Ugur's Thank You Message
“The error was accepted as a result of the correspondence. Points equivalent to 18 USD were awarded. A refund was provided to the card. Hopefully, the other affected parties will be resolved. The Agoda site should not ignore these errors and should grant a call center and Turkish assistant service to a country like Turkey, which is heavily touristic. The bot should provide an option regarding these errors to the artificial intelligence.”

I made a hotel reservation through Agoda.com two days ago for the dates 1–5 June 2026 with reservation ID 1725773596 at a hotel listed as “Alanya MC Arancia” in the Konaklı/Alanya region. After the reservation, I started following the hotel’s Instagram account and there I saw that the hotel’s name was being used for fraud and that they had warned about this. When I checked my Agoda reservation again, I realized that the photos and information on the page had been changed and that images of a different apart hotel were being used. In addition, I saw that the real hotel actually does not have any listing on Agoda. In other words, Agoda is currently publishing a misleading and fraudulent listing by using this hotel name, and my reservation was made through this listing. For this reservation, I paid ₺7,784.25 by credit card. When I tried to resolve the issue through Agoda, the system only directs me to an automatic reservation cancellation request and clearly states that no refund will be made, then keeps sending the same message again. My payment has not been refunded and my grievance continues. I request that my payment of ₺7,784.25 for reservation ID 1725773596 be fully refunded without any deduction, that this fraudulent listing using the “Alanya MC Arancia” name be immediately removed, and that the necessary measures be taken urgently to prevent other customers from being misled and defrauded in the same way through Agoda.

"On 6 March, I made a reservation Via Agoda for this Konağı in Mardin for 17–19 April, in the amount of 8,014.38 TL. My Agoda reservation id is 1705336206, and the payment was made by card ending with 4010. On the same day, 6 March, I submitted a request through Agoda to cancel this reservation with a full refund. Before create the cancellation request, I contacted the Hotel directly. The Hotel clearly states that they had no available rooms for dates, that they would approve my cancellation request without any problem, and that they would not cause me any inconvenience. However, in the e‑mail I received from Agoda, I was informed that my cancellation request had been rejected by the Hotel and that my reservation was still confirmed. When I contacted the Hotel again, they told me that they had not received any e‑mail or cancellation request from Agoda. They also states that if such a request had reached them, they would have approved it. On the Agoda Side, I cannot reach any phone number or e‑mail address, so im unable to open a support Ticket and convey the issue I experiencing directly. I believe that this cancellation request, which the Hotel approve, has been in correctly rejected due to an issue in the Agoda system. I request that my reservation be cancelled and that the full amount of 8,014.38 TL be refunded to my card ending with 4010. I kindly ask that the cancellation process be urgently reviewed by also taking the Hotel’s statement into account"
