  I booked a hotel room thru Hopper totaling $841.38. I took out 3 insurances to make sure i was covered because I knew the trip plans could change. *************** cancellation insurance, and Leave for any reason insurance. I had to leave 3 days early. I witnessed the hotel refunding 3 days including taxes back to Hopper. Hopper is NOW saying I have to reach out to another 3rd party insurances to file a claim. This was never explained when I took the insurance. Hopper is also trying to claim I didn't have a valid reason. It literally says " Leave for ANY reason" insurance. Everyone is dragging their feet when the money has already been refunded on June 1, 2025 back to Hopper. I had to check out because the Birthday girl got sick. But it shouldn't matter. It says for any reason. Now Im having to wait on a company called **********, who keeps asking the reason I left early. I was told I had email conformation of this which I have never been able to find. I am asking for the 3 days plus taxes applied refunded. Not sure why this has become an issue. Very disappointed in Hopper and will probably never use this service again. They have added nothing but stress to an already stressful trip

  Hopper has a promotion where if you refer 15 people to the app you will recover a voucher for $425 to book a hotel. Referred more than 15 people and when going to book for a hotel I get that my card was declined I called the customer service number and they informed that my bank declined the payment but I work for the bank that my card is issued from and there was no attempt to charge my debit card from hopper so that was a lie and then the employee said it was due to a technical error on hopper so book through the hotel directly. I let her know that I would not as Im not going pay more directly through the hotel when I have voucher through hopper and she proceeded to tell me theres NOTHING she can do. I look up my issue on Reddit and see a bunch of people getting the same excuse as I did trying to redeem the voucher. Extremely disappointing that you guys dont honor and lie after getting people to share the app especially after I spoke so highly about the app to those people I referred over.

  I purchased a Collision Damage Wavier through Hopper, provided by ***************, for a car rental from April 10 to April 14, 2025, with Alamo. I was involved in a not at fault accident on April 12 and returned the vehicle on April 14. I immediately contacted Hopper on April 12 to ask for next steps, and they directed me to file a claim through RentalCover via an email link.I filed the claim on April 30 when all necessary documentation was received. Since then, I have been left on action required status with no progress. The only response Ive received from RentalCover was on May 15, saying they were waiting to hear back from the rental company and advising me to take no further steps.However, on May 1, Enterprise/Alamo initiated an insurance investigation and claim against my personal insurance, which I never provided to them directly. As of May 28th, they informed me they received no communication from *********** regarding my filed claim. This contradicts what *********** told me and shows a serious breakdown in communication and service.Ive tried multiple times to reach RentalCover since then, and have only received automated responses or silence. Their BBB profile shows similar unresolved complaints and a consistent lack of customer ******************************, by partnering with *********** and facilitating the sale of this insurance, holds some responsibility here. I purchased the insurance trusting it would be honored and properly supported if needed. That has not been the case.If this issue is not resolved, I will be seeking a credit card dispute for all relevant charges regarding ***************. Their repeated failure to deliver on service proves that I cannot rely on them to uphold any of their coverage terms.I am requesting that Hopper assist in resolving this issue or provide a full refund for all charges related to RentalCover policies purchased through their platform.

  Please accept our sincerest apologies for any frustration and inconvenience you have experienced. We have received your complaint and have carefully reviewed the details provided. We have noted that this pertains to a car rental reservation for a past date with confirmation 1375143636COUNT. We understand that your concern at this time relates to your RentalCover claim. Our records indicate that you have already contacted our dedicated support team regarding this matter. I can see that my colleague has provided the necessary steps to proceed with your RentalCover claim. Please be aware that for reservations made through partners like ************** and Hopper, our access to detailed reservation information is limited due to it being a third-party partner. Consequently, we have no control over their claim policy, which restricts our ability to directly assist with or provide specifics about these concerns.
  
  For the most accurate and efficient help with your RentalCover claim and any other questions about this car rental, we strongly advise contacting **************'s dedicated support team directly via their official webpage at ****************** (***************************). Their team has the necessary access to effectively address your concerns.
  
  We understand your request for a refund. While we would like to assist, the booking was made through external partners, and their policies prevent us from processing a refund directly. We sincerely regret that we are unable to fulfill your request.

  I am writing to reject Hoppers response to my BBB complaint and to provide further clarification, as the core issue has been misrepresented.
  
  To be clear: I am not primarily requesting a refund from Hopper. My original complaint is about the lack of support and accountability Hopper has shown as the platform through which I booked a car rental and purchased third-party insurance via ***************.
  
