On arrival at Hotel, Hotel Manager Mr Chadha, informed that booking was done through Dewdrop Hospitality, Gurgaon and they had cancel the booking because of Non receipt of payment.

Issue: Payment was made in full in advance at the time of booking and there was no request from my side to cancel the booking.
Need the details and reason for cancellation along with my refund.

Agoda is terrible. They do not honor their word. The told me I would be refunded at my next booking but will not answer a single email about how to use this refund when I book again.

agoda has the worst service ever. got me stranded twice over with hotels bouncing me off. left me with huge expenses on phone & taxis and no place to stay. and now they refuse to honour their word of refunding me. total harassment - never ever agoda

Booking ID 95102102. The worst customer support one can expect from an International travel booking site. On our family trip to Rishikesh we booked three rooms through Agoda in Hotel SK International. We paid the hotel charges in advance to Agoda and got the room confirmation. On 14th May, Saturday, we reached Rishikesh as per our booking plan and on reaching hotel they said the rooms are not available you can check somewhere else. On calling the customer support of AGODA three times and wasting almost an hour and half on call the only response we got that they have spoken to hotel and hotel guys will help you in finding another hotel. It was jam-packed in Rishikesh and we spent our half day in finding another hotel with help of SK International. We got a low grade hotel on one corner of Rishikesh with lift not working on the floor we were allotted rooms. Our whole day was waisted and our Single day trip to Rishikesh was completely spoiled. We were forced to pay our hotel bill on checkout when we were moving to next destination as per our Itinerary.

On claiming the refund of booking amount, AGODA is not ready to refund what it has charged us for booking hotel SK International and did not gave us rooms.

We don't go to the same destination again and again on holidays so we try to cover maximum attraction of the destination with advance planning and thus have pre-booked our rooms through AGODA to avoid last minute surprises. AGODA customer support did not even bothered to call us to check our status.

AGODA may not have control on hotel but, we expected it to have strong customer support to help you in the event of such surprises. I will give them a big ZERO for customer support and call them CHEAT for not refunding the booking amount.

Agoda says they won't charge my credit card when I did the booking. And when I wanted to cancel the booking I can't cancel it because I did not receive anything from agoda.tried calling the hotel the hotel says they can't help.tried calling agoda and they kept asking us to leave a message.this is is just a rip off

I recently looked at website of a Bintan Royale in Penang I wanted to book into and gave my details and when gave credit card details ..discovered the hotel website had been hijacked by Agoda booking ID 85551677 .Consequently I paid more than the price on the Hotel Website. I am an older person and not very skilled on the computer and because I specifically chose the hotel website thought I was booking directly. This sort of trickery is appalling. I was also charged more than the original quote for conversion rate , which is against my country' s consumer protection act. I emailed Agoda and have received no reply. I contacted Bintan Royale to discover that they have had problems with Agoda, and that they have not received my payment.
This deceit and lack of transparency should be stopped

I USE AGODA FOR BOOKING HOTEL FOR MANY TIMES.

ON 29 OCT 2015,I BOOKED 6 ROOMS FOR THE SEA PRINCESS HOTEL CHECK IN DATE IS 25 DEC 2015 AND THE BOOKING ID IS 80179415 FROM THE AGODA WEBSITE. AND I FULLY PAID BY USING MY CREDIT CARD.

ON 25 DEC 2015, MY FRIENDS AND MY FAMILY GOING TO CHECK IN BUT THE HOTEL ONLY RESERVE 5 ROOMS FOR ME.
THAT MEANS, MY FAMILY DON'T HAVE ROOM TO STAY. THEY DON'T HAVE ANY OTHER ROOMS ALREADY AND IT IS CHRISTMAS I CANNOT FIND ANY OTHER ROOM FROM OTHER HOTAL.MY FAMILY STAY IN MY CAR ONE NIGHT. THE HOTEL TOLD ME IT IS NOT THEIR FALSE, HE TOLD ME IT IS THE AGODA FALSE.

I WANT THE AGODA COMPENSATE ME. THANK YOU.

I booked in Agoda.com with booking number 84079174 and 84005767. It is the same hotel actually. We just book it separated because before we had a plan to stay for 2 night only, and we decide we will go earlier and we booked another night. This hotel is dirty, smelly, and it is the worst hotel we have visited. We complain to Agoda by email and also by costumer service. I called the costumer service said that she couldnt contact that hotel because the hotel phone number is not right, or different person. How can big website such Agoda.com has affiliate partner with such a hotel. We just went out from hotel because there was no one there, no security, no receptionist, no one. Is it a hotel scam or what? I cant believe i have such an experience with Agoda.com for the first time.

Is it possible that Agoda can't comfirm to the Hotel? Such an amazing hotel partner and with incredible hotel quality.
Since the first time i saw the hotel, i realized something is wrong.
Hopefully Agoda will listen to me this time since i already call and send bunch of emails.

