Priceline Clever new Priceline Hotel Scam Internet
1st of Apr, 2011 by User889335
Priceline has a very clever new bait and switched switch strategy. I just bought a $120 hotel for a $290 hotel because of it. I specified a 3 star hotel in DC and the average rate was quoted at $290. I bid $200 and they booked me into a crappy Holiday Inn and said it was a 2 Star Hotel!!!!!. I immediately checked the web and found that the same hotel had a published rate for $129. So I called Priceline to complain but it mysteriously vanished when Priceline (allegedly) checked the price in response to my complaint....saying that there was no availability. I think that i got lucky to see that rate....here is what i think really happened. This is actually a sweet scam for Priceline. The hotel holds a block of rooms for Priceline only...Priceline then sells them for a "Three Star" Rate when they are only "Two Star Hotels." If anyone complains, Priceline then "finds" that there is no availability for the rooms on that night and does not offer a refund. Priceline and Hotel split the profits. I am done with them...and will spend the next few hours telling this story all over the net
