I booked a car reservation on the phone… I booked a car reservation on the phone through Hotline Car Rental. I told the agent I wanted to make a reservation for Rochester Minnesota. The agent entered all my information, confirmed my reservation, and emailed me my receipt. I reviewed my reservation and discovered that the agent entered the reservation for Rochester New York. I called customer service to explain what happened. They said they could not issue a refund. I will never deal with Hotline again.

I love it, not sure why it's got bad reviews Not sure why everyone is leaving bad reviews for hotwire - I've had some great deals from the company in the past. In Europe I saved some serious cash on hotels (I had a room worth $350 USD a night for under $150 a night on hotwire). I've saved tons of money on rental cars too under their hot deals - often times more than several hundred dollars compared to competitors. Obviously you need to be careful because you cannot be refunded for any of these rooms or cars.

HOTWIRE has become a SCAM HOTWIRE was fantastic back in the years. Now they are abusing their customers. The commissions are ridiculous. Go back to what you were in 2017 and become a travel giant. You won't survive otherwise

Hotwire "guarantee" means nothing I booked a Hot Rate hotel through the website. I understand you take your chances when booking these rates. But the site said "You’re guaranteed to stay at one of these regional or national chains:" and showed Sheraton, Radisson, Holiday Inn, and Wingate. It further offered a photo from the hotel I was booking. I was booked into the Sonesta Select. I have talked to multiple people there, and get the same rehearsed answers. How can they legally make a guarantee and then not follow through with it?

Scammed by hotwire Scammed by hotwire. I was guaranteed a hotel and then got something totally different. Support didn't care at all and tried with 3 different ppl that all gave long generic responses. They even said the guarantee wording actuality means “examples” which is ridiculous.