I have been a loyal Agoda customer only making bookings for my business travel through them. I have US$320 in rewards points that I wanted to use to book a stay away in Batemans Bay in the new year. I went through all the processes to make a booking but nowhere can I find where I can claim points to pay for some of it, so I ring customer service. Which I can only speak to someone if I have a booking number (I have just booked a business trip so I use that ref number)

I get someone on the phone and I explain my issue, apparently I am told that the place I want to book is not available through the Agoda site, that the Agoda room allocation has been sold, but so they don't lose any customers they take allocation from their Booking.com site and put it on the Agoda site. This means that I can book it through Agoda but cannot use rewards points to pay for it.
So I ask how do I tell if I cannot use points, You have to click on the hotel, click on the accommodation type and then on the booking page apparently it will tell you that the money for this room will be collected by the hotel....I did all of this whilst on the phone, whilst the operator was doing the same thing, we are both clicking on the same hotel, same room, yet low and behold it apparently says it on her page but doesn't say it on mine.
The reason for this is that I probably have to go and clear my cache and cookies....I clicked on this page several times trying to figure out why I cannot claim my points, and not once did it mention the hotel collecting the money.

What a complete waste of time, then I got the sincere apologies and the promise that this complaint was going to be escalated to management, I asked if management will ring me to inform that they have resolved the issue and told no they wont be calling me, nor is there anything that can be done to help me as it is a problem with the system.

Sorry Agoda but irrespective of whether the advertised accommodation is from Booking.com or not, if it is on your site then you should honour a rewards points claim, otherwise don't put it on the Agoda site. I don't have time to go through every hotel and pretend to make a booking just so as I can find out if I can use my points.

Just another sham where they tell you that you will be rewarded for your loyalty but then can't claim the reward for one reason or another.
Cheers Agoda....Hello Hotel Club

Beware...I booked with Priceline only to learn later the company "sold me" to Agoda. I booked a room in rural West Virginia...why it had to go through a company in Southeast Asia is insane...
We arrived to find, in spite of my printed voucher, the reservation and pre-payment could not be confirmed. I called customer service and struggled for hours with two different agents who seemed sincere but were useless..this was complicated by a HUGE language barrier...I was told several times, "we will call you back in 20 minutes"..I refused to hang up and stayed on hold for what seemed like eternity..I asked, more than once, to speak with a supervisor and was told each time "I'm sorry you are breaking up, I cannot hear you."
It was like a scene from an old "Vacation" movie.

I very nice motel employee tried to help..warned me there was only one room left and if I didn't reserve it I could end up with no where to stay...with my kids, in the middle of an 800 mile road trip.

I finally told Agoda to "forget it" and I would deal with it after I got home, I ended up paying for another room. When I arrived home I found an email saying my money would be refunded...that was 6 days ago....nothing yet.

BTW,the Priceline /Agoda room charge was exactly the same charge by the motel...no bargain..and a whole lotta headache!

I will make this short. I don't understand why I pay for service that is irresponsible and utterly bad. I rather give the money and put my complete faith with the hotel. Never again to book with an intermediary agent that can't back you up. Rude customer service just spoil everything before a vacation. Good riddance, never again!

I made the terrible mistake of believing Agoda's Best Price Guarantee & booked Bannisters in Moolymook via Agoda. I originally booked for 3 guests, then changed to 2 guests, 19 emails later (and counting) I am still trying to get the difference back!
Agoda is THE WORST accommodation site I have ever experienced, their customer service is a joke and there is no such thing as 'Best Price Guarantee'!! I had to call & email constantly just to get the number of guests changed & every amendment that was emailed to me was incorrect, breakfast not included, rate not reduced, this has been a nightmare!!
DON'T EVER BOOK VIA AGODA especially when there are much more professional sites available like Hotels Combined, Hotels.com or booking directly with the hotel.
I really don't know how these company's can stay in business, hopefully the won't be around for much longer!

I agreed with complaint on here. We book a 5 star hotel but when we got there. It's a dirty apartment. Agoda.com customer service is horrible and refuse to offer refund. Stay away.

My booking ID: 53118609. I've been waiting for my refund for 2 and half months and calling Agoda for more than 15 times but I didn't receive any response from Agoda. The customer support phone number +44 0 20 3027 7900 is hopeless as whenever I called this number its directed me to the voice mail and nobody is following up the case which is absolutely unacceptable. Sent email to customer support but no response at all.

