Priceline - Hotel, Car, Flight Reviews

I am a VIP gold member in this app (whatever that means but I guess It means I use it alot).
But this has not happened to me not just once but twice. I got charged by this app for a hotel on May but for whatever reason the hotel told me and said the payment through this app didn’t went through so they charged me again. (Thats all good I understand that)
But when I called the this app 3 days after and I said both this app and hotel have charged me for the same day so I want this app or the hotel to refund on the charge they said they had to confirm with the hotel (that’s understandable too) and the representative of the this app said we will make sure with the hotel and send a reimbursement email to your email in 3/5 business days but NO they didn’t. So I called again in 5 days and same response but again NO email (but yes they do make me wait again to confirm with the hotel)

After 12 days I called this app again and this time they said to email this app with my bank statements where it says both parties have charged. And they said it will take 5business days to receive a email back. Its been 2 week still No email.

I appreciate that I can get better deals the more I use this site. I also, in the past, have appreciated their assistance with some not so pleasant hotel experiences - AFTER I was already checked into the hotel.
However I am NOT impressed with the experience I’ve had when I needed assistance with hotel reservations recently! Twice in the recent months I’ve had unfortunate & unforeseen situations arise in which I’ve not been able to get to my reserved hotel room. In fact I was even unable to get to the city/town or even within a hundred miles of said town. However this app would not even consider refunding my money & informed me that I would need to take it up with the hotel - which of course informed me that their hands were tied as they were to be paid by this app. I in turn checked again with this app who continued to say they were not responsible.
Similar case with a rental car that had been erroneously entered into the system - in fact 2 rental cars. One with the wrong email, therefore I didn’t know I actually had a car & scrambled to find another for almost twice the price. The second had the incorrect name spelling and the wrong pick up date again causing a price increase of 50%. this app stating that they were unable to help in any way, despite my “Gold” status & my husband’s “platinum” status. I guess having a good record and a high booking amount doesn’t truly mean much to them.

I do not even know where to begin when discussing and expressing the sign I can’t amount of issues I have had with this app when booking my vacation. A week before our departure I got a message saying our hotel could no longer accommodate our stay and to contact customer service. Frantically panicking because of the short time we called and ended up being transferred to a horrible hotel, in a horrible part of Miami Beach. It separated us from friends and family who has come along on the vacation with us. When we arrived at the hotel it was awful. We tried getting a hold of this app to see if we could switch after calling several of the hotels that we where told by the hotel team “weren’t available”. I have spent the first day of my vacation walking in and out of hotels asking for prices for a week nights of stays. Attempting to get my refund that several customer service employees claimed to have done but never followed through with their actions. After speaking to a supervisor several frustrated phone calls and wasted vacation minutes later we get told that the money should appear in about 10 days. So all our vacation plans no longer are happening and they have ruined our vacation. A vacation we worked very hard to earn and go on. Ruined and I am so frustrated and upset with our the whole thing has been handled. Do not waste your time because you will legit be wasting your hard earned cash and vacation……..

I need to cancel a last minute trip and couldn’t get any on the phone. They push you to the text option which is automated for the first half. After finally getting someone I was told they couldn’t even help and “escalated” my request and some one would get back to in 3-5 days. Well after the reservation. I tried 3 different occasions to try to cancel this before The trip date each time being met with “we have escalated your request and someone will get back to in 3-5 days. The trip date came and went and NOW 13 days after the 3-5 day line someone got back with me “we are not able to obtain an authorization to issue a refund. The reservation remains non-refundable” I needed to Give the 48 hours which I did and have the this app text messages. Since no one at customer service can do anything I was penalized. Never again will I use this app. Not to mention after this fiasco I could have book the hotel direct 10% cheaper. Price line is a joke and doesn’t stand behind anything. It was their own incompetence that caused me to miss the refund date.
Update
The developers ask for a private message with the trip details. The same details I gave them 3 times in the chat, the same details I emailed twice about. Don’t waste your time with this app. Most hotels will give you 10% better of the cheapest price you find. Use this app to find your cheapest price and then call the hotel. The hotels cancellation policies are way better anyway.

