible and proceeded with the booking, informing me that the cost would now be $265.10.I inquired about receiving a refund for the original charge, and although **** seemed a bit confused, she assured me that I would be refunded. I clarified my question to ensure understanding, and she confirmed that I would indeed receive a refund. I provided my credit card number, and after repeating it several times, she asked how I would like to pay for the new booking charge. Once again, I asked if the given credit card information was for the refund, and she confirmed. She mentioned that I would receive a confirmation within 24 hours. However, I only received confirmation for the new flight changes, with no mention of the cancellation of my old flight or the refund.I am now concerned that the agent did not process my request correctly, resulting in a double charge on my credit card. When I contacted ******** service, they were unaware of any refund being processed and mentioned that my flight was rescheduled, not canceled. Had I known this, I would have booked the new flight separately, as the cost was only $80 compared to the $271 (total $ after taxes) charged by Expedia.The error lies with the agent, and the call is recorded. The second ******** service representative I spoke with, ***, sent me the call transcript (attached), which mentions the refund. I am disappointed with the lack of preparedness demonstrated by Expedia's ******** service representatives, as they seem poorly trained and unprofessional.I kindly request that this matter be resolved and that I receive my refund as initially promised.

      Hi,I booked an airline ticket from Expedia for TD. I also booked airline seats including exit row seats (for return flight) with Expedia for ~ $90. I also booked couple of hotels - one in Shridi for ~$197 for two nights. ********* didnt honor the seats booked through Expedia and bumped us away from exit row seats. ********* is also saying that any refund should be collected from TD.Shridi hotel was also a sham hotel. All bed linen were very dirty, bathrooms were dirty, hotel was under renovation, broken iron. Horrible experience.On calling Expedia, they are only refunding me $28 on seats. They have no explanation as how they arrive at that amount. They are asking me to contact ********* who is asking me to speak to Expedia. Expedia is also not sharing their email id to enable to have a written conversation - three way to discuss this issue. Agent doesnt want to give me any evidence to bring this matter to court.Very bad experience on this booking with Expedia. I have brought other issues with Expedia on this booking for which they have compensated me with points but issues keep occurring and their agents are never trained to give correct answers. Very dubious agents..

      Dear Better Business Bureau,
       
      Thank you for taking the time to contact Expedia for TD regarding an issue from our customer. We appreciate the ********************** allowing us to address the comments and concerns that have been brought to our attention. Expedia for TD is disheartened that the customer felt their concerns were not resolved adequately by our company prior to seeking further actions from you.
       
      Expedia for TD is responding to the consumer complaint from Mr. ******* ***** (BBB case number ********) regarding his air booking. We understand Mr. Kumar was looking to for a refund to their paid seats with **********
       
      On 02 July 2025, Mr. Kumar reached us requesting the refund. We reached out to the airline, and they advised that they have refunded a total of C$115. Mr. Kumar confirmed that this is the amount that he was seeking.

      On 27 July 2025,  Mr. Kumar reached out to us requesting refund for the seats paid as he didn't receive any refund form *********. We advised Mr. Kumar that we will follow up with the airline regarding the refund and will get back once we receive the update from Air India and we are still waiting for Air Indias reply.

      In addition, on 27 July 2025, Mr. Kumar complained about a hotel stay was booked with us, and we tried our best to raise the complaint with the hotel to seek an exception for compensation, which was met with denial from the hotel. As a gesture of goodwill, we have offered 15% refund from the total amount paid for the hotel reservation and refunded the value of 30 C$.

      Due to the inconvenience, Mr. Kumar was also offered ****** TD rewards points from our end before as a gesture of goodwill.
       
      Again, we thank you for allowing us the opportunity to address this issue that was brought to our attention. If you have any further questions or concerns regarding this matter, please feel free to contact us.