  Following an incident, I submitted a claim through RentalCover, and despite being the correct party to handle the insurance, they have been largely unresponsive. When I attempted to escalate the matter, Hopper redirected me to **************, which turned out to be completely irrelevant ************** has since confirmed they do not hold any affiliation with my booking or RentalCover in this situation. This misdirection added to my confusion and delayed the resolution of my insurance claim.
  
  My expectation from Hopper was not simply financial it was that, as the facilitating platform and partner of ***********, they would assist in escalating or enforcing communication from their partner, especially when a paying customer is being left without support in a post-accident insurance claim situation.
  
  Summary of Actions Taken:
  I booked the rental through Hopper.
  I purchased the insurance through ***************, via Hopper.
  I filed a claim with RentalCover, and they have gone silent, responding only once and offering no resolution.
  I contacted ************** only because Hopper directed me there in the BBB response.
  ************** has confirmed they are not involved and do not understand why Hopper listed them as the responsible party.
  
  I have also now attempted contact with Cover Genius, the parent company of ***********, and I am awaiting a response. However, I believe Hopper should not have deflected responsibility and should be helping customers resolve issues with their own partners, not rerouting them to unrelated third parties.
  
  Please update the complaint status to reflect that this is not a refund request, but a request for Hopper to take appropriate responsibility and action in ensuring that the insurance provider they work with *********** responds properly and fulfills their role.
  
  Thank you for your time and attention.
  
  Businesses and Customers should be civil, courteous and polite in their responses to complaints. It is important to remain professional and productive when participating in the BBB complaint process.

  I was issued $644.41 in travel credit for a canceled flight booked through Hopper. The Hopper app clearly shows that the credit is for ************** and explicitly states I can use it for new Delta bookings with no rebooking fee. However, after a month of trying to rebook, ***** informed me they cannot access the credit because Hopper or *************** (possibly the ticket issuer) controls it.Hopper has been unresponsive and has not provided a path to use this credit despite the misleading information in the app. I am asking for either 1. Rebooking of a Delta flight using the credit as shown, or 2. A refund due to deceptive communication. This issue has dragged on for over a month and has cost me time and energy with no resolution.

  

  Business Response

  We acknowledge the receipt of the complaint and would like to extend our sincerest apologies for any inconvenience caused. Upon checking your booking details FFBJYR, our records indicate that your itinerary involved a multi-carrier journey provided by both ************** and ***************. I understand that you received a notification indicating the eligibility of your booking for travel credit. We understand your expectation based on this communication and appreciate you bringing this to our attention. Our internal records confirm that you had previously contacted our dedicated support team regarding this matter. Our team diligently communicated with the respective airlines to thoroughly investigate the fare rules associated with your ticket. Regrettably, despite our efforts to advocate on your behalf, the airlines' policies determined that the issuance of travel credit was not an option for this particular transaction. We understand that this news may be disappointing, and we sincerely apologize for any discrepancy between the initial cancellation notification and the final outcome dictated by the airlines' regulations.
  
  Acknowledging the inconvenience and potential distress you have experienced due to this unforeseen cancellation and the subsequent clarification regarding travel credit ineligibility, we have made the decision to offer a one-time exception as a gesture of goodwill. Therefore, we will be processing a refund in the amount of USD ******. This refund will be credited back to the original method of payment, specifically the card ending with the digits 8311, as it is currently registered within our secure system. Please note that refunds typically take 3-10 business days to reflect on your statement. However, in many instances, the process is expedited and completed sooner. It is important to highlight that certain card issuing banks, especially those associated with debit cards, may have longer processing times, extending up to two billing cycles (***** days). This specific timeline is determined by your banking institution, and unfortunately, we are unable to expedite this process.

  I booked a hotel reservation through Hopper which included in the price was resort fee which included daily parking. When we checked in the hotel we were charged for daily parking. I contacted Hopper and was told by an agent the parking was included and the hotel adjusted the parking charge on our credit card but after reviewing the hotel bill I see our credit card was charged $105.00 for parking. I called Hopper and was told the previous agent was incorrect in telling me parking was included. They said I will receive a $50 voucher good to use on a reservation made through Hopper. It was very misleading because the resort fee states parking

  

  Business Response

  Date: 05/24/2025

  Thank you for reaching out to us with your concern. Upon reviewing your booking, I found that the Hopper Confirmation Email, under the Fees section, includes a note stating: You will be asked to pay the following charges at the property, which include a daily parking fee and a resort fee. Furthermore, it appears that when you initially contacted us, you were connected to our automated system, which is designed to assist with general inquiries. We apologize for any confusion this may have caused. We understand how this may have been frustrating. As a gesture of goodwill, weve issued a $50 Hopper voucher to your account, which can be used toward any future flight, car rental, or hotel booking through Hopper. The voucher is valid for one year from the date of issue.