The first time that I used this app, I showed up to the hotel to discover that they did not have my room available. The computer system that they use doesn’t work well with that of the hotels so I was informed. Thankfully, the AMAZING people at the hotel (Red Lion Seaside) hooked me up with a better room and gave me a huge discount for the inconvenience of this app’s folly. They also informed me that they could give me a better deal than this app almost every time. So I took their advice the next time I took a trip. I checked the price that this app offered, and then checked with the hotel itself. Sure enough, going through the hotel itself I saved around $75, sometimes more. So I have started using this app just to find the hotels, then I book through the hotels themselves. Works great! More often than not, you can get a better deal through the hotels themselves. The only exception I have found is their price buster deals. But I always double check through the hotel before buying. Credit cards give the least hassle. Debit cards have funds held for awhile before getting squared away so just be aware of that. Also, any cancellations, this app takes their sweet time returning your money. But please, don’t take my word for it. Go check out a “deal” with this app and then check the price through the hotel and see what you find. I’d say you’ll thank me, but how in the world would you get ahold of me to do that?! ;)

I saw a room that showed a NONSMOKING ROOM WITH A HOT TUB INSIDE, well it was my best friend’s birthday and I got us a room only to see the room was filled with smoke, burn holes literally EVERYWHERE the sheets, pillow bead spread, and there was no hot tub it had been removed but it sure didn’t say it on the online app I used well I’m on disability and my money is like anyone else you didn’t provide a service or a room I should say., but it’s not okay to take my money after it took me three hours to reach someone to tell them I could not sleep in this smoke and alcohol ridden room that was filthy so they said if I brought my key to the office and checked out they would refund my money and they could let someone else that is a smoker stay there, well a month later they still haven’t refunded my money after 12 calls saying it takes time we are refunding your money well this was June 24, 2021 and today is October 9, 2021 and I received an email they are not giving me my money back even though I did not stay there in fact I called the manager and they said someone else ended up staying in the room so they got paid twice and I think it’s so wrong! It ruined my friends 50th birthday too. I left the room as it was found I only used the phone and it was making me nauseous tbe few hours I was calling this app, this app is at fault because they are the ones that promised if I left I would get my money reimbursed!

Maybe I should have given 4 stars for helping me find a good low priced hotel in Amsterdam because when I first started searching I found it very hard to sort through all the hotel choices and all the many locations and areas of the big complex city. this app gave me so many choices it was a bit overwhelming, and their map feature didn’t work very nicely or easily on my iPad. If you wanted to zoom out a little, suddenly you would have a map of all of Europe! So it took me some time to first figure out where roughly I wanted to be, and then used Google maps to see how far walking distances were to the train station and to museums or parks I wanted to see. But once I did that, this app helped me find a hotel with a nice big room with a big sliding door to a sunny patio balcony overlooking nice trees. Getting my second unexpected night here was very fast with this app and at same great deal as first night. Highly recommend PL to friends, and like any website you get better with it the more times you use it and know how to better use it.

My wife and I booked a pet friendly hotel on this app because we were traveling with our dog. However, when we arrived at the hotel we were informed that the entire hotel was not pet friendly, just several rooms, none of which were available. this app had failed to integrate this nuance into its booking algorithm, so at 6:00PM on a Friday night in a high-traffic city, I had to find a new place for me and my pregnant wife to stay. We ended up having to book an extremely expensive hotel room as a result. When I contacted this app about this, their customer service department gaslit me and asserted that it was not their fault and that they can’t control how hotels book people. By this same logic, this app would never be responsible for any booking issues, so it’s obviously nonsense. I was ultimately promised that my ticket would escalate and that I’d receive a call back, but here we are weeks later, and no call. I learned my lesson and called the rest of the hotels that we had booked through this app, and several of them would not have had rooms for us if I didn’t clarify that we needed a pet friendly room. This could not have been a worse experience for me, and especially as a loyal this app customer for years, I am beyond horrified at how poorly they handled this situation. Any reasonable company would just apologize and reimburse us, but somehow this app has lost its way. Please don’t support this organization.