Could you send a receipt for my stay at the Epsom Motor Inn
Nights of 7 & 8/10/2014

This is the forth time have requested this information

Very slack service by your team

We had booking by Agoda # 55119917 2-rooms from 8/10/2014 to 11/10/2014 in Palm Village Hotel - Colombo, we checked out early morning next day of our check in, we found the Air Condition not cooling at all in both rooms, and the Hotel staff and front office manager could not do anything toward the matter.
1- Air Condition not cooling, only fan
2- Rooms are not Clean an had bad smell
3- We could not call our kids next room over the phone, we had to goo from our room to their room to check them all night,
We asked the front office manager next morning 9/10/2014 if he found a solution for the A/C at lest, unfortunately he could not solve the problem.
On same day 9/10/2014 we booked in Cinnamon Red Hotel - Colombo and paid for the next days left in our trip 9/10/2014, 10/10/2014 and 11/10/2014
We request refund of the paid amount of our booking through Agoda # 55119917 for the nights we did not spend at Palm Village Hotel - Colombo.

Thanks, waiting your respond ASAP

I booked room in J's residency varanasi for my friend Mr. Bala krishna srinivas Mbl no 9889423456 email I'd [email protected] booking reference number 55744708 Pl pay back amount to me .This is not fair Pl don't cheated public

I've booked a room at Mimpi Resort Menjangan on Aug, 1st. When I checked out from that hotel, I paid room charge and other expenses. When I paid that bill I just think that Agoda didn't charged me yet for that room. When I received monthly statement from HSBC, i was surprised that they charged me doubles, Agoda charged me and that hotel also. I starting my complaint from Aug 26 and until now all I received from Agoda was the same answer that they still waiting hotel's response for that case. And when I asked Agoda how long I should wait, they said that they can't be sure about the time because they're waiting hotel's responses. I felt dissatisfied and disappointed about it. How come a big company like Agoda doesn't have Time Standard for complaint. It's not my fault and it supposed to be Agoda responsibility to have coordination with their hotels.
Until now I still waiting for Agoda responsibility . and I don't know how long it will takes.

Agoda, like most Hotel booking engines get 17% of every booking. They are owned and operated by public listed company Priceline and this ONLY objective it profit.

Book with care, read all the Cancelation and Booking Policies.

Agoda, like Priceline take names of Hotels and Resorts and use them in their Google AdWords accounts. Search most Hotels on Google and you will likely see a paid Agoda ad for that Hotel or Resort. In a lot of cases Agoda DO NOT have a relationship with that facility but simply use their name to route traffic to their website. This IS ILLEGAL but since they pay over a million dollars a month to Google nothing or no one will stop them from doing this.

There will be a backlash, not only on Agoda but Google. Every dog has its day.

Good luck to you and I hope you. Oh and Mrs. Lenny Husin who posted above. Best NOT to post your Credit Card details anywhere.

The deadline of my hotel booking was 3 Aug. I tried to cancel my booking on 23 Sep but didn't work out. I sent an email to Agoda on 1 Aug reporting the fact that I thought I cancelled the booking on 23 Sep but it didn't work. Subsequently I went on the site immediately to cancel the booking and a message was prompted stating my booking was cancelled and even worked out the amount to be refunded. So I thought it was done finally and waited for the confirmation email. It was a Friday so I finished work for my weekend break expecting the confimation email would come. By the time I got back to work on Monday (4 Aug) then I realized the email never came and the booking was still live and too late to cancel by then.

I called Agoda in Singapore and they offered no help with the situation, nor trying to explain the situation to the hotel. Subsequent emails back & forth repeating the same thing that since I cancelled the booking within 3 days I will have to pay the first night. If they care to look into the logic behind the whole thing and checked their system log they would find that the system did issue an on-screen confirmation which I trusted.

I have no confident on Agoda anymore and I will not use it anymore.
Their rate is not cheap and their server is slow and often hang up, so don't use them as there are many other good online booking agents which have far better response then them. I don't want to see anyone loosing out like I did.

I have a villa with a page on Tripadvisor and Agoda have attached someone else's villa to my tripadvisor site. People are booking this other villa thinking it is my villa and i am getting phone calls almost daily and emails very often about their stay details. Agoda have know about this for 6 weeks and still haven't done anything about this. My Tripadvisor site is for Villa Echo Beach - http://www.tripadvisor.com.au/Hotel_Review-g311298-d1597897-Reviews-Villa_Echo_Beach-Canggu_Kuta_Bali.html and once you fill in dates, you can see that Agoda are selling someone else's villas on my Tripadvisor site. I am not only losing bookings but people are getting very angry with me as they cannot contact the villa they have booked as they already thought they had booked with me. It's getting out of hand.

I have a complain regarding my booking
In 11Jan2014 i made my booking through Agoda in Splendor Hotel Apartment (booking ref. 42243039) and same time i receive the confirmation, i was surprised to receive a call from Agoda on 19Jan2014 (the day of my trip ) that Splendor Hotel are not ready to welcome me and Agoda will try to find me another place, new booking made to Home to Home Hotel Apartment and i have no other choice to say no, Agoda inform me that they will pay the difference if any and i found that i paid more amount , i'm not happy with this and i have a bad importation about booking through Agoda as they confirm booking and they keep me waiting 9 days to tel me about changing of my booking .
