THEY OVERCHARGED ME AGAIN ALMOST $5000
Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creator, a travel agent, describes a significant billing error involving a cruise line that resulted in an unauthorized charge of nearly five thousand dollars. After resolving a previous overcharge issue with the same company, the creator attempted to upgrade a client from an aqua class stateroom to a suite. Although the agent was quoted a difference of three thousand one hundred dollars, the company processed a charge of over eight thousand dollars. The creator explains that the error occurred because the company failed to apply advertised discounts to the final total. This mistake required several hours of phone calls to nullify the transaction and prevent the cruise booking from being canceled entirely. The creator concludes by advising travelers to meticulously monitor every transaction and confirm all pricing details, noting that while many staff members are helpful, training gaps can lead to massive financial errors.