      On June 8, 2025, I purchased a one-way ticket from **************, ** to ********, ** via Expedia.ca for $327.31 (trip date: July 21). On July 2, I was notified by Expedia that the airline, ***************, had changed my flight time.On July 3, I called Expedia and explained the new time didn't work for me. I requested to switch to a later promotional flight priced at $198.95, if the airline agreed to refund the fare difference ($128.36). Otherwise, I wanted a full refund so I could rebook the promo fare myself. I was issued case #********.On July 4, I followed up and was told there was no update; case #******** was created.On July 7, Expedia emailed me confirming I had been switched to the requested flight but no refund was mentioned.On July 10, I called again. The agent claimed I had accepted the new flight. I clarified that I only agreed to switch if a partial refund was approved. The agent said they would now request a cancellation and it might take 35 business days; case #******** was issued.On July 12, with no update, I called again. The agent acknowledged my original request and said they would escalate to their back office to review the July 3 call recording. If Expedia erred, all fees would be on them. I was told to expect a follow-up within 35 days. Case #******** was created. The $198.95 promo fare was still available that day.On July 18, I called once more, demanding to speak with a supervisor. I was connected with Jasmine, who couldnt explain the lack of follow-up. When asked to review the July 3 call, she placed me on a 20-minute hold and later said they couldnt locate the call transcript. She offered to cancel my flight under regular cancellation rules, meaning fees would apply; which I declined, as the promo fare was also no longer available. (A message informs callers that unless they opt out all telephone communication are recorded, I never opted out in any of my telephone communication with Expedia)

      Dear Better Business Bureau, 

      Thank you for taking the time to contact Expedia regarding an issue from our customer. We appreciate the ********************************************* allowing us time to address the comments and concerns brought to our attention.  

      Expedia is responding to the consumer complaint from ********* ***** Moncy (BBB case number ********) regarding a flight booking. We are sorry to hear regarding the hassle Mr. ************** to go through.

      As per our records, the flight booking was made on 08 Jun 2025 with ************************ for a one-way trip from ************************************************************************** amounting to ****** CAD.

      Our findings indicate that one of the flights originally scheduled as P6922 on 21 July from ************** (YSJ) to ************************** (***) was cancelled. A rebooking option was provided as P6950 on 21 July from ************** (YSJ) to ************************** (***), with a connecting flight PD256 on 21 July from ************************** (***) to *************** (YUL).

      However, due to a schedule change by the airlines for the flight P6950, the traveler missed the connecting flight PD256, arriving in ********. We understand that these changes can be inconvenient, time consuming and not customer friendly. But, ******************** has no control over when, or how often, airline-initiated schedule changes occur.

      We contacted the airline to request a refund waiver for the unused flight segment PD256 (******* to ********), scheduled for July 21, 2025, as the ticket was not utilized. The airline responded favorably and expressed willingness to support the refund request.

      Hence, we would like to inform Mr. ***** that a refund of amount ****** CAD has been processed from airline's end on Aug 03, 2025 in the Mastercard ending XXXX-2006. The refund will reflect in the traveler's account within next 7-10 business days.

      We thank you for allowing us the opportunity to address the issues that have been brought to our attention. If you have any further questions or concerns regarding this matter, please feel free to contact us.

      My husband suffered a leg injury and I had a hotel booking to cancel. The booking was done via Expedia Canada for a hotel in **************** (Marriott). Expedia has charged us 90% of the hotel stay due to the hotels cancelation policy however Expedia allowed for a cancelation up until 2 days prior to our stay. Our stay was booked for August 4-6 and we asked for a medical emergency cancelation 13 days prior to the booking and yet the 90% charge was applied. We paid $686.36 Canadian and was issued only 10% back $68.64. ******** headquarters was emailed and they told us we should not have this charge as it was within their global cancelation policy however Expedia is firm is saying the hotel could hold us to this decision based on the discretion of the hotel manager. We have attempted to reach out to the manager and have not been given any further communication. The hotel has ample time to rebook the room and Expedia seems to take no responsibility. Marriott was clear in saying the dispute is not with them however should be with Expedia.

      Dear Better Business Bureau,

      Thank you for taking the time to contact Expedia regarding an issue from our customer. We appreciate the ********************************************* allowing us time to address the comments and concerns brought to our attention.

      Expedia is responding to the consumer complaint from Ms. ****** **** (BBB case number ********) regarding the refund of the hotel reservation.

      Our records indicate that Ms. **** booked a hotel reservation at ************* by Marriott ******** for the stay period of August 4 to August 6, 2025, under Itinerary # **************.

      Upon reviewing **************** reservation details, we can confirm that the cancellation policy stated that any changes or cancellations made before or after August 4, 2025, would result in a 90% charge of the total booking amount.