When you purchase something online or by phone you have a trust that the purchase for good and services will be honored by the company taking your money. And when a company dishonors that trust by taking your money but then not providing the services or goods promised, most people would consider it fraud. this app took payment for airline tickets and then refused to refund that payment when the flights were cancelled. Seems like an easy response by a respectable company to send the money back, especially since it was no fault of the customer that the service wasn’t provided, but this app has chosen to keep the money. They claim it’s because of the Coronavirus and a lack of employees to provide the refund. There are literally tens of millions of newly unemployed people that could be accomplishing the job this app refuses to complete. You can use Priceline and pray things go well and you are provided the service you’ve paid for, but know that when things don’t go right, and sometimes they don’t, this app will not respect you and honor the trust you’ve placed in them by sending them your money. You’ll be gambling your money on a company with no honor.

this app has since asked to “revisit my case for review,” standard response to make it look like it cares. I HAVE CALLED DOZENS OF TIMES TO REVISIT MY CASE! The only thing this app should be reviewing, is how it treats customers. Refund the money you owe.

I had the worst experience with this app on Oct 7, 2021 so bad that I will be canceling my this app card and never doing business with them again. I happen to be a PLATINUM member, but they aren’t even willing to refund me my money (during Christmas time that I need for my children) after I was forced to stay at a hotel that was unsafe and dirty with roaches on the bed and toliet, drug dealers, gun shots, people overdosed in the hallway, and my door lock was even broken. As soon as the sun came up (because I didn’t have enough money to pay for another room that night because this app refused to help me and refund me any money that night) An extremely understanding nice lady (Trish) said she would refund my money with no problem and then this app refunded my money in seconds even though they had told me MULTIPLE times that there was no way it would even be possible for them to do that, BUT I just looked on my statement and they only refunded one night so now I have a past due balance PLUS a late fee of a place I never wanted to stay at in the first place. As a platinum member I would have thought they would be happy to help me with this issue especially during Christmas time, but no they refused so I will be cancelling my this app card and never giving them another dime because they are greedy crooks who only care about money and not their customers.

For the past 3 months I’ve been technically a vagabond while trying to find a replacement home after I sold my house. Since I’m never sure where the road will lead me or where the next deal on a home might be, I haven’t been able to really plan in advance to make reservations at a hotel ahead of time. That’s where this app comes in handy. I can stop for a break while driving go on their app and they show me all the available hotels in the surrounding area Im in. And since Im traveling with my cats, Im also able to filter hotels that only allow pets. But I have come up on a problem with that. 2 of the hotels which flatly stated they were ‘Pet Friendly’ refused to allow my cats to stay. Saying it was because of allergens. I know as many people allergic to dogs as they are with cats. But that’s not the point which is: these hotels need to state ‘Dog Friendly’ not ‘Pet Friendly’ since that is false advertising and this app needs to address that with these hotels. Other than that I’ve been quite pleased with all my booking on this app.

I have been a loyal customer sense 2010, recommending their services to my friends and family. Over the past two years that has all changed . This is the 3rd time this app has taken my money without giving me a service, leaving me with nothing. this app has pretty much screwed me over for lack of better words. On more than one occasion this app has had deals on there website and app that are not actually available, yet they they have charged my card leaving me with nothing now I have to wait 8-15 business days for my refund to be processed. Not only have they blamed me for not using a credit card next they blame the bank and I will be seeing my money back to me in enough time when all reality they need to take responsibility and update her apps they don’t have offers that are outdated. Not only will they Blame you for using a debit card but they will also blame your bank or the hotel before even beginning to take responsibility. When ever I have called there costumer service, they just blame blame blame, and do nothing to fix the situation or make it better, THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT THERE CLIENTS. It’s not my fault I used a debit card it’s not my banks fault for having to refund MY MONEY it’s this app’s fault for having a deal that is outdated and still taking my money..I’ve given this app so many chances but this is the last straw and stay away from this app. They have lost a loyal customer.

I am writing this because last night I made a mistake of booking a reservation that would’ve happened Thursday the 24th to Friday the 25th when I meant to book the reservation for June 25 to June 26. First off, the website only allows you to do a bundle package (hotel+car or plane). That should be available on Priceline . Also when calling customer service all I wanted to do was keep my rental car and change the dates so all I would have to do is pick up the car today and a hotel would be set. Instead I’m talking with this woman who has a noisy background, she cancels everything. I have to re-reserve the hotel and rental car because I was trying to get a 40% discount bundle package that was not made available on Priceline . I’m not completely trying to throw her under the bus she did get the cancellation fees waived however when I try to ask more questions she was very unpleasant and it made me feel like I had to do everything on my own. Now I have to attempt to get a rental car which is like pulling teeth right now, find a hotel and all I’m doing is trying to make a pleasant experience for my daughter who I want to take because she wants to go to a nice swap meet.

