Agoda customer care sirf naam ki care karte hai
I have booked hotel with agoda, at the time of check In hotel refused about booking when I contacted customer care they said we are sorry sir, they are not picking our call. Plz wait we are trying to contacting the property.
But by evening 7 pm Agoda representative cancell the booking and offer me agoda cash. They insist me sir aap hame cancell ke liye kahe tabhi hum aage bad payenge.
I said I need a room why I say cancell booking. And I don't need any agoda cash. No response from representative
Such a nonsense behaviour
Hamne agoda ke through apni booking ki thi, or jab hum check in ke liye gaye to hotel manager said we have not received any booking from agoda
I show my booking details in app, manager said ye hamare paas nahi show ho rahi hai
Then I contacted agoda customer care, customer care said me sir they are not picking our call, we are trying. i said mein aapki baat karwa deta hun but agoda customer care refused sir 'ye proper channel ke through hoga'
After a long discussion with customer care they insist me to say I am ready to cancel the booking, i refused .
They offer me agoda cash i said aap hi rakh lo, maine booking cash lene ke liye nahi ki thi
Agar aapko confirm nahi tha hotel ki side se to aapko booking nahi leni chahiye

Very poor/no support when hotel cancelled me on checkin. Apparently hotel told agda 3 days before my check in date that there wasn’t a room and cancelled my booking. Agoda did not tell me. They did not try to help me find another hotel and left me to sort it myself - elderly lady travelling alone .
Worse still, this was 28th June and still not received a refund!!!! Now 23 July. Really poor service. I have had to pay out twice for hotels in Indonesia now. Really bad service customer support

Extremely disappointing experience with Agoda.
I made a hotel booking on the night of July 21. Agoda then sent me an email stating that my booking was not completed and that no booking had been made. Based on that official email, I contacted the hotel on July 22, and until around 3:00 PM, the hotel confirmed that there was no reservation under my name. I had no choice but to book the same hotel through another website.
Later, I discovered that Agoda had created another booking without sending me any confirmation email or notification. Because I was never informed, I ended up paying for another reservation unnecessarily.
This entire situation was caused by Agoda’s poor communication. If Agoda had informed me that a new booking had been created, I would never have booked through another website.
I have emails and screenshots proving that Agoda first informed me that no booking existed, yet later created another reservation without notifying me. This has been an extremely stressful and frustrating experience, and I expect Agoda to take responsibility and resolve this issue properly.

After agoda charged me the hotel also charged me when I checked in cuz they said it was too cheap on the site, but the real price was the price they had on their system so actually it’s false advertisement that I’ll good that is offering per room

I have never experienced such an incompetent and irresponsible customer service from a company as large as Agoda.
Agoda changed my flight booking, and because of their mistake, I lost USD 170 that I had already paid for checked baggage.
Later, they only refunded USD 125 without giving any reasonable explanation about the missing USD 45. Where did the rest of my money go?
Because Agoda failed to process my baggage correctly, I was forced to pay PHP 19,719 for two checked bags again at the airport. I lost my money, wasted my time, and went through unnecessary stress because of Agoda's own failure.
To make things even worse, every reply I received was nothing but a copy-and-paste template that completely ignored my actual complaint. It honestly feels like nobody even reads customer cases before responding.
This is absolutely unacceptable. If your company makes a mistake, take responsibility instead of making customers pay the price.
This is the last time I will ever book anything through Agoda.
Never again.
Avoid Agoda if you value your money, your time, and competent customer service.

Absolutely disgraceful "customer service." I cancelled a booking (ID 1992674820) well within the FREE cancellation window in March 2026 - and Agoda charged me anyway. That was over 4 months ago. Since then I have been shoved between more than a dozen different agents, forced to resubmit the same documents over and over, and fed endless "we are escalating this" lines that go absolutely nowhere. Nobody at this company takes ownership of anything. It feels like a deliberate stalling tactic to wear customers down until they give up and eat the charge. I have not given up, and I am now escalating this through my bank's chargeback process, Agoda's own privacy and grievance channels, and consumer protection bodies. Do NOT trust Agoda with your money - if anything goes wrong with your booking, you will be completely on your own fighting a company that does not respond and does not care.