      However, in light of the medical situation, we promptly reached out to the hotel to request a waiver. Unfortunately, the hotel declined the request.

      As Expedia is a third-party intermediary, we are obligated to adhere to the hotels decisions regarding refunds.

      We thank you for allowing us the opportunity to address the issues brought to our attention. If you have any further questions or concerns regarding this matter, please feel free to contact us.

      During the weeks of July 7th and 14th 2025, I began planning a last minute trip to *******. I booked many refundable reservations on Expedia.ca while solidifying an itinerary.On July 9, 2025 at around 1:53PM EDT, I reserved and paid Expedia.ca $1,697.71 CAD for a five night stay at the ******************************** (the Hotel). Unlike my other reservations, I mistakenly purchased a non-refundable stay but did not notice.Three hours later (at roughly 4:27PM EDT) I cancelled the hotel reservation, believing that I had a refundable reservation and would receive a refund.I held the reservation for 2.5 hours.On July 15, I discovered my error.I contacted Expedia.ca via webchat. They informed me the decision to refund was the hotel's. They agreed to contact the hotel to seek permission.On July 16 and July 17, Expedia emailed with updates. On July 18, Expedia emailed to inform me they had not obtained approval and there was nothing else to be done.I replied seeking clarification as to whether they had been unable to reach anyone, or had reached someone and been denied.On July 19, Expedia replied they had been unable to contact anyone at the hotel.On July 20, I reached out to the hotel directly to ********************************* July 21, the hotel replied directing me to contact Expedia.I replied to Expedia's July 19 email, informing them of my easy contact with the hotel.Expedia emailed telling me that they were again chasing the hotel again with a refund request.On July 22, the hotel denied Expedia's request.Expedia notified me of the hotel's decision.On July 23, the hotel emailed me directly, declining the refund request, and included their email to ***** at Expedia and Expedia's request. Their ultimate reason was fairness to guests who had paid for a refundable reservation.On July 26, I emailed the hotel and cc'd Expedia stating my disagreement with their rationale and stated I would lodge complaints.

      On March 1, 2025, My mother and I booked a trip to ******** for June 3, 2025. It was a trip we were both extremely excited for! Unfortunately, at the end of April, we endured a serious family medical emergency involving my father that required me to stay close by as his Power of Attorney. In May, when we learned that he would not be able to return home from the hospital and would need to move into a memory care facility, my mother and I made the difficult decision to cancel our trip. We had cancellation insurance, that also covered family emergencies, as such we did not anticipate the horrendous few months that Expedia has put us through trying to have our money refunded. When we contacted Expedia on May 12, 2025 to cancel, they were quick to take $1000 in cancellation and insurance fees, while promising that once a medical note had been provided we would receive a full refund of what our trip had cost ($4332.63). On May 19, 2025, I provided a medical note which we were then told our refund would take 7-10 days to be credited onto my mother's credit card. During this time we received emails from ***, the insurance provider, in which we were told by Expedia to ignore, as they would be handling everything. We, of course, learned later on that this was untrue and they had no known contact with **** The 7-10 days lapsed several times, with several empty promises to "hold on for 7-10 more days". Once we learned that Expedia had lied about contacting *** on our behalf, *** processed our claim, only to refund the $1000 taken for cancellation/insurance fees as we had told them about Expedia's several promises to refund the full trip costs, which *** informed us it was then Expedia's responsibility. To this date, all we have received from Expedia is the continued run around and no refund. Among the several attachments - Policy Wording is added to highlight that based on our circumstances section A; A3; 3 is the category we would fall in.

      Thank you for taking the time to contact Expedia regarding a concern from our customer. We appreciate the ********************************************* allowing us the opportunity to address the comments and concerns brought to our attention.

      Expedia is responding to the consumer complaint from Ms.****** ****** (BBB case number ********), regarding a refund request associated with her package booking.

      According to our records, Ms. ****** booked a package reservation on March 2, 2025, under itinerary number **************, with a scheduled departure from *******, *******, Canada.