Priceline has always worked fine for me, prices are consistently the best and the areas serviced are really good. Being that this is what this app advertises as their specialty, I believe this should be expected. However, the customer support behind Priceline is terrible. I made a reservation but a few hours after I made the reservation, my wife decided to make a change to our itinerary. I got back on Priceline , selected cancel and canceled the trip. It was well within this app's advertised 24 hour free cancellation period. I rebooked my trip with the changes my wife wanted. Keep in mind I did not get an immediate refund for the cancellation I made. I didn't expect to get an immediate refund but I did expect to get one at some point. 20 days after I made the cancellation I called this app and after waiting on hold for more than 2 hours, I was told that they would NOT honor their own policy and I would not be receiving a refund. Granted I cannot afford to be out the $2,300 dollars I spent so I will have to pursue this issue further. It's really unfortunate as I have booked over 100 different accommodations through this app.

My Valentine’s Day was completely ruined because I was given hotel that was overbooked and eventually three long hours later after being on hold with customer service in the freezing cold in Michigan, I was relocated to a much further 30 minute away hotel and was not even able to check in until almost 9 at night so it was a complete waste of money and time, not to mention it was Valentine’s Day so my poor girlfriend had the worst time. And I was told I would be refunded the price of the hotel for the inconvenience and now this app is trying to tell me they’re only giving me $18 for the inconvenience so I basically wasted my money on a hotel in the first place in the $18 didn’t even cover the gas drive to the second hotel. I have used this app at least 500 times in the past 3-4 years and this will be my LAST because I cannot believe this is how they treat their VIP platinum members just seemingly not to care at all that my night and my money was wasted I will be booking directly through hotel websites from now on horrible app I will not recommend to anybody. If you’ve read this far.. I just know they generally have the best deals but if they book you a hotel that’s already fully booked you’re basically screwed and out of your money so it’s not worth the risk.

We paid one of their Express Deals for a 2 1/2 star hotel. We got an absolute dump that wreaks of cigarette smoke, is filthy dirty, disgusting! Whole second floor room wiggles when my husband shook his foot up and down. Bed linens are dirty, bathroom has what looks like blood on the cabinets. I’m itching all over & have bites on my back. I’m not sure it’s due to mold or bug bites! this app stands behind their 2 1/2 star review for this hotel even though its 1 1/2 on Yelp. It’s super gross. The ceilings even in the halls show water damage. The emergency lights look like they've had a leak above as well. The ac unit makes all kinds of dying moaning noises all night. The bed feels like we’re lying on the floor. The floor is so gross that we won’t take off our shoes! I showered with flip flops on because everything is so gross. There’s hair on everything. Doesn’t look like this room has been cleaned out between guests. Pubic hair on bed sheets. The “breakfast” consists of breakfast bars & tiny muffins thrown in a basket. There’s never anyone manning the front desk. this app will do nothing about it. They keep saying that their standards are more strict than others & it’s a 2 1/2 star hotel. That’s absolutely bogus. Obviously this is an issue with this app because they’ve got a very detailed canned response for it!

Don’t trust this app’s star ratings!

I have used this app regularly for the last few years, booking hotel rooms through them several times a month. When there are no issues, they’re great, but the times there are issues make it unbearable. I booked a hotel using Priceline based on it being in a specific location, and being able to get a suite with a kitchenette at a great price. Once I received the confirmation, I realized that the hotel was located approx 20 miles away from where they showed on the map, and I had a reservation for a standard room. I was told by hotel employees that they had contacted this app several times regarding the incorrect information, but they had made no effort to change it. So after my family drove nearly an hour out of our way to stay in a room smaller than I had intended, I let customer service know about the incorrect information and requested a refund based on it. After a few communications with different CS reps, they have yet to acknowledge that the information was inaccurate, accept responsibility, compensate me for my inconvenience or correct the info on their site. They are intentionally deceiving their customers. this app’s entire purpose is to curate travel information to simplify the process for users. If I have to use other sites and apps to verify that their info is correct before using them, then they are useless to me.