  We booked a car rental in advance for our trip. Hopper instructions did not include the necessary documents to pick up car keys. We had our license , we paid the money, we had our passport but on day of rental we were refused a car rental that we paid over $200. This complaint bothers me because i should have received a refund and all would been acceptable. Instead no transportation, they keep the money and no apology.

  

  Business Response

  Date: 05/24/2025

  Were truly sorry to hear that you were unable to collect your rental car. After reviewing your booking, we noticed that your reservation indicates a U.S. nationality. As outlined under the Important Information section in the app, an International Driving Permit along with your domestic drivers license is required when picking up the vehicle. We understand how frustrating this situation must be, and we sincerely regret any inconvenience it may have caused. Please note that these details are provided during the booking process and remain accessible in the app for your reference. As the reservation is non-refundable, were unfortunately unable to process a refund.

  Dear BBB, I'm contacting you regarding charges that were made to my credit card for multiple hotel reservations on 5/19/25. I made these bookings through *********** but they have no record of these bookings or charges. I also never received any confirmation emails with confirmation numbers, etc. from anyone. I did take a screen shot that shows the hotel info and their confirmation number, and it also shows that there is free cancellation until May 22, but after this date I am subject to a full charge for the room. I called the hotel directly and they said they cannot cancel the room, it must be cancelled through the party who they have on record, which is Hopper USA, Inc. ********* said they are only paid via a digital credit card and I would have to cancel with Hopper? I don't have an account with ********************** and again received no confirmation email so I cannot give any type of reference number. I also have the same situation with another hotel for the same date (I need to cancel it). My bank also confirmed that I was charged for the two hotel rooms and the listed party is TripAdvisor, but again TripAdvisor has no record of these bookings or charges. The bottom line is that the hotel pulled up Hopper USA, Inc. as the party I need to cancel with, but since I received no confirmation email I cannot do that. I appreciate any help you can provide.

  Hopper *** has questionable business practices. I spoke to 5 different managers and was lied to every time. They use call centers in ***** that have no supervision the operators lie and hang up on you they have a 24 hour refund policy after not being able to change a name on a plane ticket. I needed to to change a last name on a plane ticket I booked through their service and was continuously lied to about the process and policy they have internally. I was refused service from several people and in the end I had to cancel my flight and book it ten days later because of a delayed refund so my flight got more expensive. I wasted 6 plus hours of time from this company so I want to be compensated for my time and the difference in price for the flight.

  

  Business Response

  Date: 05/20/2025

  Hello *******,
  
  Apologies for the delayed response and also for the inconvenience you experienced with your Hopper booking KDBMSJ (departure Aug. 21, 2025)
  
  The reason your name correction request was denied was because your booking was operated by ***************** and **************. Please note, name correction is usually not allowed for flight reservation that have multiple airlines on it. This policy is imposed directly by the airline and as a travel agency we are 100% bound to this. However since you called within the free cancellation window the agents could have offered to simply cancel the booking free of charge immediately. Instead of asking you for a copy of the passport and calling the airline for the name correction process, which led to an incorrect impression that your request is possible or could be processed. 
  
  We understand that you're requesting a compensation for the additional cost incurred for the new booking and also for the extra time spent to resolve the issue. Upon checking, your booking was already canceled, and a full refund was processed to your account. Unfortunately, we could no longer issue additional compensation aside from fully refunding the booking. 
  
  Again, we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and hope you have a great day!

  It was not made clear by Hopper that the vehicle was to be an EV. This was the only option in that class when getting to the rental pickup counter. Having to travel nearly 1000 miles, this was not a very practical option. Even asking the Budget representative at pickup if "special" means EV, she said no. Only option to move to ICE vehicle was a minivan at a $90 upcharge. They (Budget) said I need to contact and take it up with the third party booking service. 1 hr call with customer service and a supervisor on 5/13/25 said their policy is that they cannot provide a refund or credit back. How about a policy that their app and vehicle information is guaranteed accurate? It all feels very shady and purposely anti-consumer.

  We sincerely apologize for the difficulties and negative experience you encountered with booking 22977927US0. Upon reviewing your booking record, it appears that it was a past date car rental reservation. We understand your specific inquiry regarding the fuel type of the reserved vehicle. Our system indicates that the vehicle assigned to your past reservation was a KIA ***** equipped with air conditioning and utilizing an electric fuel type, categorized as a Midsize Special. Due to the inconvenience that you have encountered, and as a gesture of our commitment to customer satisfaction, we have made a special, one-time exception to issue a goodwill refund in the amount of USD ******, which will be provided as a Hopper voucher for future travel arrangements.
  