      We regret the experience Ms. ****** encountered. Upon receiving her request, we conducted a thorough investigation. The flight portion of her booking was made with ****************, whose fare policy is highly restrictive and does not permit refunds for medical reasons.Additionally, the hotel booking was listed as non-refundable and non-changeable. We attempted to contact the property on her behalf;however, the property declined to make any exceptions to their policy. We also reviewed the communication history between Ms. ****** and the Expedia Support Team and found no records indicating that a full refund was promised. Moreover,the refund confirmation email Ms. ****** provided originated from *********************************************,which is not affiliated with Expedia.

      Please note that Expedia does not charge any additional fees for refund requests. If a refund is approved, the amount is deducted directly from the original booking payment.  We recommend that Ms. ****** reach out to her financial institution to dispute the $10,00 charge, which appears to be invalid. Her bank may be able to assist her in reversing the transaction. We also strongly advise obtaining our contact details only from our official website, ***********************************, rather than through general search engines like ******, which may sometimes redirect to fraudulent numbers. For assistance, customers can use the live chat feature on our website or call ************.

      Additionally, Ms. ****** purchased a Travel Protection Cancellation Plan under policy number *********. We recommend she contact the insurance provider directly to inquire about potential coverage for her situation, subject to their terms and conditions. She may reach them by phone at ************** or via email at *************************.

      We appreciate the opportunity to respond to the concerns raised. If you have any further questions or require additional clarification,please feel free to contact us.

I called Expedia to pick up the itinerary and use my travel credit. After over 2 hours with agent ****** and 1.10 hours with ****** *., Supervisor-***************** I am told that the the published fare cannot apply as this is not a new booking and that I have to pay in excess of CAD $500 per person. I understand there is a penalty upon redemption of travel credit but to pay in excess of $500 per person in addition is criminal. I am seeking to either get a refund, extend the credit, or book the trip to *******, as advertised.

      RE: Expedia Case # ******** 

      Dear Better Business Bureau,  

      Thank you for taking the time to contact Expedia regarding an issue from our customer. We appreciate the ********************************************* allowing us time to address the comments and concerns brought to our attention.  

      Expedia is responding to the consumer complaint from Ms. ********* Ocampo (BBB case number ********) regarding flight reservation.  

      Our records indicate that Ms. ********* ****** booked a package reservation. We understand that she is now requesting to utilize the available travel credit associated with her flight reservation. 
      Following the conclusion of our investigation, we would like to inform Ms. ********* ****** that her flight reservation under booking reference 37SJ2Y is eligible for travel credit redemption until August 4, 2025. To redeem this credit, she is required to pay any applicable fare difference, tax difference, and change fee, as per the airlines policy. As previously discussed with Ms. ******* the cost to redeem the credit was significantly high, and she declined to proceed with the payment, noting that the same flight could be booked separately at a lower price. Please note that the tickets are nonrefundable, and no waiver has been provided by the airline to extend the validity of the travel credit. 
      We thank you for allowing us the opportunity to address the issues brought to our attention. If you have any further questions or concerns regarding this matter, please feel free to contact us. 

      Sincerely,

      Complaint: 23634679

      I am rejecting this response because:

      I have attached email from Expedia and my response to them.  When I did not receive a response to my email, I called on July 23 (spoke to Marfs) and on July 24 (spoke to *******) to follow up on the status since the travel date being considered was July 25. I was informed that the case has been submitted for a refund and will take anywhere from 48 to 72 hrs to complete. I have not received any other communication.  As of last telcon with Expedia, the active case number is 15634589. 

      Sincerely,

      I neither received a reply or a new itinerary.  I called on July 23 and spoke to Marfs.  I was informed that the case is being considered for a refund as of July 22, assigned a new case number ********, but will take anywhere from 48-72hrs to process.  Because the travel date being considered was July 25, I called again on the evening of July 24 for an update.  No change.  Still pending.

      As of today, July 25, I have not heard from Expedia.  The travel date being considered has now come and gone. The travel credit is expiring on August 5.

      RE: Expedia Case # ********  

      Dear Better Business Bureau,   

      Thank you for forwarding the consumer rebuttal from Ms. ********* Ocampo (BBB case number 23634679).  We regret to hear Ms. ********* Ocampo did not accept our resolution offered. 
      Following a review of the new information provided by Ms. ********* ******, we have concluded our investigation into her concerns. The flight reservation was originally booked under a non-refundable policy and later cancelled, with the fare issued as a credit valid until August 4, 2025. According to the airlines terms and conditions, any additional cost incurred while redeeming the credit must be borne by the traveler. In this instance, Ms. ****** declined to pay the fare difference. 
      Although, taking into account the trouble she experienced, we have offered a one-time exception by refunding 50% of the original flight booking value USD $569.00 to her **** card ending in 5198. The refund may take 710 business days to appear on the bank statement. Processing times may vary depending on the financial institution and can take up to 12 billing cycles. 
      We thank you for allowing us to address this matter further. If you have any further questions or concerns regarding this matter, please feel free to contact us.  