They don’t even deserve the 1 star that I had to give to write the review. I had been using them for a month straight every night until 1 night I had made my reservation close to midnight right before I got there. It somehow got switched to the following day and they wouldn’t check me in until 3 pm. 15 hours later!! I had used all the money I had left on that reservation. So I guess they expected me to sit there and stare at the empty motel and room that I had already paid for until 3pm. A few weeks ago a hotel cancelled my reservation last minute and they were able to switch me to another hotel but fixing the date a few hours was out of the question. Finally after a round with the 3rd representative they gave me “Great news!” They decided to overlook the cancellation policy and give me a full refund that I should see in 7-10 business days. Yay me! I get to sleep a night In my car in the hotel parking lot! *BAD BUSINESS* They lost a customer that spent at least $60 a day for the last month and a half and ANYONE AND EVERYONE that I come into contact with.

I have used this app for years and all over the world. I use to be pretty happy with their service and trusted their company and ratings.
I recently rented a 3 star hotel in Alabama. The hotel was rundown, the customer service was terrible and the shower in my room didn’t even work. I tried to tell someone at the hotel about the shower but there was no one at the desk. I waited 15 mins. There was only a sign that said they were gone. This is was at 10 am and their check time is 11 am. I called the hotel and this app about the situation seeking a refund, since a shower is a basic necessity at a 3 star hotel. The hotel lied and acted like there was no sign, even though the sign was a hard sign with a base, which means they use it all the time. Then they lied and said the shower wasn’t broken. It was a simple shower easy to figure out. It just didn’t work.
Then this app said if the hotel wouldn’t refund me they wouldn’t. Even though my card is charged by this app not the hotel. Basically they are saying we will do nothing to protect our customers or stand by our service.
I was saddened that after years of being a loyal customer with no complaints that they could do nothing for me.
I don’t know that I can trust this app anymore.

I have used Priceline a bit and mostly everything is great. The only problem I have had though was that when you filter for hotels that are pet friendly you shouldn’t get to the hotel and have to beg for them to let you stay. I took my dog on a road trip and the first stop was after 15 hours of driving. We were exhausted and ready to go to bed, but when we got there we had to beg them to let us stay which thankfully they made an exception since I was able to show them where the listing showed them as pet friendly. That was stressful, but I was willing to let it go and call it a fluke until it happened again the next evening on the next hotel stop. Fortunately the lady at the front desk also took pity on us and allowed us to stay, but we have to sneak her in and out to use the bathroom and leave the hotel so the other people who work here won’t know she’s here so again very stressful. Please make sure that if you are assigning a hotel to someone looking for pet friendly that it actually is pet friendly

Bid on a 3 star minimum hotel in Orlando, placed a $275 bid and was placed in a Holiday Inn that was seedy, dirty, old and outdated. The room was dirty, body hair in the bathtub, stains throughout the rooms carpet, mold in the shower/tub gout and the hair dryer was broken. I emailed this app immediately when we got in the room, they didn't reply until a few days later. They replied that the hotel gave us free breakfast so that was the compensation accepted for the dissatisfaction for the room. The hotel text me asking if we were happy and I told her we weren't and explained the problems in the room, she text that she couldn't refund some of the room charge because we booked through a third party/this app so all she could offer is a free meal which we didn't use because it was a breakfast buffet at TGIF, gross.
We spent with tax and fees over $300 for one night in a maybe 1 Star Holiday Inn when we were "guaranteed" a 3 star minimum room before bidding. For that money we could have stayed at a nice Disney resort which was the level we were expecting because of the 3 star minimum we paid for. Customer service was not willing to do anything to make this right so we will never be using this app again and will continue to tell everyone we can about how we got ripped off by this app.

I can’t say enough good about this app and Priceline . I have used the service numerous times, so my review is based on all of these experiences. I alway check other sources for deals and I always find the best deals on this app. I have used it for business and personal vacations. But what made me actually write this review rather then just rate Priceline , was my recent experience with their customer service. In a rush to get a reservation done while sick and mildly medicated, I accidentally made the reservation for the wrong dates. I needed it for a week later. Once I realized my mistake, I called this app directly from Priceline . The service rep (wish I could remember his name) was professional and friendly. He contacted the hotel for me and confirmed that they could cancel the reservation for me (it was a special deal that was supposed to be non-refundable). I received the cancellation notice seconds after getting off the phone. this app went the extra mile for me, and that is why I am writing this review and gave them 5 stars. Thanks again this app.

