I bought an American Express TravelFunds Card to purchase a
flight from my girlfriend. I used Priceline.com to book her flight (had no problems with
the travel arrangements) but I was double charged by Priceline.com.
I contacted
American Express and frankly, since I am using a "Gift Card" so to speak, they
couldn't care less about me being double charged.
I contacted Priceline and was told I should have been charged
by the airline for my fare and then charged a $6.95 or so as a processing fee.
Neither American Express or Priceline once told me "Hey
I am sorry but..." -- All I heard was "Just wait a few days and the charge will
disappear." Quite frankly that is unacceptable policy from both companies.
I will never use the "TravelCard"
Thank God I was not stuck somewhere and
needed my money or Priceline.com ever again.
BEWARE!