      Sincerely,

      So I use Expedia to book a hotel ****** stay in *******************. I never been to ******* before I pay for my location where before I left *************. I tried to reach out to the property host June 27. I didnt reach anyone June 28 my reservation. I reached out to the host again to get the details for the location where I was staying they told me the properties being renovated and I was not able to stay as that property after I paid my money to stay at this location I dont know anyone in ******* the money I spent for this property. I had nowhere to stay. I was basically homeless in *******. I contact customer service to let them know what was going on. They made it seem like they assured me that they was going to handle it the situation. They told me they are going to contact the host of the property in which they informed them that the places will be renovated so they refunded me my money, but that did not solve my problem, which was where was I going to be staying for 10 days? Expedia told me I needed to ****** a new location after I already paid $506 for the location that was being renovated. What if I didnt have any additional money to pay a new location this was so unprofessional so inconvenient. I had to come up with money to get a new location because I was going to be homeless in *******, I ended up paying$220 from June 28 through July 2. Then I ended up paying $349 for July 2 through July 8 I spent over $1000 if I wanted a place that amount I would have booked a location for $1000 I was assure that Expedia was going to reimburse me. $567 not the difference from the $506 original reservationThey told me if I made another booking after the first reservation was canceled. I was assure that I was going to get reimburse for the bookings. I couldve booked with the whole another booking company that wouldve probably save me a lot more money than what paid through Expedia. After this experience, I no longer wanna be an Expedia customer anymore.

      Dear Better Business Bureau,

      Thank you for allowing us to address Fashira Whites concerns.

      Fashiras original Vrbo booking in ***********, *******, was unexpectedly canceled due to renovations. She paid $506 and had to secure alternative accommodations costing $567.72. Initially, she was reimbursed $61.72, per our policy covering the price difference.

      Understanding her situation, we went beyond our usual policy and approved a full reimbursement of $506 as a goodwill gesture. We have communicated this resolution and remain committed to supporting our guests throughout their travel experiences.

      We appreciate Fashiras patience and are dedicated to ensuring her satisfaction. Please feel free to reach out with any further questions.

      Best regards,

      Expedia advertised a 1700 sq ft room. I booked it with the understanding thats how big the room would be. When I checked in at got to my room it was a1000 sq ft a large difference. I checked the front desk to see if they put me in the wrong room and was told they dont even have a room that big. It was still being advertised on Expedia the hotel told me not their problem its Expedias. When I asked Expedia they said since I already checked in they cant do anything but give me a $25 credit. How would I know that room didnt exist until I went in the room? You cant advertise and sell something that doesnt exist And expect $25 credit to fix the fraud. There was numerous other rooms at other hotels for better pricing or value but I chose this one cause if the price and value that was obviously fraudulent. When I talked to Expedia they said sorry that room was already booked when I talked to the hotel manager they said that room doesnt exist.

      Dear Better Business Bureau,

      Thank you for taking the time to contact Expedia regarding an issue from our customer. We appreciate the ********************************************* allowing us time to address the comments and concerns brought to our attention.

      Expedia is responding to the consumer complaint from ****** ****** (BBB case number ********) regarding issues with a recent hotel booking at ********* & Casino, a Destination by Hyatt Hotel.

      We understand Mr. ****** concern regarding the discrepancy between the room size advertised on our website and the actual room provided. Upon review, the reservation under itinerary ************** showed a listed room size of 1700 sq. ft., while the hotel has confirmed that their largest available room is 1100 sq. ft. We're sincerely sorry for this error in the listing and the hassle it caused.

      Our records indicate that a $25 One Key Cash credit was initially offered to Mr. ******* Expedia account, which was declined, and he requested to speak with a supervisor. After reviewing the case, the supervisor acknowledged the content error and provided $185 in One Key Cash, equal to 50% of the booking amount, which was accepted as a resolution.

