Revdex.com:
I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ***, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me
I have submitted my receipts for the new booking which is $1,When I receive the payment for the difference is when I will close out the complaint at that time
As for the cancelation of the original reservation, for the record, I did never order them to cancel that reservationI requested for them to play back the tape to prove my side of the story, but the gentleman said he did not have to and lied about what two of his agents told me prior to me talking with him!
here is the documentation I sent and their reply:

Complaint: ***
I am rejecting this response because:
*** *** has lied to me over and over again regarding the ticket we purchasedThe bottom line is, because I put my wife's married name instead of her maiden name on the ticket, they are telling me I have to pay an additional $to use the ticket at a later dateThis is absurd!!! I was forced to purchase another ticket so that my wife could fly out yesterday to her hometown with our one-year-oldI would rather handle this in a court instead of over Revdex.com
Sincerely,
*** ***

Complaint* ***
I am rejecting this response because:I did an airport search, not a general city searchIts not my fault the site has glitchesAlso it was not explained to me at the time of the reservation that I had to contact *** directly to modify and or cancell the reservation and when I called *** to fix the booking they toldo me I had to call kayak to fix the reservationTheir customer service is very poor and I did search by airport, not a general city searchTried to call several times without a prompt responce
Sincerely*** ***

Complaint: ***I am rejecting this response because: The stance of Kayak.com which places their affiliation with *** in the same category as the other legitimate websites found on Kayak is unacceptable. A *** search of "*** scam" produces 48,hits. Whatever the relationship Kayak continues with ***, dispite the verifiable fraud witnessed by this complaintant, belies an unconcern for the average consumer. I am no longer an "average consumer" in the sense that when another would ( and more than likely plenty of others have) drop any such complaint against Kayak.com regarding ***.com, I will not accept a brush-off maneuver such as has been twice now received from Kayak.com. I did in fact engage in commerce directly with *** but only at the introduction facilitated by Kayak. The *** *** tickets I purchased from *** were not legitimate, and in fact I was hounded in an email two days after purchasing the tickets for more money because *** claimed the quoted airfare had risen significantly. The flight numbers quoted from *** did not exist on the *** *** website. That Kayak now feels absolved of any and all culpability in the facilitation of fraudulent activity represents the low standard of business ethics of Kayak. I would like to furnish for the Revdex.com and Kayak the pertinent emails to this case. These communiques are unavoidable representations of the fraudulent activity suffered by this complaintant from ***. For Kayak to staunchly stand by its affiliation with *** is very unfortunate for this consumer and all e-commerce consumers who would venture to trust Kayak in the future. ( I have attached the emails, but did not attach the second failure notice I received when attempting to reach *** again.)Sincerely,*** ***

Complaint: ***
I am rejecting this response because: "Prices on airline seats, hotel rooms and car rentals can change frequently. "
I exited and re-entered my search on Kayak multiple times and the price was still the same until I clicked on it to book it Their statements are lies It's a scheme to lure the consumer in
Sincerely,
*** ***

Complaint: ***
I am rejecting this response because:I contacted *** directly and they confirmed that the only charge that was made on my card was for the flightThe additional charge made by travelfusion is showing as separateThe additional charge was not listed when I confirmed booking on kayak's website because I would not have bought flight due to this additional chargeThis is not the first time I've had additional charges made to my account on kayak's behalfI am tired of the hidden fees and of the poor customer service I have received from kayakSomeone should have reached out to me to correct this issue as I use kayak all of the time for my flight needs and this kind of treatment will cause me to bring my business elsewhere.
Sincerely,