I’ve gotten a great hotel on Priceline, but every other hotel I’ve gotten has sucked. Don’t do the express deals if you’re going to use Priceline at all, they’re never what they say they are. Even the guest scores are unreliable because somehow it shows they rated it well when the review they’ve given is something along the lines of “horrible customer service” “my car was broken into” “bed bugs”. When I tried to contact this app about a problem with my card, they insisted that the hotel would accept a card with any name on it for incidentals. The card I booked the room with had been stolen and they were saying that I wouldn’t have to show them that card, or even a card with my name on it, just any card, even after telling them that I have seen many reviews in which people were turned away for just accidentally leaving out their middle initial for the reservation, they just repeated that any card would be fine. I then asked if I could be refunded the money I bought the hotel room with so I could put it onto another card I could show the hotel, they copy and pasted the hotels refund and cancellation policy and ended the chat.

I bought a first class plane ticket, my credit card was charged and my flight status was booked. A month later (3 days to departure) the airline informa me that this app has cancelled my reservation and if I show up at the airport they won’t let me board. Called this app 13 times, I kept getting transferred and then their reps would just hang up on me while I waited. Then someone told me it was fixed, but on the return leg of my round trip, the airline tells me I was downgraded from first class to economy and made me pay for my bag. Again called this app and had to pay long distance rate and after 14 minutes on the phone the incompetent rep could not help me, I chose to pay for the bag so that I wouldn’t miss my flight because I had to show up for work the next day.

Now I am giving this app another show, I tried booking a flight twice, Priceline gave me an error “unable to book but here are other amazing deals.” It didn’t book my trip (my flight does not show up in the My Trips section of Priceline ) however I have two $1,200 charges on my credit card. Now I have to waste another 3 hours of being transferred with a dozen this app reps until someone is able to help me.

I use often. Majority of the hotels have been great. Flights have been great! Car rentals have been several issues! In July 2017 car rental issue, I booked a car for Atlanta to pick up after my flight. The car rental place double booked cars out & there was no car... was on the phone with this app for over 3 hours of them trying to locate a rental car, why so long you ask - they kept putting me on hold for over 45 minutes at a time then switch me to different CS people. I was supposed to have been at my destination at 10:00pm and finally out of airport rentals at 10:30pm they placed in a 5x’s the amount I had originally booked a car for! They never reimbursed as they promised! I had a 3 hour drive to my destination, NO this app CS failed hugely! In May 2017, car rental issues in McAlester, OK. Car Rental issues in August 2016 in McAlester, OK. I don’t advise renting a car from this app.

I was using Priceline and it has a glitch. I selected the correct days at a hotel that I was already staying at. We wanted to extend the stay one extra day. I went through the process and selected the same hotel. Everything processed and a confirmation was sent. When I reviewed the confirmation it had the wrong date. The date booked was the same day that I was booking it instead of the next day. Also, I was booking this at 8 pm at the hotel. I called customer support instantly. They said they have to talk to the revenue manager at the hotel. Then I talked to the hotel and they said good luck this app screws everyone over period. I spent that evening and the entire next day trying to get it fixed. After hours and hours of frustration and talking to customer service that can barely speak English they said TOO BAD! Hmmm. So they are telling me because there is a glitch on their end that it is my problem. They said it was my fault because I used their website. This is unacceptable. After read all of the negative reviews I wish I read before use long this incompetent service that will rip you off. It was total BS! Do not use Priceline or website!

Their customer service is less than helpful.
-I booked a hotel using the Name Your Price feature in Priceline for what I thought was the following night because we were driving home from our trip the next day. It charges your card right away, so I assumed everything was alright. After hours of driving we got to our hotel (that I thought I booked for that night) and the less-than-friendly front desk attendant said our reservation was for the previous night.
I double-checked my app, and sure enough, it was booked for the previous night. I was sure I entered the correct dates when I booked. I think there was a glitch in their app.
When I called this app to see about a refund, they were sympathetic and said they thought it was funny that Priceline let me book the room after midnight. When the customer rep tried to call the hotel, the hotel wouldn’t answer. this app wouldn’t give me even a partial refund.
How often does this happen? How much money is this company making off their app glitches? I wouldn’t use Priceline. I guess the old adage of talking to a person is best in this situation and I think that’s what I’ll be doing in the future.

