HOTELING IS A SCAM - DO NOT USE THIS SITE!!!!!
I live in the Ft. Lauderdale, FL area and booked a hotel room for the weekend in Miami Beach, FL. On March 23, 2016 I searched online using Kayak and found a hotel from Hoteling.com for the weekend of July 22-25, 2016. I used my debit card to pay for the hotel and paid it in full in order to receive a cheaper rate. After authorizing the charge of $346.75 I noticed an additional charge of $10.40. When I contacted Hoteling.com I was advised that this was a charge for making an overseas purchase to my card. I didn't make it a big deal since it was only $10 and went with it. I contacted the hotel directly to confirm my reservation and they had my information in the system. When I arrived to the hotel they asked me for my ID as well as the card I used to book my room. When I went to check out of my hotel I was informed that Hoteling.com had cancelled my reservation therefore the hotel re-charged my card so they could get paid for the room. I have searched online and came across how other people have had similar experiences with this company. I have contacted my bank and reported these charges as fraud and hope to be reimbursed. This company is stealing money from people. DO NOT USE THIS SITE, IT IS A SCAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
