Affirm payment did not work

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I went through the Affirm website to Hotels.com to book a hotel. Was supposed to have payments through Affirm.

Instead, Hotels.com hit my account for the entire amount...no Affirm...just an $800 hit on my account.

Terrible. Would highly suggest not using Hotels.com.

User's recommendation: Do not use Hotels.com

Bad Service And Decetive Buisness Coduct

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I Glenn Raymer had made a Booking on Hotel.com thinking its an Australian company but it turned out be American. I was told according to Protcal that i will get my money back into CommonwealthBank within 24-48 hours.They take you money in few seconds but return in 10-15 days.I see no logic in the greedy behaviour and deceptive Ameriacn company.Amen. I am furious

User's recommendation: Please DO NOT BOOK WITH THIS COMPANY IN THE NEAR FUTURE

I paid for a wheelchair accessible room and when I arrived at the sleep Inn west valley city Utah Feb 3 they could not accommodate me and they were very rude and told me I could not rent there and D

They still have not refunded my money. They were very unprofessional, and in my opinion, because they had no accessible room, they acted like complete jerks.

I would like them to now refund my $94.09, and they act like they don't have to give it back to me! They cannot just steal my money, so I'm going to call Fox13 News and Channel 2 News to see if they want to run a story on these shady practices by this motel.

Loss:
$94
Cons:
  • Were very unprofessional

Preferred solution: Full refund

User's recommendation: Rent somewhere else

Cancel a booking

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I booked a trip to Budapest, but due to an accident which caused a brain injury for me, I am unable to travel. I provided the doctor's note to Expedia, asking for a refund or a future travel credit, but I'm just getting the runaround between hotels.com and the hotel, both saying the other person should do it.

The hotel says hotels.com should, and hotels.com said they only go by the hotel policy. I feel trapped and harassed in this process, and all this stress is making my symptoms worse.

I would like a quick resolution. I have attached the receipt showing the reservation for 2 rooms from Dec 27th, 2025, to Jan 1, 2026, at Parisi Udvar Hotel.

Loss:
$5579
Pros:
  • Sometimes a better price
  • Points
Cons:
  • Hassle with any changes or cancellations

Preferred solution: Full refund

User's recommendation: Always confirm the cancellation policy or go directly with the hotel vs. using the Expedia group

Had a hotel claim our reservation didn't exist and we were turned away late at night. Hotels.com had done nothing to help since they can't reach the hotel staff.
