Priceline.com Deceptive practices Internet
Bid on two rooms in Hilton Head, South Carolina. Paid a 20% hotel fee on top of my bid price. Did not see this fee anywhere until after the bid was accepted. At that point it is too late to cancel the reservation. This hidden fee made booking these rooms more expensive that other travel service providers who did not charge this fee when I attempted to book the same hotel with them. So essentially my bid price was 20% higher. Seems very deceptive to me. Like a bait and switch routine which I believe most states have laws against.
