Traveling & Tourism

Took a trip to Ireland. Received multiple quotes from various car companies for our car rental. Hertz and Priceline were the cheapest. Hertz came in at 554.78 EUR, and Priceline came in at 328.54 EUR. Both prices included the insurance. I initially booked with Hertz, but then cancelled that reservation to go with Priceline because it was significantly cheaper than Hertz. I booked the car and took care to ensure that I selected the insurance. I received a confirmation of my reservation and printed it. I At no time did I ever receive anything stating that the insurance wasn't included, or that it didn't go through with my booking.

Showed up in Ireland, expecting to get our car for 328.54 EUR. Europcar told us that the Priceline reservation did not include insurance, furthermore, the price that Priceline quoted us was not the same as the car rental. Car rental ended up costing 439.81 EUR and then additional 390.00 EUR for the insurance, with taxes came to 859.81 EUR.

I emailed Priceline from Ireland... No response. I called Priceline when we got home, was told that they'd have someone call me back... Never heard back. Called again, was treated rudely and was completely dismissed. Asked to speak with a supervisor. That supervisor also treated me rudely and refused to help me. When I asked again to speak with another supervisor, I was told no. I was told to write a letter to the Sr. Vice President of Customer Relations at the Priceline Headquarters. When I asked for the names of the agents I'd spoken with previously so that I could account for them in my letter, I was told I could not have them.

Priceline's quoted price was a lie. Priceline did not notify me that the insurance was not included. They are unwilling to refund the difference. They are unwilling to help rectify the situation in any manner. They are rude and dishonest. I have been a loyal Priceline customer for years but after this experience, I will never use this company again.