      As the booking was used and a significant portion of the amount was already credited in the form of One Key Cash to Mr. ******* Expedia account, we believe the best possible resolution has been provided in this case.

      The One Key Cash can be used on future bookings. Please refer to: **************************************************

      To Whom It May Concern,I am writing to file a complaint against Expedia regarding a recent booking I made through their app. Below are the details of my trip:Booking Date: July 10th, 2025 Trip Details: Round Trip Flight from ******* to *******, Hotel stay in ******* Dates: August 1st to 4th, 2025 Quoted Price: 1825 CAD Upon completing the payment, I received multiple notifications from my credit card, which initially did not show up in the statement. The next day, I discovered that the charges for the hotel were in USD, not CAD as indicated during the booking process. The difference between 1825 CAD and 1825 USD is significant, with 1825 USD being approximately 2400 CAD.I contacted Expedia to report the issue and provided proof that my app showed the price in CAD. Despite this, Expedia claimed that I had booked through the Expedia US site, which is incorrect. My app clearly displayed all prices in CAD and did not mention USD at any point.Additionally, the Expedia website still shows the same package for 1880 CAD, and I have taken screenshots of this as well. When I presented this evidence to Expedia, they denied any wrongdoing, stating that prices keep changing and their hands are tied.I feel that I have been scammed by Expedia and am seeking justice for this matter. I have attached screenshots and documentation to support my claim.After convertion i will be charged ********CAD. as per expedia. And they cant refund them.I request your assistance in resolving this issue and ensuring that I am refunded the difference in currency charges.Thank you for your attention to this matter.Sincerely,Aju

      Dear Better Business Bureau,

      Thank you for taking the time to contact Expedia regarding an issue from our customer. We appreciate the ***************************************************** us time to address the comments and concerns brought to our attention.

      Expedia is responding to the consumer complaint from Mr. *** ***** (BBB case number ********) regarding package reservation.

      Our records indicate that Mr. *** booked a package reservation that included a flight with Air Canada from ******* to ******* for August 1 to August 4, 2025, and a stay at ************ by Marriott Beausejour. We understand Mr. *** is requesting a refund.

      Upon my investigation, that ****** booked the reservation on ************************ (the **** site), rather than Expedia.ca (the Canadian site). As a result, the total amount was charged in USD, which led to a higher amount in CAD after currency conversion.

      Based on our research, we advised Mr. *** to verify and update the country setting in the Expedia app to Canada for any future bookings. This will ensure that prices are displayed and charged in CAD, helping to avoid any unexpected currency conversion charges.

      We understand how this situation may have been frustrating. However, since the reservation was made through ************************ (**** site), the transaction was processed in USD as per the platform's standard billing practices. Unfortunately, we are unable to refund the currency conversion difference, as the charges reflect the terms and conditions of the site through which the booking was completed.

      We thank you for allowing us the opportunity to address the issues brought to our attention. If you have any further questions or concerns regarding this matter, please feel free to contact us.

      Sincerely,

      Complaint: 23588315

      I am rejecting this response because:

      1 - i booked it thour expedia app where the currancy and region shows in CANADA. And it still does in my app.

      2- When i booke the vacation online, the price was CA1823$ and when i raised a complaint next day. the prices on the website went up around CA50$ . which came arround CA 1880.

      3 As stated by expedia, even if the payement are going in US currancy  after convertion the US charges shoudl be under 1350US$ +convertion charges. But my cc is gonna hit with a 2550 charge  including convertion.

      **** a senario where someoje booked a vacation on today for 1823 US  how can the same vacation cost 1880Cad the next day. People with  since a flight ticket is involved  i am 100% sure the package wont drop ******* CAD IN 24 hrs!!  I have proof for the next days vacation cost. from the same website.

      the justifiation for this by customer service is that rates will fluctuate!!!  Which doesnt make sense for *******CAD.

      I would like to state this, that the price i saw was in CAD in the app. and i have never changed the region.  its allways been Canada/CAD.  

      The prices of these airline compared with Airline price and hotel price  It is similar to Canadian pricing. 

      No one in the right mind would pay extra  for these.

      I request to help me find justice. i have seen a post from another customer redarging the same issue.

      Sincerely,
