Agoda Reviews

While it is fair to say you will find some negative Agoda reviews below, plenty of positive remarks have been left by our members. While some people have complained about their cashback not tracking, others who have booked with the hotel service through us have clearly had no such issues. Some of the feedback you will find includes “perfect, paid on due date — no complaints from me”, “confirmed and payable within five months” and “cashback confirmed and payable within specified period”.

You will also find positive Agoda review feedback about the deals available on the Agoda site and the service provided by them. Our members have said such things as “great deals on hotel accommodation”, “great bargains to be found”, “good company with some fantastic rates. Very reliable” and “good value for money”. If you take a look on Trustpilot, you will find the vast majority of customers who have left reviews have been very complimentary, with comments including “easy and clear to book with competitive rates”, “best thing ever” and “best price and easy for booking”.

Less hotels available
When using Topcashback to book hotels on Agoda, Agoda make lots of the options unavailable by saying they are fully booked, when in fact they are not. It makes using Topcashback pointless if you're still to browse for places to stay. It must be so they only select certain hotels eligible for cashback, but its a very poor customer experience.

Very slow at paying out
You can find agoda cheaper going direct than through topcashback, unless they have a special cashback offer on. Be aware they take months to pay out after your stay, unlike expedia group.

Never payout
I had several bookings, after a year they declined them all when the conditions at the time were met. I don't use them now.

Don't bother
Booked a hotel through them and they declined valid claim after 12 weeks without providing any reason.

Don't bother
As others have said if you use the link from Topcashback to Agoda the prices are more than 10% more than if you didn't use it. So you're not getting a room any cheaper and may not get the cashback. Pointless.

Availability and pricing is different after clicking through from TCB
Some hotels become "unavailable" when clicking through from TopCashback. Prices also change depending on which links you use. Agoda increases the price when you click through from TopCashback - obviously this defeats the point of using a cashback site.

never buy a airlines ticket through them. Shame on topacashback
You search for flights and agoda comes up. topcashback stated 10% on all bookings you book a flight and it sends you through to their sisiter site opodo it then does not honour the cashback it is a scam topcashback backs this scam. once again topcashback does not control and check its site properly. does not protect its users. no users no topcashback !

No Cashback received/no tracking despite clicking through from TCB
I have booked through Agoda twice in the past 12 months, using Top Cashback each time, promising 10% cashback, but none of these transactions tracked in my TCB account. I have submitted disputes, and they have denied one of the claims (even with proof of purchase and clicking through the TCB website to get me to Agoda). Still waiting for a outcome on the last booking/dispute, but I don't hold out much hope. Agoda need to step up their game and pay out what they promise, and TCB should be more forceful/stop siding with the retailer. I am not going to book through Agoda anymore.

Been good this year
They've been pretty good on this years holiday with all of the hotels booked receiving cashback. Not keen on their own version of cashback though, would prefer to receive it all through TCB.

AVOID, they increase prices when clicking through TCB then refuse to pay.
Avoid them like the plague,. I've found that they increase prices when clicking through TCB and also refuse to pay cashback. Customer service is non existent when they misadvertise rooms, I booked a room with a pool and got a shoebox double. Their solution was a few quid in Agoda credit.

Appalling company do not book with them.
Booked a hotel for a week in Bali. Nothing much. But turned up, not expecting us. No AC. No lock on room door. Was grim. Filthy. 1 of 7 plugs in the room worked. Everything filthy. Not even worth wasting your time complaining to Agoda. They don't care. Customer service is all AI bots. No managers no escalations. Reported as fraud to credit card company.

Patchy pay-outs, long delays, some purchases don't track
I used Agoda for multiple hotel bookings for a trip to Asia in Nov 24. I made sure to follow through from Topcashback to the finalising booking in a smooth set of steps to avoid the risk of losing the tracking (eg avoided the "back" button or refresh). A few of my bookings eventually paid out, but those for the more expensive hotels/longer stays didn't track. Similarly, a booking in Cambodia where the payment was made at the hotel rather than at time of booking didn't pay out. I raised claims for all untracked bookings within a week and explained that some would involve payment at the venue. But after a long wait, was eventually told Agoda didn't accept the claim. As others have said, Agoda seem to have a rather dubious approach to paying out, whilst advertising a very high percentage rate to attract business.

Prices are higher when using Topcashback
Prices are higher when using Topcashback. It's cheaper to go direct or click through from TripAdvisor.

Agoda Cashback
I generally find with Agoda that transactions track, are confirmed and eventually paid out. They are NOT fast payers, positively tardy. It's important to note that the (recently increased) payout time of 13 weeks applies from the date of the end of your stay. But they do pay... eventually. With Agoda (a.k.a. Booking Holdings - booking dot com) it's all about their cash flow - not yours or TCB's for that matter. It's moot whether the likes of Expedia (owner of Hotels dot com) are any better.

Better than the complimentary toiletries
Hotel booking swift to track, payable within a month, good experience.

DON'T BOTHER TO APPLY
No valid explanation why cashback not granted. Cashback high to entice you to use them...but you'll never get it.

Scam
Rubbish. It did initially track for the correct amount, and 2 months later they suddenly changed to a very small value that I have no idea from what place they pulled it exactly. This site is more and more disappointing, everything feels like a scam lately.

High cashback amount expected but not received - claim raised
I made a large purchase but the cashback was not paid - I didn't use any voucher codes and as far as I was concerned adhered to all of the terms of the offer. Smaller cashback amounts have been received but not this larger one? On this occasion the booking I made wasn't the cheapest but when I factored in the cashback it made the booking more competitive. I raised a claim through customer services but despite my best efforts Agoda would not give full details of why the cashback failed ......so I still don't know why this wasn't paid - which is really frustrating ! This could all be avoided if customers are kept fully informed. Not too much to ask when high value purchases are being made

Dishonest - best offers unavailable or more expensive
Most accomodation available on their site (directly) is not available or more expensive when opening Agoda via Topcashback