I booked my flight accidentally hitting the book flight key and then realized it was for the wrong month. Contacted this app and they were happy to assist me in calling both Frontier and Spirit Airlines and cancelling both round trip tickets while I was on hold. I was sweating it out but they came through for me cancelling both non-refundable tickets. I book through this app all the time and get the greatest deals after searching for a couple of days for flights that fit not only my budget, but also the times I want to go, plus non-stop. Furthermore, I just booked a full size vehicle through the express deal for the price of a compact. I checked out all other sites before and this app is the most reasonably priced, courteous customer care professionals, and most helpful of all the other sites. If you do go through this app, and listen to me, you’ll save time & money!
“I can assure you, you won’t be disappointed!”

I've been using this app for 15 years. Express Deals are a great way to get into a moderate to fairly high end hotel for great prices! I had 1 issue a few months ago. I had driven with moving truck to move my daughter into her apartment. I was focused on moving her and didn't make hotel reservation for me. Finally, at 11:50 pm, I'm making reservation from my phone. By the time all was confirmed, it was after midnight and the reservation had automatically changed from the Friday night I existed in to Saturday night with no way to change it back. Done deal. I was exhausted from moving all day. I spent an hour and a half on the phone to the Philippines finally getting refunded but no place to stay Friday night. That sucked, but the hotel front desk gal (who got a raving review) offered me a blanket and pillow to stay on a couch in the lobby!! Beware scheduling a reservation around the midnight hour!

I booked several times through them, and twice now they have failed to complete my reservations, I just had to pay twice at the same hotel, luckily the front desk ladies were nice enough to match the price, this app constantly gave me the run around after wasting an hour and a half, I finally just said enough, I’ll let my bank deal with you jokers, not worth the time or effort, if you find a good deal online 9 times out of 10, show the hotel they will match it or come close. Delete Priceline.

To the developer who responded...

It wasn’t a rejection, your systems failed to correctly place me even after I paid, front desk said there was a woman waiting in her car all night because of the same issue, take better care of people that’s all I can say pal, I don’t use fakebook or any social media, so I will respectfully decline...on a side note, when I disputed the charge through my bank(since your people gave me the run around) my claims department said they get more disputes from this app than she has ever seen, so I’m sure you are well aware of your shortcomings, I have nothing left to say on the matter, good day.

Chose to use PL due to name recognition although other discount sites were priced about the same. Round trip Delta to destination Spirit from destination. Priceline failed to reserve our seats on delta and we assigned the last four seats on the back row. While in route Priceline does not indicate boarding gate, but emails changes which for this trip changed twice. Atlanta airport is spread out, and we just happened to check departures and noticed 30 minutes before boarding that our gate had moved from A19 to F9. No email from PL...... until we were boarding. Day before returning we received an email to check in on Spirit Air tried several times to check in, but never received confirmation. While checking in we noticed that if you wait until your flight Spirit will charge extra for checked luggage which is $40 per bag(x3), then we were charged $16 per seat (x 4). As of two hours after “checking in” still had not received our boarding passes and seat confirmations. Flying Delta, Southwest or United would have cost about the same plus the apps for delta and United seem to work very welll. Do not trust the PL app if you do not fly regularly.

I have been a loyal this app user for well over 10 years. I probably book from 50 - 75 rooms per year and every time I book, I fear that something about my trip might change. this app is super inflexible. Actually, they are kind of Bi-polar with a heavy bent toward inflexibility. On a rare occasion, I have been able to reschedule a room, or cancel a trip that has been changed, but for the most part, if something changes about your trip, just plan on no refund, no changes. It’s kind of like playing Russian roulette, but with four bullets in the gun.

The other thing is that their prices used to beat anyone on the internet, and the bidding process worked wonderfully to get the best rate available. Recently, not so much. Prices are pretty much in line with almost every other company out there. So, if you like gambling with your money or if you are 100% sure nothing will change about your trip, then I would still use this app. But if there is even a small chance something might change, I would recommend someone else.