I’ve been using Agoda for several years and got my status to platinum. My partner logged into to Agoda on Google and got a better deal than me. After all the years of being a loyal customer to see someone just browsing getting a better deal. I’m done with them bunch of scammers.

I had a medical emergency and am currently hospitalised. I could not fulfill a hotel booking. Agoda said they would refund the money if I provided a letter from the hospital, which I did. But they say that the hospital stamp on the letter is not acceptable! Can you believe it? Agoda is attempting to say whether the design of a medical institution's stamp is acceptable or not. Unbelievable!!!
Agoda have responded that "After reviewing your case, we can confirm that our Customer Service team is already addressing this matter". They addressed one booking but there are several bookings. They are addressing the matter either by claiming that the properties have failed to respond to a request for a refund or have refused to give a refund. Both of these are absolute falsehoods. The properties are willing to give a refund given the circumstances. Agoda are trying to scam the money by telling lies.

I would never book through Agoda again after this experience.
I booked Kingsway Park Hotel because Agoda clearly advertised air conditioning. When I arrived, there was no AC at all. The room was on the third floor directly under the sun and felt like an oven, so I had to check out the same evening.
The hotel staff told me they had never had air-conditioned rooms and that several facilities shown on Agoda were not accurate. The hotel should have checked its own listing, but Agoda is the platform taking bookings and payments, so it should also make sure the information it publishes is correct.
When I urgently searched Agoda for another hotel with AC, I called the properties before booking and discovered that some of those listings were inaccurate as well. Agoda then gave me a response window of up to 72 hours, leaving me to arrange emergency accommodation, extra travel and parking myself.
They initially tried to deny responsibility, but luckily I had taken timestamped screenshots before booking showing that air conditioning was included. Even after I provided clear evidence and documents for both replacement nights, different agents repeatedly overlooked the attachments and sent the same generic responses.
They offered AgodaCash instead of returning my money properly. After being misled and treated this way, I am not stupid enough to accept credit that forces me to use the same company again. I want my refund returned to my original payment method, not trapped with a platform I no longer trust.
Summary:
A total Scam Company

Accessing the agoda app was a bit of a pain, but that is probably Google's fault. Cancelling a previous booking was easily achieved.
found hotels we wanted and at right price, found agado quite easy navigate and to use
They just get the money and provide no support.
Even about the wrong info in the ads.
Basically a hotel can offer amenities they dont have, and leave the customer with a ruined travel experience, then the maximum compensation after 100 follow up emails is 10-15%, i.e. they anyway keep 85-90% of your money even if the agreement is not fullfilled.
Their support does not even read the request. And there are lots of fake ads on their website.
DO NOT TRUST THEM.THEY MAY RUIN YOUR JOURNEY
The platform is basically open for fraudsters to post any ad, and no wonder so many unhappy customers here..
It's even against the competions rules and I see they still have the wrong information on the website. Selling what you dont have is FRAUD!
dont buy from them and save yourself the hassle

Dear Agoda Customer Service,
I am writing to request your assistance regarding a booking that I accidentally cancelled.
I made an honest mistake while trying to manage my booking and unintentionally cancelled my reservation. As soon as I realised what had happened, I contacted the hotel within approximately five minutes to explain the situation and ask if my booking could be reinstated. Unfortunately, I was advised that because I booked through Agoda, only Agoda can assist with this matter.
I was hoping to stay at the property tomorrow night as originally planned. This cancellation was never my intention, and I acted immediately to try to correct the error. I respectfully ask that you review my case and consider making a one-time exception by either reinstating my booking or providing a full refund.
I believe my request is reasonable given how quickly I reported the mistake. I would greatly appreciate your understanding and compassion in resolving this matter.
Thank you for taking the time to review my request. I look forward to your prompt response and hope we can reach a fair outcome.
