I realized after getting t ok the end that I was in the wrong site. I booked my reservation the room was 162. After the added fees ohhh and their invisible fees it came out to 283.03. This company needs to be shut down. I reported them to the BBB. The company said they would refund me 40.00. Their policy states that 14.00 us the refund fee.

How do companies stay in business like this. I am adding this to my Facebook and Instagram page.

Hope this helps someone else.

I had the worst customer service experience of my life today. I booked a hotel room (one night) on this site as advertised at $326. I immediately got an email confirming the booking and charging my credit card for over a $100 more. I spent about four hours dealing with "customer service" which was extraordinarily frustrating (limited English, not particularly helpful). I finally ended up contacting the GM of the hotel where I had booked. He was kind enough to cancel the reservation. Still Reservagitons.com is saying it's going to take five to 10 business days to return my money. They should be investigated. Now.

Good grief... really
October 2, 2018

9/30/2018 I made a non refundable hotel reservation through this site. But there was no immediate reference number, confirmation number, or follow up email like there normally is. After many emails & calls through 10/1 & 2 still nothing then after a call to them on 10/2/2018 later in the day, in which they STILL don't know anything... I had barely hung up the phone when I get an email. They found it. My last name was spelled wrong even though I had her repeat it back to me more than once.
That was a fun couple of days won't EVER be going back to them. Ever. Might get to sleep tonight

When I asked if this reservations.com was a 3rd party booking, the customer service representative said that Banff Park Lodge hires them to take care of reservations. I only wanted to book if it was directly with your hotel. I confirmed again that this was not a 3rd party and she said "no". I then proceeded to book and when it came time to offer my credit card information, I asked if this was Canadian funds as I am calling from NB and booking in AB. The rep said "Yes, you will be charged Canadian Funds". I proceeded to pay and when I received my confirmation email, it reflected USD (American dollars), which is UNACCEPTABLE. I then called to CANCEL as I was not impressed with this misleading information concerning billing. When I cancelled, the representative said that it will take 10 - 15 business days to cancel on my credit card, leaving the USD rate pending on my credit card. I called American Express and they told me to call Reservations.com back to ask them to call their 1-800 # to offer a Merchant # to free up this pending charge. I called Reservations.com back (coincidentally had the same rep, Alex, answer my call) and he said that I would have to email to request such procedure. I asked to speak to his manager (Jay) and he said that he was on the line and could not take my call. I said that I was willing to wait, so Alex put my on hold. So far, I have been on hold for 28 minutes unacceptable. After waiting 34 minutes for Jay to come on the line, he informed me "I really don't have the merchant number..." and that "we are working with limited resources..."and THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE.

We will never use Reservations.com again. This is our only experience with them and it was an absolutely horrible! Non-caring customer service and charged a fee in addition to the room charge. When we called back they said there's nothing they could do about it. Why didn't they just say there's nothing they wanted to do. They were quite willing to overcharge us.

I usually don't comment on every product I use but seeing this barrage of Negative paid comments I could not stop myself from putting this word out because I had a good experience with them. My stay at Seattle for a business weekend was one of the best time I had in recent times. Customer care service of reservations.com were really helpful and was managed by real people unlike other portal who use chat bots(Hope you get it whom i am talking about).

A fair deal
September 28, 2018

I was planning to go to Miami during the summer for a holiday. I needed an affordable hotel as I was going to stay there for a week. Thanks to Reservations.com I was able book a hotel which was close to all the tourist spots as well as within my estimated budget. I stayed at Eurostar Langford and even got a good deal as I had booked via Reservations.com.

I don't understand why there has been so many negativity this company has received in this forum. Let me share my experience. I had planned to surprise my best friend by booking us all a holiday to Las Vegas. I tried booking hotels on various sites but they were all either too expensive or didn't have the kind of deals I was looking for. Then I came across Reservations.com. We stayed at the Four Queens Hotel at a great price, because we got an offer.

A Good Experience
September 28, 2018

Despite these not-so-favourable reviews, I must say I had a good experience booking with Reservations.com. My husband & I planned to visit our friends at New Orleans. We decided to book our stay early as we wanted a nice accommodation. Reservations.com had some of the best hotels at New Orleans and some of the hotels were on discounted prices because we booked early. We had the best stay at the Renaissance New Orleans and a nice weekend overall.

Easy Cancellation
September 28, 2018

My friend & I had planned a week's trip to New York. Unfortunately, we had to cancel the trip because I caught the flu and there was no way I could travel while being sick. We thought it would be a hassle to go through the cancellation process. On the contrary, the customer service executives at Reservations.com were quite helpful and made the cancellation process hassle-free for us. We even got a refund!

I made a reservation on my phone while we were traveling. Thought I was on the hotel website booking directly. Come to find out, my card was charged $46 over what the rate was and what the hotel actually received and showed my receipt to be. Now that's a hefty fee.

SCAM SCAM SCAM!
September 27, 2018

Well at least the stories are consistent... I too lured into thinking I was going to the hotel directly... fees at least 25% more that the hotel directly. I also have no evidence of the reservation..

Rip off company!
September 26, 2018

DONT USE THIS COMPANY! I book a trip and had to cancel within 15 minutes. Contacted the CS and they stated "no problem" but they billed me a service fee on my credit card of $15 and states it's a service fee. It took them less than 10 seconds to cancel this on their computer and they will NOT tell you this at time of conversation with their agent. Crap company!

September 24, 2018

Made an initial reservation with reservations.com. They added tax and service fees. Needed to extend the reservation and did it through the hotel web site. Their taxes were less than 1/2 what reservations.com charged and there were no additional fees.

Stay away from this "service". They will cheat you.

DO NOT USE - RIP OFF
September 23, 2018

Booked the reservation on personal device while driving. Advertised@ $99 online and was best price. Total including taxes was $139. Booking was smooth and arrived at hotel and checked in.

Looked at the invoice the next day when driving home to find out that the charges were US funds for a Canadian hotel booking.

Figured this must be a mistake and contacted customer service. Customer service was rude and condescending. Representative stuck to the company line that the "US funds" was written in the fine print at the bottom of the form. Refused to refund the difference ($50) between Canadian and US currency. When I asked to speak with supervisor they hung up.

Followed up a few months later with customer service via email and basically was told that they would not resolve my complaint.

This company is a rip off and the epitome of a company that is designed to misrepresent and steal from customers. Will never use this POS company again. Would like the company to be investigated for fraud. IRS should go through them as well. With these shoddy practices they probably have numerous other practices that should be investigated.

Rip off!
September 23, 2018

Like everyone else I "accidentally" booked using this site, thinking it was the hotels website. My fault totally. I called with in 1 minute of my error, and too bad for me, no refund, AND they charged me $60.00 more then I would have paid had I booked directly with hotel! Complete rip off, and zero customer service. Reservations.com is absolutely the worst booking company on the planet!
