QUOTE(stargate8 @ Feb 12 2012, 12:41 AM) as long as you can input the name of the person who going to stay at the hotel. hmm....but there is no guest namecoz hotel only acknowledge or allow guest to check-in as per booking stated guest name  they register to the name of the account owner...1 name only and mind asking.. why per night there saying RM440 and the tax is RM53.70(6 nights) but the final price is RM27XX.XX??? not RM24XX.XX??? and thn i go searched asiaroom...also RM440 but final price RM26XX.XX?? ps: i checked booking.com...same as asiarooms..RM26XX.XX This post has been edited by MR_alien: Feb 12 2012, 12:48 AM |

QUOTE(stargate8 @ Feb 12 2012, 12:59 AM) meaning agoda not always the cheaper source. hahaha....i tried one of the link above always look at the final price, which is the grand total. i used booking.com before, its trusted as well. http://www.hotelscombined.com/ i search the same hotel...same room...from RM404 become RM389 grand total become RM25XX.XX and yes...it linked back to agoda.com for booking why..same site but different price if link from another site? hotel tax from RM53.70 become 40.41 HAHAHAA....what a joke This post has been edited by MR_alien: Feb 12 2012, 01:04 AM |

QUOTE(stargate8 @ Feb 12 2012, 01:17 AM) have you complete the booking? its truelooks like, its true that not every system is perfect. try clear your browser cache and search again, using 2 browser and 2 sites when i click booked...the subdomain is NYC..not HKG they seem cannot process my debit card AIYA it came back this to me QUOTE We are unable to pre-authorize your credit card. Please ensure that the number is entered correctly. AGODA only accepts credit cards (Visa, Master Card, AMEX, JCB and Carte Bleue). If you continue to experience the same problem, please try a different credit card or contact your bank. Thank you who can help me.....if not asiarooms and booking.com is cheaper but still consider expensive This post has been edited by MR_alien: Feb 12 2012, 01:22 AM |

QUOTE(donchaka @ Feb 12 2012, 01:36 AM) not sure if this help hmmm...haizzz i used to work in hotel line. as far as i know, debit card cannot be pre-authorized, it must swap as sale straightaway. that's why whenever guest pass us a card to pre-authorize for certain amount (if they prefer to use card instead of cash to pay for deposit), we have to check if that card is credit or debit card. but just now the website go to HKG server(the subdomain say HKG not NYC) the payment page got through..same card no problem but that was way way more expensive |
