Revdex.com: I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted] , and find the amount requested of $was credited to my cardIt is unfortunate that Orbitz did not resolve this issue when we requested it of them, and that we had to go through Revdex.com to resolve the mistake made by Orbitz's agentWe will never be using Orbitz againWe thank Revdex.com for their service in helping keep businesses honest Sincerely, [redacted]
I recently booked a trip via Orbitz (online) This trip was booked arriving into one destination (Chicago, IL) and leaving via (Dayton, OH) In the midst of that booking online a screen popped up for a [redacted] Promotion for an [redacted] Rental CarI signed on for the promotionHowever, there was nowhere in the promotion to specify whether or not the trip was multiple destination or round-tripHaving rented cars many times before I did not think it would be an issue and since the promotion was linked to my flight it only made sense that the car rental would reflect the same arrival and departure locationsHowever, when I arrived in Chicago I was told that if I wanted to drop the car off in Dayton Ohio I must pay an ADDITIONAL $to [redacted] to change my itinerary--which was incorrectly listed as a round-trip destinationNeedless to say I could not drop the car off in Chicago if I was flying out of Dayton Ohio! After multiple failed attempts to get anyone from Orbitz to help me change the reservation that was incorrectly listed as a roundtrip vehicle rental I was charged an additional $(multiple times!!!) via ***o to change my reservation to accurately reflect a trip I had booked on Orbitz' siteMoral of the story: DO NOT BOOK WITH ORBITZ and most certainly DO NOT USE [redacted] E PROMOTIONSI will also not deal with ***o eitherWhat these three companies did successfully and in complete cooperation with each other (but not with their customer) was overcharge me for what was supposed to be a "promotion"I have had to file complaints with ***o for charging me multiple times for one transaction when in fact I never should have had to pay them at all because I had already paid ORBITZ (via [redacted] ) for the rental carWhat should have been a $rental car was, in fact, a $rental car for a total of days!!! Orbitz has lost my business because no one from their company would help me change my car rental reservation to accurately reflect my trip (as it should have been originally!) [redacted] is a completely inaccessible company and ***o charged me multiple times on top of my Orbitz promotion for the same vehicleI would like a complete refund for my rental car booking or my complaint stands
Complaint: [redacted] I am rejecting this response because: To quote Orbitz "Unfortunately, customers are unable to review the actual amounts during the booking process; only after the booking is complete, and the confirmation email is generated with the service fee amount to be advised," So the fee is not disclosed until it is too late to book elsewhere and avoid paying the fee.Orbitz also said “Most airline tickets purchased on Orbitz.com do not include a service feeCertain tickets carry a fee ranging from $to $25." For my transaction their fee was more than the $maximum they claim, I was charged a fee of $43.98I am seeking a refund of the $fee Sincerely, [redacted]