  Here are some good things to know about the Hopper voucher:
  $1 voucher has the same value as 1 USD;
  Vouchers can be used to book flights, hotels, or car rentals in the app;
  Vouchers are not applicable on UA flights
  Vouchers are non-refundable;
  If the voucher value is greater than the cost of the booking, the remaining amount will be forfeited;
  It is valid up to 365 days from the issue date;
  Vouchers can be combined with Carrot Cash, but not other vouchers or promotions;
  You can check your voucher in the Hopper Wallet, accessible at the top of the apps home screen; and
  More details on vouchers can be found in our FAQs - ************************************************************************************************************* and Terms & Conditions - *********************************************************.

  Based on this past experience I have NO plans to use your services in the future so a voucher does not help me. Save your voucher. I am formally requesting a refund of $90 in USD to the original payment method you charged. The fuel type and EV description is NOT made clear on your app. Please upload screenshots or proof of what I booked originally clearly stating it would be an EV. You may do this just as easily as I was able to upload PDFs of the original order confirmation and e-receipt. *** makes a Niro as a standard ICE, a hybrid and also as an EV. I have uploaded screenshots from the *** website to show this as well. Per the Budget representative, "Special" does NOT mean EV.

As much as we would like to process a $90.00 cash refund due to the confusion and bad experience with the car rental booking, we unfortunately do not have a way to do it since we only collected $36.00 for this booking. If you check the receipt, you will see in the breakdown that the prepaid amount was only $36.00 and the rest will be collected by the car rental once you pick up the car. I'm sorry about that!

  Better Business Bureau:I have reviewed the response submitted by the business and have determined that the response does not satisfy or resolve my issues and/or concerns in reference to complaint # ********. Please add your rejection comments below; if you do not provide any details, your complaint will be closed as Answered. 

  The reservation to Budget is orchestrated and originated by you. The $36 is for the supplemental insurance. You should know that is not the actual cost of the total rental for 3 days. Your description was inaccurate on your app/site and said nowhere it would be an EV. That's on you, not Budget. So you lose on $54. That's the solution here as a business to make it right to the consumer who you presented inaccurate product info to. It's the least you can do and use it as motivation to improve the accuracy of the vehicle descriptions on your app ASAP to prevent losing more money. 

  
  Businesses and Customers should be civil, courteous and polite in their responses to complaints. It is important to remain professional and productive when participating in the BBB complaint process.

  Good morning. I am writing to formally express my deep frustration and disappointment regarding an ongoing issue with redeeming Hopper gift cards and the lack of effective support Ive received over the past several days.I purchased six Hopper gift cards via ******** totaling $1,050 (five $200 cards and one $50 card) to use toward an upcoming flight. Per Hoppers stated policy, these gift cards are valid for use within the Hopper app, provided they are redeemed through the Settings ? Gift Card section and will appear in the Wallet section once redeemed.However, every time I attempt to add these gift cards to my Wallet, I receive the following error:We are unable to add the gift card balance to your wallet.I submitted tickets for each gift card and reached out to customer service multiple times. Unfortunately, each interaction has been unhelpful:I was repeatedly told to wait first 24 hours, then 12 more, then another 12. I followed every instruction and waited a total of five days, yet still cannot redeem any gift cards.Customer service agents could not validate or confirm the gift card balances and only repeated the terms and conditions I already referenced.I spoke to a manager, who only asked me to continue waiting and offered a $50 voucher which does not solve the underlying issue.I received a canned response on my support ticket claiming the issue may be due to multiple recent attempts and suggesting I try again tomorrow. I followed this guidance as well still no success.This situation is completely unacceptable. I have followed all instructions, waited patiently, and exhausted all normal support channels. Meanwhile, I remain unable to book a flight, and rising airfare prices may now increase my travel costs due to these delays caused entirely by Hoppers system and lack of adequate support.

  We would like to extend our sincere apologies for the inconvenience you experienced while attempting to redeem your gift cards for your booking. This is certainly not the experience we aim to provide, and we truly regret any frustration it may have caused.
  We can see that our team has reviewed your account and confirmed that your Gift cards are valid for use. We're glad to see that after clearer instructions on how you can utilize your Gift cards, you were able to book a flight reservation using your Gift cards along with the voucher that was added to your account. You can expect an update regarding your flight booking within the next 48 to 72 hours.
  We genuinely appreciate your patience and understanding as we continue to make improvements to our app and services. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to make this right.
